NVIDIA GeForce 496.13 WHQL driver download & Discussion

Ok guys we have spoken about this driver for 25 pages, now could be fine for a new driver and ready for
Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy @ManuelG

Edit: Coming up GDR 496.49

 

Someone figured that 496.13 does not crash without the hi-res textures, so something differs with them larger textures between 496.13 and 472.12.
Still being positive about that the issue has something todo with the changes to NVCPL shader precaching.

 

Thanks, i have the high resolution pack download (4k) so it may not be that.


cheers

That is with an 3090 FE btw.

Solution there is also reverting back to 472.12

Seems that ManuelG is working faster than the rest of the staff


GAME OVER
THIS PAGE IS TOAST.

 

I think so

 

That's pretty much what I've found out as well... As for the HiRes textures, that is not the case unfortunately...

 

my black flickering and black/red pixels are definitive fixed by upgrading Firefox to 94.beta9
i can still easy re pro if i switch to firefox release version, after i open any windows apps( together with ff in the background ) like xbox app my desktop is glitching out with TDRs and graphic artifacts but until i restart my pc and use firefox beta the bugs are gone

i'll test later on windows 11 with Release FF

 

Getting same TDR using firefox youtube video as mentioned in this post with this driver. Any suggestions?

 

To disable hardware decoding for VP9 in Firefox (it's a crappy stutterfest anyway with all GPU vendors and Mozilla are not able to fix it), go to about:config and set media.wmf.vp9.enabled = false. Or to disable hardware decoding for all codecs, set media.hardware-video-decoding.enabled = false.

 

that link does not go to that driver they are not up yet on the site

cheers

 

They deleted the announcement post for the new driver

 

496.49 tomorrow

 

Uh, thats absolutely entirely false.

vp9 hardware decoding is fine in firefox and chrome, if you're having issues with it thats completely on your end.

 

Thanks came checking for this. Assuming this will be the Guardians of Galaxy driver I am looking for.

 

Yes.
Our latest GeForce Game Ready driver ensures the definitive gaming experience in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, Age of Empires IV, Battlefield 2042 Early Access, Call of Duty: Vanguard, Chivalry 2, Forza Horizon 5, Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, Jurassic World Evolution 2, and Riders Republic.

Additionally, we’ve got support for 6 new G-SYNC Compatible gaming monitors, and 6 new GeForce Experience Optimal Playable Setting profiles.

 

Please test 4k 60fps VP9 judder test video with exact 60Hz or shut up, thanks.
It's 100% reproducible on all three graphics vendors and I got it confirmed by other users and tested it on different systems as well. No need to "discuss" this further.

 

just you, fix your crap.

lol, doubt.

btw, exact 60hz doesn't exist.

 

I can't fix you being blind as a bat toward stutter and being held by your narcism from accepting it. This is more of a task for your shrink.

It is exact enough for smooth playback in Chrome for minutes (which apparently was brought up by you as a miserable gas lighting attempt). Whereas in FF, it is not, as it is broken also on your system, no matter how hard you try to deny it.
