**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

What did that DWM bug actually do ? Stop you from using G-Sync ?

Nothing other than use a small % of CPU resources.

Oh, it was only the processor? Thought it was hammering the SSD/NVME... and a smidge of GPU usage unless someone can correct me?

Some were reporting much higher usage with the dwm.exe issue.... I had to go back to the previous drivers though as I was getting this awful hitching in my games! Very odd

 

[V F]

All games or some? Did you run LatencyMon alone to see what the bars were doing?

 

[syks]

So newer drivers are poop? im not having any problems with the driver im currently on but was thinking of maybe installing newer ones as a few behind, if they are poop wont bother though lol

NVCleanstall lets you customize the NVIDIA GeForce Driver package by removing components that you don't need (or want). This not only keeps things ti

www.techpowerup.com

works well with 3090.

I hope we'll get a native geforce driver for win11 22H2 very soon with more optimizations for games.

Rock solid driver on both my RTX2060 and RTX2080S. Very stable FPS and very fluid feeling/smoothnes in games.KEEPERS!
Installed fine with nvcleaninstall + before I Have added PHYSYX and OPTIMUS FOLDER from previous driver, so my laptops with both RTX2060 and 2080S could work without problem.

Working brilliantly for both my RTX and GTX!! Just needed to set the right template ie for my GTX it was "Quadro M4000 as a hardware template and signature has been ticked".

Not many will do this though as I do like modified drivers
