it doesn't matter anyway. Latest decent stable drivers, mostly free of TDR, are 285.79. 29x.xx are utter crap for most of the people since they introduce various problems that didn't exist before. You can find a bunch of topic on, for instance, guru3d forums. |

wow, that's interesting since I got 290.53 here working flawlessly. Guru3D, that pos site still exists? Wow. I used to go there long time ago, was pathetic filled with whiners and biased/egotistical moderators. This site has the same thing but it's always more funny here. See like I got a good laugh from your post. |

lol Tom, I linked a mile long topic on nvidia forums. Problem is not nVidia but m$ AND nVidia. Problem is real, you either suffer from it hard or not at all. Depends on the drivers and god knows what. I was just testing 570 SLI and had no problems, gave them to a buddy to test them - bam! every 30 minutes or so driver crashes but it does so while you are doing desktop stuff, not in games, which is weird. Anyway, you can look into it or don't. Closing your eyes just because you don't have problem doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It obviously does since there is an official statement from nvidia staff, and not just one. You can google those.
I am just testing this driver now and so far so good. Even flash (YT) is working as it should when I change resolutions etc. Thing is, there is no performance improvement over the 285.79 in any game I tested, so I guess these are usefull if you were suckered into buying nVidia 3D kit (instead of any other 3D kit/solution) |
