**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

[Davanius]

Idle core clock still being too high at 144hz is a shame because it negates the heat saving brilliance of pascal chip. Runs 59c at 144hz and 37c at 120hz.

 

[humbug]

375.95 causes my HOF 980ti to lock its clocks. will not go into 3d mode at all lol. reverted back to old driver and all is well

My 970 is doing that on these drivers too, GPU and Memory.

wtf is going on with Nvidia's broken drivers these days?

 

[opethdisciple]

I'm not seeing any of these issues. (970)

What games are you guys seeing these issues in?

 

[atomic7431]

my interim 980ti also has locked clocks with latest drivers...

My EVGA 1080 replacement arrives back today.

 

[Dirk Diggler]

So what's the latest stable driver?

 

[atomic7431]

i just went back to 375.70 and clocks are good again

 

[phil-k]

I installed 375.95 and my gtx1080 runs Battlefield 1 smoother now with not so much juddering

 

[pastymuncher]

I am running 375.95 with no problems on my 1070. Clocks are back to normal unlike the previous release.

 

[enigma27]

people with higher clocks not in games are you making sure to change power settings in NV control panel from optimal to adaptive?

Optimal seems to have come in not long ago and is causing people problems with clocks not ramping down. setting to adaptive seems to put it back to the way it used to work. had similar issue on a 980 in my second machine.

I always use adaptive but the problem still exists.

 

[Grandmaster Fap!]

Yeah with latest driver my 1070 isnt hitting idle, clocks only drop to high 600s even with adaptive mode.

 

[Dicehunter]

Got a favor to ask, Could someone check their desktop VRAM usage on a 1080 and report back please ? Would be appreciated

1080FE 383MB with 3440x1440 + 2560x1440 with chrome open

 

[atomic7431]

1080 3440x1440 vivaldi open with quite a few tabs and usage is 498mb

 

[whyscotty]

394Mb - 3440x1440

 

[syks]

so is the new driver safe?

 

[Westie]

every driver is safe.. not had a problem since having my 970 now have a 1080..

 

[r7slayer]

every driver is safe.. not had a problem since having my 970 now have a 1080..

Lol not every. I had a bad experience with one driver that put my computer into a boot loop. Was a right headache sorting it. I leap frogged that driver by about 3 releases later. But thats my only main issue ive had other than clocks staying in 3d mode. Fixed with changing performance settings.

Thanks peeps, Was just curious as earlier I only had the forums in chrome open and had over 1GB of memory being used on a 2560x1440P 144Hz G-Sync panel.

ok ok lol maybe I should have phrased it better, is there any problems with this new driver? as I have read some horror stories online, some people seem to be having trouble and some don't? will battlefield 1 run better with this driver?
