**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

I'm rocking the 8700g and my windows 11 experience is way smoother than it ever was with NVidia. Everything feels and looks much smoother. Imo Nvidia got lazy and let their drivers depreciate, whilst AMD has continue to improve theirs.

Nvidia are now an AI company, not a GPU company. "Wooooosh, beyond fast, i am the sound effects, the more you buy the less you pay"

I've just come from Nvidia to AMD, i'm not going to labour on it in this thread but AMD just feels like a much more polished product, without a doubt.
 
Well... i finally fixed this long standing issue, how? I upgraded my drivers, to AMD.

Never had that issue with my 4070 Ti, I wonder what causes it.

No issues here but obviously everyone has different experiences. AMD reddit has been full of people reporting stuttering issues lately:

Same.
 
I've not seen that issue either on either the 3080 Ti or 4090. The scrolling stutter in browsers was fixed in the hotfix driver, it also fixed the vsync stutter but I never had that (Gsync user).

ever since i had the 551.23 driver installed iv noticed the screen go randomly black for 2 seconds then comes back on. didnt happen to me when playing cyberpunk, happens when usually web browsing or sometimes just desktop idle.
anyone else experience this?
whats really odd is that when it happens i check event viewer and there is no record there of a driver tdr crash.
