Yes it would seem it’ll load a super hot tune! Watch those GPU temps people.
Haven’t noticed a thing.
Can somebody make a real gaming benchmark and not that fucking 3d mark again? It means nothing.
Not really, and people also still have crashes, black screen issues etc.
More crashes, black screens, and nonfunctional temp sensors. At least Steel Nomad scores are up? Lol
They probably just optimized for the benchmark. Nothing to see here.
Nothing is fixed it seems.
I saw someone posting that the new drivers had negatively affected their overclock on their 5080 so
I’m hesitant to update. I’ve got a super stable undervolt going that’s like +500 GPU and + 1400 memory at under stock power consumption on my basic bitch Gigabyte card that I don’t want to lose.
Games that never crashed before are now crashing after this driver update. At least on my rig.
Who cares about 3dmark, only non gamers
There were reported gains in Marvel Rivals, it’s not just the benchmark unlike what everyone who didn’t click on the article is saying…
Yeah no… not on my end.
My RTX 4070 Super still has black screen issues and some games like Monster Hunter Wilds run worse then before.
What’s weird is my 9800x3d runs substantially hotter with this driver 🤔
I think the higher benchmark scores have something to do with something that NVIDIA messed up. On my 5080 I also got a 7% benchmark boost but also higher temps, higher power draw and an unstable OC at the exact same performance levels in games as before, utilizing 100% of the GPU even with NVIDIA Reflex on in places where it never broke 80% before, resulting in constant microstuttering with Frame Gen on as it can’t pace the frames properly. Everyone is sharing benchmark scores and almost no one is sharing actual in-game performance and GPU utilization differences, which is super surreal.
Good ole nvidia. Can’t fix a real issue but let’s optimize for a benchmark.
That’ll make the masses happy. Right?
I only did a quick test benchmark in shadows of the tomb raider on my 4090 before upgrading to the latest drivers. I only had a 1 frame increase.
So glad I for a 7900XTX instead of waiting for a 5080 like this entire sub said to lmfao. Almost 4 months later and still no stock.
Geekbench 6’s opencl score for my mobile 3070ti went up by 1500ish points after installing this new driver.
nVidia sucks! Sorry, wrong thread.
For some reason, yes it doesnt matter much but my furmark score has decreased by 10fps after installing this driver.
I was playing Marvel Rivals last night and crashed every other game with my 5080. Not sure if I believe this….
Stopped getting the remove device crashes on my 5070ti… So there’s that
