Its just an RTX 4070 driver support, no fix, no performances improvement, no stability, money first and finger for us 😀 😎

when i saw the headline i got really excited there would be RTX performance improvements for Hogwarts Legacy - I'm typing now to express my sadness that it doesn't seem so 🙁

GeForce GRD 531.61 Feedback Thread (Released 4/13/23) https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/game-ready-drivers/13/516798/geforce-grd-53161-feedback-thread-released-41323/ Fixed Issues in this Release: [Assassin’s Creed Origins] Game may have stability issues when using 531.18.

Increase in DPC latency observed in Latencymon [3952556] Applying GeForce Experience Freestyle filters cause games to crash [4008945] Should've just held back until those were fixed....

So, is this for everyone or only 4070 users?

RLY? Latest hotfix + RTX 4070 support? https://media.tenor.com/oE7O8I0TvEwAAAAC/thats-all-folks.gif

Also I like how they never mentioned Destiny2 flickering, only crashing with older 515, and 517.48 fixed it. 517.48 was also my go to driver with 980ti until I switched to 3080ti in december., while for example old 512.94 fixes any kind of flickering that was changed in driver process. edit: @ManuelG are those smoke textures, reflections issues with game assets? but older 512 driver is fine so I really don't know anymore.. for example a friend with Amd rx480 8g doesn't have water flicker on Neptune in Hall of heroes..

Please keep this thread about driver feedback, further personal attacks will end up in a timeout for a week!

Looks like my hunch about shader compile issue with UE wasn't that far off.

Getting crashes in Cyberpunk 2077 with new full RT with DLSS 3 FG and DLSS quality using 4K as a base, GPU-Z reports VRAM usage around 22GB lol Some crashes are not even logged in Windows journal, others mentions ''\Device\Video3 Error occurred on GPUID: 100''

pagefile on and 1:1 with memory or higher?

Pagefile on yes, but its on 16GB I believe, my system RAM is 32GB, should I set pagefile to 32GB too?

Event Viewer logs nvlddmkm error at the end of the OCCT video ram test when memory is full [4049182] This is the main reason for your "\Device\Video3 Error occurred on GPUID: xxxx'" crashes. We all must wait for fix from Nvidia.

I did a lot of back and forth with virtual memory, looking high and low online and I eventually came to the conclusion that, with 32gb of RAM, the pagefile is best left to be managed by Windows.

Leave it by default 😎

If I let Windows manage it, its sets it at around 5GB and apps/games often crash, not sure why it won't properly increase it when needed, maybe its too slow. I had it at 16GB and its stable for months now. Finished Resident Evil 4 Remake in 4K with ultra settings + RT and not a single crash, Cyberpunk 2077 crashes when opening menus/inventory :/

Not saying that this is what's causing the crashes, but your specs say you're on Windows 10? I found that Windows 11 is better at handling memory than Windows 10 in my opinion, and therefore makes a better gaming OS, provided you turn off all the virtualization security measures and disable core isolation.
