**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

It's the exact same driver as game ready, just undergoes more testing in production applications to fix any bugs or support more of such apps
 
If you leave these settings alone, then check games like RDR2, Cyberpunk, etc... you can see that it's switched on per game profile based on nvidia's testing
 
Ah, that makes sense about the individual profiles, I checked and you are correct. I changed to enabled but guess it probably will just change as required anyway.
 
Bit of a longshot question, but has anyone ever known a certain set of NVidia drivers to cause issues with mouse lag and stutter?

Since updating to the latest drivers (which seem really good for my 5080 and have solved a few issues I was having) I keep getting random bouts of extreme mouse stutter and lag - on the desktop.

Never had this before, ever, in 25 years of PC use. Can't see any reason for it, CPU usage and everything at minimal normal levels. Only thing that has really changed on my system in the last week or so, is installing the new Nvidia drivers. I'm stumped.....
 
You need to enable it globally in the bios. But then Nvidia will choose to use rebar on a per game bases.
Thanks, it did take me a bit a while ago to work out why it would not enable, not the video change above, that I had to disable the CSM setting in the bios, I don't recall enabling that so possibly somehow reset it back on, but now working

Have you removed the drivers with DDU and reinstalled ? i.e a clean install

Actually after a bit more digging, and much as I would like to blame Nvidia drivers as they have been so shocking, I'm now pretty sure it's something to do with my keyboard / mouse and Logitech Ghub. I use fancy lightspeed wireless keyboard and mouse and the keyboard was disconnecting randomly - I think something has gone **** up with drivers/ windows and Logitech wise....

I'm currently on 560.94 after a new Win11 install, what's the next one up from that for rock solid stability (if there is such a thing with drivers) ?

Yep, I have this and it lags badly when I open up Steam (for example). I've had it a long time, certainly pre-50 series.

It is Nvidia because it didn't do it with a Radeon card in the same system.
 
Under the "Advanced display" settings for your monitor in the Windows Settings app, look where you would adjust refresh rate and see if "Dynamic refresh rate" is switched on. I had this issue with my 3080 until I switched this off, and it has no affect on VRR for gaming.
