**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

ive had weird issues with games starting up

if i run a youtube in top screen (4K) game on main screen 1440P 144hz get all sort of weird flicking on that driver 362.00 is much better for me stablity 7 fps wise

BF4 364.72 - 100-11fps
BF4 362.00 - 144 Almost always
 
It is strongly recommended to stay away from 364.xx drivers! Way too many users are reporting problems with this branch. If you don't experience any trouble at all, you may keep it. it is up to you.
 
364.72 nuked my windows install, seemed okay for the first day, however I'm not sure I restarted the system after installing them.

Next day when I booted the system I had graphics artifacts and then the system immediately froze a few seconds after getting into Windows, it did this every time unless I went into safe mode, tried rolling back and installing older drivers but I kept getting the same thing, tried driver cleaner and same.

It's not very often I have to reinstall Windows because of dodgy drivers, all fine after a reinstall, sticking to 362.00 for now :mad:

Holy **** these 364.x are causing people a lot of grief. It's almost unbelievable at this point. I'm one of the lucky ones it seems. Only issue i have is bad performance here and there but that's it.
 
I've been on these drivers since release and haven't had any issue's? Wins 10 Pro, i7 6700k @4.5, Gigabyte Xtreme GTX970 been playing Dark Souls 3 all running perfect. These drivers have been great for me so far.
