When the fix so NIS stops giving you a performance penalty even at native resolution? Even with the sharpening disabled, you lose 5-10% in performance, nice one nvidia lmao.

I swear if any hotfix driver got "Detroit BH" in it i'll ask for a refund on EGS, it's been in tons of geforce drivers list of fixes for more than a year now

These drivers include a fix for YouTube dimming so this may be related to that. The background darkening outside the Chrome window while scrolling past video content in Facebook issue appears to be resolved as well. I'm back to using GPU hardware acceleration and the DX11 ANGLE setting again instead of the d3d9 setting that was needed with the last couple of drivers.
