**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

Does this new nvidia driver still allow for certain things the old driver does fine:
I always want forced in all 3d apps:
Clamp Negative LOD bias
16x AF
FXAA forced (even if I use other AA forms like MSAA/TAA/SSAA/whatever, I always want extra post processing AA).
AA Gamma correction enabled
The lack of FXAA makes me not want to go to the red camp, but, if Nvidia removed this from the drivers ( I am on old drivers and in the don't fix what isn't broken camp) I might as well go for the 7900GRE over the 4070S.

I know this isn't what you asked but as you seem to want to force AA on top of AA you obviously like an image that doesn't have jagged edges.
Have you played around with DLDSR? If you are chasing image quality it's very good. I use it in a few games to really clean the image up at 1440p.
Could actually give you a better image that what you are doing above
Soldato
1440P is not an option, my TV's are all 4k, so 1440p results in blurred image, either 1080p (which means 1pixel is 4 px) or 2160p...
As for FXAA, it works on games that don't naively support MSAA and improves on MSAA imo while costing next to no performance...
As for jaggies, yeah, I prefer to have crappy textures over jaggered models, jaggies make me want to stab my eyes.

I don't use Adrenaline to install new drivers so I don't know if they do that feature? as I prefer manual download/cleanup/install with new drivers, but that's a great inclusion, looking good Nv!I like the new NV app's breakdown when a new driver is out, easier to see the changes etc, just nicer layout.
Better late than never for the catchup!

Would be interesting to find out why the Nvidia App lowers performance in a lot of scenarios when it's basically just a newer control panel.
Probably doing a lot of hooking of the game process, hopefully for feature/functionality purposes rather than telemetry - I've not bothered with the app so far myself. I dunno if they had Instant Replay enabled when doing these comparisons.

It's just another thing competing for system resources. The current control panel has no interaction with games, goes away completely when it's closed and was designed for XP-era machines originally. This new one has an overlay with a bunch of features that directly hook into and run alongside games. Unless Nvidia plan to beam a co-processor into your system as part of the driver installation process, all that stuff is taking up CPU (and perhaps GPU) time that would otherwise be spent rendering your game. If your system is running flat out to begin with in a really demanding title, it's inevitable that it'll have some sort of performance impact. For lighter load scenarios where you already had a bunch of overhead it shouldn't change anything. Hopefully they'll also be able to optimise it a bit during the beta period to have as minimal an impact as possible.

Keep in mind the new app and GFE are only active during games when the overlay is enabled. People should not be leaving the overlay toggle enabled when not actively using it anyway. I only load up the toggle before playing a game if I know I'll be recording footage in that game, otherwise don't even bother and it's not active in the BG otherwise. For screenshots RTSS does all that as well as quick recordings using driver level encoding so for short videos RTSS covers that area, although in some games it does drop fps whilst recording due to the encoder it uses but it's not much. Otherwise just playing and viewing overlay stats in RTSS there is no performance loss even if a few fps.

RTSS is on all the time, it has zero impact on anything

Ive never seen shader stutter in any RE game nor read about it so this is news to me lol, could be a localised issue?
Are you sure it's shader stutter and not traversal stutter? If it was stuttering the first pass in that area but not the 2nd, then it's shader, if it stutters every time you pass the same area then it's traversal (aka what Dead Space remake does).

Studio driver too 
Soldato
Has it fixed official RTX HDR not working with multiple monitors yet?
Man of Honour
Hmm with this driver it looks like the browser scrolling smoothness bug has come back, will drop back to previous driver and confirm if scrolling smoothness is fixed again as this was one of the fixes for that driver at launch.
