The division is ok here, Dx12 and hbao, shadows high. But alt+tab to desktop still crashes later.. guess this shit never will get fixed.

Mind you I was too lazy to check GW features separately so it may well be that the crash is happening only with HFTS being used.

I did some testing on the devision with DX11 and i had 0 issues. I'll retest it with DX12 (despite the worse fps results), in order to test the stability only and report back!

I thought dx12 is a little faster? when I benchmarked in the past it was few 2-4fps faster. This was still in the early days, think 1.6 patch.

Any reason for someone on a GTX 1080 who plays none of these new games to come on over from 399.24? I am so happy with these drivers that I am hesitant to upgrade for seemingly no benefit to me so far considering the change logs. I might hold off until WDDM 2.5 before upgrading if there really is no reason to. So?

Has this 411.70 better perfomance than 397.64?

For my setup the results are worse with DX12 (avg 5 fps drop in comparison to DX11 using the ingame benchmark). Btw i just finished testing DX12 on the devision and the stability is OK, no issues at all with all latest patches installed. Returned to DX11 for obvious reasons! 😀 My setup is Windows 10 1803 build 17134.320 with nv411.70 + optimization.

RS5 has some issues with -Quake CHampions -Dead by Daylight both can crash randomly. Good that I kept old RS4 install, will revert now. EDIT: wow that was fast 😀, 3min maybe?

Did anyone test this with FH4 and compared it to his/her own 411.63 results? Is there any improvement or the Vega 64 is still on par with the 1080Ti?
Negligible difference according to testing by PCGamesHardware. The engine just isn't coded properly for NV h/w.

There is no need to rush the upgrade to RS5. We don't have proper driver support yet etc.. so! Btw never make your personal rig a beta testing machine. It is better to do beta testing or whatever on another machine or disk drive.:)

RS5 is not beta anymore. It will be released on October 2nd and the current latest RTM is the one going public.

Haven't tested Witcher 3 with these but my pc is freezing up similarly to 411.63 before the downclock to 2113 vs 2126 1.093v in Watch Dogs 2. Only difference now I get the blue screen, driver irql not less than equal, resulting in a mem dump file. I understand they may put more strain on the overall system. Tested memory, cpu, windows, hdd, they all check out, benchmarks run fine with same results to 411.63. Temps are the same on everything. Installed Quadro 392.00 and no crash with same settings. I like the performance improvement of these 411.70 but hesitant to increase any voltages just to use them. I might, the IMC still currently at 1.2v but for X79 I've read it's not safe at 1.25v. Will try them again tomorrow at any rate, game with 392.00 a bit, maybe try it with older physx to see if any difference.

I wish that meant anything. Other nvidia tech have been busted by drivers and only client updates have resolved it

That may be the case but it also may be the case of drivers being bugged. Considering the sheer amount of rather stupid bugs Turing release driver had I tend to think that it's a driver issue.

Smells like MS don't care about PC version performance - which is hardly surprising considering that they obviously don't care about PC gaming in the slightest.

How does it smell like that when in the same post you blame the driver or just before that, the engine? Could be you just....don't know.
Do make an effort and learn to read. Please?

Just got another crash while in game so def my system. Going to try and resolve it with 392 installed before installing these again...bollocks!!

I'm having severe problems with this driver install. After install I had an error message "install error". I did DDU again. Tried older drivers... nothing works. I tried restore point which had also an error. Could not complete system restore. All drivers new and old now give an error saying incompatible driver. All this after numerous reinstalls with DDU and tried different driver versions. Next step is to reinstall whole windows. But some dude had yesterday similar problem as mine. He did Windows 10 clean install and tried to install driver for 1080TI. Stll same error. I have GTX 1080. Something is quite not right... edit. there were different error messages. 1. install error 2. could not complete install 3. incompatibible driver. edit2. ok I managed somehow install latest driver without error, but control panel doesnt work at all. Then I tried reinstall again and error message came back. Incompatible driver. Lol.. wth I had 0 problems when 411.63 came...

Anyone else having screen flashing with these drivers ever now and then ? I thought maybe it was my monitor but determined it was not.
