this new Game Ready driver provides a number of new gaming features and benefits based around G-SYNC technology, Dynamic Super Resolution

Please please please please let this mean SLI+GSync+DSR now works.....!!!!!!

Also stated as being the 980Ti driver

E; Still no DSR for SLI+Gsync :mad:

The GOD driver xD

^^ The "accidentally" fry kepler cards we've got a 980ti to sell driver.

Few new options in various parts of the control panel as well as new gsync options.

Coming from AMD, feeling a bit like a ferrero rocher right now- You are spoiling me Nvidia!

Savour the nutty after-taste of the driver crashing while browsing.

I assume the new option lets you uncap gsync when rendering over the refresh rate.

I just wonder what the problem is?

Actually, I just thought of something it might be as I wrote the question

, I wonder is it the framebuffer size on the Gsync module? It's big enough to handle the DSR output in a single card configs but not SLI.

hmmm maybe not

Good info and will be handy for some users :cool:

What did you get?

rtho782 · 1 Jun 2015 at 08:35

I've had the red gsync light on my rog swift on the whole time, even at the windows desktop, for the last few driver releases.

Thought something like this was on the way.

I wouldn't have thought so as gsync handles native 4k fine.

It's annoying more then anything and will be a reason to stop me buying a pair of 980ti's in favour of just the one.

970, and enjoying it immensely like I did with the 290X, but it has it's frustrations just like the 290X.

don't know what I was better off with though, non game ready solid drivers or game ready unstable drivers-YMMV, but that's my take on it.

What res you at? Im going to upgrade from a 670 so looking out something newer.

tommybhoy · 1 Jun 2015 at 14:53

1080p, would be a good boost up from a 670, it's a fantastic gpu.

Same here, it's happened with loads of people.
It's nice to know if it's on or not though
