**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

This should be stickied:

Before you post regarding driver issues, make sure you have reverted your PC back to stock settings. That means remove any manual over clocks and revert back to factory settings. (On all hardware)

This makes it a million and one times easier to trouble shoot.

It doesn't matter if stable on previous drivers. It isn't now. Its impossible for Nvidia to account for all configurations, other than how the cards where designed.

Had issues in WoW with the latest 358.50 drivers (dc's, camera flipping, target selection dropping) so rolled back to 355.98 and all's well. Odd thing is it didn't seem to be a graphical issue, but the Nvidia drivers causing issues with my Steelseries mouse driver software lol.

Yes, I understood what you posted. I'm saying that I've never seen a video driver make you disconnect in an online game or break your mouse.

Did you install the full Geforce experience nonsense or just the video driver?
 
Had both installed but they are separate, removed GFE anyway just to be double sure.

As far as I could tell, the 358.50 drivers conflict or interfere with the Steelseries drivers, and they were creating phantom key presses that caused issues in game (target deselecting, buttons held down losing down status when panning) plus connection issues (presumably due to prolonged phantom spamming causing a desync or something).
 
GFE wasn't installed, I don't think it was the Nvidia driver directly screwing with the mouse, I think it was the Nvidia driver screwing with the mouse driver/software.
 
Since drivers never intercept input in this way it has to be related to GFE or the new share overlay thing they're working on.

I've seen all sorts of crazy unrelated stuf over the years. My favourite was any NV Optimus supporting driver higher than a specific build stopping a Cisco client less SSL OCX driver from working correctly.
 
Ok got the latest drivers, in 144hz mode the card still won't downclock on idle and the temps still ramp up.

Also what settings should I run now for Gsync? I just have Gsync turned on and Vsync in Nvidia Controller turned off?
