If you don't mind my asking, why would you use 12 bit AND limited?

Probably because he's using a 4K HDR 12-bit display TV as a monitor.

I'm using a Sony X800D 4K HDR 10-Bit display, and when I want to play a game in HDR & in 10-Bit, or watch 10-Bit content for example, I switch from 8Bit RGB 4:4:4 (which is what I mostly use and have been using with this driver) to 10Bit 4:2:0 (which I still haven't tested since I upgraded to the creators update).

I have Philips 7007 40" 3D TV 1080p , I use it mainly to play almost every game in 3D . it doesn't support 0-255 so I need to use Limited or else the black is crushed. I'm still waiting for the perfect OLED TV with everything I want . 100+Hz +HDR+QuantumDotColor+ 4K+ 3D + FullRange support + Low Latency Lag Input + 21:9 + Prefered VA or MVA Panel it seems better than IPS ,
Many of the TVs don't have 3D.

Windows 10 Creators Update has many many bugs, a lot of Games are affected and some other programs + more stuff.

Try to clean install the whole OS.

Last night my WD 1TB HDD out of the blue is dead!

Thats not going to happen, 3D is dead (also, the terms VA or IPS refer to traditional LCD displays, not to OLEDs).

Does this driver fix the issue of Win 10 Creators not identifying/supporting the custom refresh rates set in the Nvidia control panel.

This issue has made me go back to Win 10 Anniversary since I run my games at custom refresh rates.

Anyone else is getting these weird antialiasing artifacts on fonts in Firefox 53?

Happens when there's a GIF under it, in 1607 or 1703 and I think that it's been like this on the last R378 driver too so maybe it's a FF bug.

Look the update date

They fixed the text of the article, it was saying 378.81 previously or something like this.

I solved the issue of icc profiles which revert back to default when entering/exiting a game by using this soft :

"I have problem with fullscreen playback of videos in what it seems Windows 10 built-in video player and Netflix app. The video is choppy like it's playing in 5fps"

I have this exact same problem.

I went back to 378.92...... and no longer have the above issues.

Your not alone on that issue.
happens with some games of on my windows 10 latest insider build 1703

even starting a game up can freeze on the start part then if i alt+enter then press on the game again it will load lol

IKR, but too troublesome to apply for all the games.

There's a comment from a Microsoft employee here, I recommend people start telling them the issues they're experiencing so they get fixed:

You can disable this feature globally in the System Settings -> Gaming -> Game bar -> Uncheck "Show Game bar when I play full screen games Microsoft has verified"

Win Logo boot problem still present......the OS is up&running - in fact you can shutdown the system correctly by pressing the poweron/off button - but you can't see NOTHING but the win logo screen.
And yes, the mouse arrow.

@ManuelG: Please, dev team, fix it!

Windows Creators Update + GeForce 750 Ti
