Wot drivers are the best ?

For me... tha latest driver, its far from perfect but far better than the one i was using 2 months ago with a gainward 5090. The latest hotfix was a backward step so currently using 576.02.

 

[scubes]

What games does this happen on all games are specific ones ?

 

[OldBoy75]

No black screens for me in any situation with 576.02 but i am only using a single 120hz screen.

The latest hotfix has the least issues for me. I'm still getting issues with monitors going to sleep and not waking up, but other than that it's the best of a bad bunch.

I'd try the latest official one and see how you get on. Saying that, the latest official has the temp monitoring problem, which is an issue if you have a custom fan curve...

576.15 have been best of a **** bunch for my 5080 so far, but I had to install them twice! Never known such jank with any NV drivers before this recent wave. Shocking stuff

 

[scubes]

hopefully they will fix the drivers soon.

You might be one of the lucky ones who has no issues, they've not been terrible for everyone.

 

[scubes]

I thought this was all the same for everyone I see you can use 3 pci express cables 450watt instead of 575 4 cables .
