**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

[Neil79]

Am I being dumb or do those graphs make no sense? They all seem labelled with the same driver revision.

haha I thought the same, but they are not

One is .25 the other is .52, but they should've made the charts easier to read

 

[Gregster]

They fixed the Geforce driver tab a short while after they released the drivers. I am sure there will be a thread on it soon though about how bad nVidia drivers are

Yep and BSOD's, even on Win 10

I'll avoid

 

[Supernaut91]

Crazy how Microsoft have been pushing these out onto users too.

 

[JGStonedRaider]

It's almost like Win 10 test build is for testing.........crazy huh

 

[a66as]

anyone tested the latest drivers?

 

[opethdisciple]

Glitch on the Nvidia website at the moment.

I did a driver search and the latest drivers have reverted to an older version:

GeForce Game Ready Driver WHQL 345.20 24.2.2015

Or is there something obvious I'm missing?

Press search and your see it's reverted to an old version.

 

[Twirlywoos]

A new driver popped up in Windows 8.1 Update Center. No details on it though.

 

[opethdisciple]

Latest version on the Nvidia website is still reporting:

GeForce Game Ready Driver WHQL 345.20 24.2.2015

 

[varkanoid]

The one on Geforce.co.uk is showing 347.52 - 10.2.2015.

Think someone altered the date of 345.20 by mistake !

Ahhhh, I see what you mean. Weird, as when I did the search for my link, it just gave the latest. I didn't archive search mind.
