**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

As I don't play new games much these days, I'll stick to the studio drivers. Hopefully they will spare me those issues. :)
 
Going back to an earlier driver (577) has restored AB showing power useage in watts, can someone tell the stupid AI coders to put this functionality back into newer drivers.

I've not seen power in watts vanish in HWInfo

Neither have I. :)

That's why I mentioned AB (Afterburner), and to clarify, it disappears, well, shows 0.0, in the OSD.

Latest drivers work initially after a fresh boot, then doesn't.

Absolutely love the 595.76 hotfix drivers on my 4090, even coming from 591.86 or 591.74, they ran fine, no stability issues but 1% lows could be a little all over the place. Forcing frame gen on in unsupported games like The Division 2 through the Nvidia app is now running so much smoother, silky smooth. I was getting a locked 120fps before, but the 1% lows were all over the place jumping from the 40s to 100 fps so it felt a bit stuttery at times. Now the 1% lows are pretty much locked at a very consistent 100fps+ even when running through the world and tons of effects going on. I've also noticed much lower CPU utilisation with frame gen on in this game as well.

Stability is fine so far, fans and temps are great, this might the best driver they've done in a while.
