361.60 seem to be better for 3D though
Reading back I have a couple of issues... First I have the 144hz Monitor and it idles at 800Mhz~ which isn't too much of a bother but reinstalling the latest drivers didn't really help at all. I even tried the 361.60 and its the same...
2nd is the below, when i'm gaming my memory clock actually goes down?? Idle its at 3500 and when i load up a game it drops to 3300... any ideas on this?
I haven't tried to OC or anything yet and i have the EVGA 980TI SC+ Edition

I hear there's a bug at 144hz again. I would keep it at desktop at 120hz and when gaming 144hz. Problem solved
nevermind, sorted it.. complete uninstallation and reinstallation of drivers solved it. just the annoying 144hz bug now ;p
Means it's worth RMAingif it doesn't work tomorrow and worth the postage, but who knows what you will get back too, so it's a risk, you may get a good ASIC or worse, but 65 is on the worse scale for classifieds and I think probably the reason the person sold it, but worth taking if it still isn't being nice. (But wouldn't worry too much about ASIC too but nice to have a 70%+)
Mines got samsung ram and 73.6% ASIC
I would want 70% + ASIC on a Classified.
What is ASIC Quality and how does it affect overclocking?
Hi mate,
got my replacement RMA - in all honesty the temps seem around the same so I'm going to say this is normal for my setup, can't be two cards that are not right so it's probably an airflow issue I will have to sort. One good thing is that the ASIC quality on this card is 83.5% and I'm gaining another 300 or so points in 3D Mark now as well. So it was worth it considering the previous ASIC was only 65%. It's Hynix ram btw not Samsung.
I've seriously never had so many driver issues since I was using the old AMD 4870X2. Since getting my 980Ti's I've had so many issues. I'm getting so fed up at the moment.
After smooth sailing on Win8.1 I upgraded to windows 10 and now I'm getting driver kernel crashes again, and my monitors going black, and the rare BSOD now. Doesn't matter how many clean installs I do of the OS or drivers.
What the heck is happening to NVIDIA; their Windows 10 drivers are a mess it seems.

Not really had that much trouble with Win 10 and Nvidia drivers, no more than normal with new games anyway. I do however have a games specific pc and concentrate on one game at a time.
Andi.
If i have my monitor set to 144hz my GPU idles at 912Mhz/3505Mhz, googled to my fingers were sore couldn't find much except this. Doesn't seem to be a bug http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2899

My computer is my workstation for Adobe Premiere and Photoshop, along with gaming. Seems they've been having so many issues lately it's really annoying.
Lately the biggest issue is also running games in Borderless fullscreen windowed mode, driver just cant deal with it. Never mind if an Adobe program is also open on the system. Even get driver crashes in WoW of all things.

It's got to be your system, I literally haven't had any driver issues with Nvidia with Titan X SLI
And I've gone through about 15 driver versions in 10 months of owning them. Had Windows 10 from the outset.
Maybe you have an underlying issue with the RAM? Or perhaps you have a slightly unstable CPU overclock?
Not the case as I've gone through all the hardware so many times since building the system last march. If you go back through the thread to the Witcher 3 launch you'd see where I and many others had issues. The NVIDIA forums themselves were rife with angry folks. Then it was all fixed after NVIDIA spent ages on TDR issues and hot fixes. Since then on Windows 10 it's been a mess again.
So many issues NVIDIA even had a hotfix for people that use Adobe software

Even that is dodgy, and still having issues with my GPU's not downclocking at 120/144Hz either.

I'm using 980 Ti SLI on Windows 10 without issues. Played through the entirety of Witcher 3 a couple of months ago without any problem.
Might be helpful to at least know that others are fine using the same setup. Must be a combination of drivers/hardware in your case.

In some situations with high refresh rate/high resolution and/or with certain programs running the GPU can't downclock on the desktop that is normal behaviour in some cases.
Its also not that unusual that when 2 or more programs are trying to access hardware acceleration on the GPU, especially without exclusive mode to shunt priority to the fullscreen one results in causing performance and/or compatibility issues.

Must be aye. Still no idea what. I can render projects for hours on end with my CPU, RAM and GPU's pegged at max and then the odd game will throw it a curve ball.
It was fine for so long until recently, at least the latest hotfix stopped the constant driver crashes in Adobe, but it's not fixed everything.
It was downclocking fine for months, now on Win10 with these new drivers it doesn't anymore :/
Not had a single issue with anything since I did a clean Win 10 install. I had shed loads of issues on win 7 and then upgraded to win 10 via the upgrade tool. The issues I was having where taken across to win 10. All went away with clean win 10 instal. Some of you may know the nightmare I was having with GTA V, not had a GFX crash since I wiped and installed.
I had this a few months back, removed it along with the driver, ddu, then clean install of the driver gfe package fixed it.
All in all the whole nvidia package is running excellent for me and has been pretty much since I moved to w10.
