**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

I thought the broken GPU boost after overclocking was annoying but the constant blackscreens necessitating safe mode, DDU and trying the next new driver that allegedly fixes the problem is really winding me up. For all the grief AMD used to get I never had problems like this.
Glad I read this, thought I was going crazy last night. Decent boost with undercoat, no boost with overclock now...
 
I've gone back to ~560.xx with my 4080M, seems to be working a bit better, so think I'll stick with these unless something happens/they resolve all these issues.

For all the stick AMD get about drivers, Nvidia seem to have really rushed or broken something somewhere with these recent drivers.

I had this with a BSOD on the late January drivers when playing FFXVI which is why I updated to the latest . Might just go back to the pre 50 series drivers if it happens again.

Made me run ram tests to make sure they weren't going funky.
 
Same here though is only happens with Hogwarts Legacy with the nVidia App overlay enabled, HDR and 4K resolution or higher, any other combination of settings avoids it.

EDIT: A bit alarming at first because I thought it might be a symptom my 14700K might be degrading :s

What we're the last good ones? Presumably ones before 5000 series launched right? Is it possible to use DLSS4 with the old ones via DLSS swapper??
 
If I wasn't running a 50 series card I'd be using the last driver which was released before the 50 series releases.
DLSS 4 worked fine with DLSS Swapper and Profile Inspector

Since the 50 series release the drivers have been really bad
 
Yet more glaring problems with latest drivers and the 50 series. Not seen anyone else mention this on here but I found a thread on reddit linked below describing the issue exactly

TL;DR: Latest framegen DLLs (for DLSS4 MFG) do not work properly with Gsync and Vsync enabled. Completely borked.



Confirmed the issue myself in Cyberpunk and Indiana Jones.
Have Nvidia smoked a bad batch of crack recently or something? This is getting ridiculous now.
It just shows how much they care about gaming these days. :/ A sign of things to come with 6k series I reckon.
 
Been having an odd issue with the latest drivers on Arma Reforger (5070Ti). When leaving a match, the game hangs with the reforger logo on screen. Doesn't happen with the previous drivers.
 
Whisper it quietly but after I think 4 different drivers the current hotfix drivers seem to be working for me at the moment. No black screens, voltage control is working and the clock speeds aren't resetting.
