This is for hdmi only?

HDMI connections were the only ones with the issue, DVI shouldn't have a problem.

[ThirdEye]

Ah ok. Cause I installed the drivers this morning before leaving and didn't see any new options under desktop color settings.

[Megaman]

There won't be options. It should just be using the full spectrum now.

[ThirdEye]

Hey, how come is it that when you create new resoltions under dsr they stick with the native refresh rate instead of the custom one? Any way around that?

Not that I know, I wish I could use my 75hz OC on the monitor but it removes all custom resolutions for me if I use DSR.

If you use HDMI there is an option for Limited or Full RGB now.

Just tried adding a custom res with cru instead and it works

1. disable dsr
2. remove any custom resolutions made through nvcp
3. run pixel patcher, reboot
4. add the res you want in cru (detailed list), move it to the top of the detailed list, reboot
5. enable dsr

[|MaguS|]

I can't get CRU to work at all.

EDIT: NM, I can't OC my monitor at all now. Can't even use 1080p @ 75hz that I used since I had this monitor.

[ThirdEye]

Weeird, CRU never gave me problems.

Why? Are things ok at home kac? You wanna tell me all about it over a cup of tea?

[Megaman]

Tea isn't Halal over there. Maybe over some goat milk.

[ThirdEye]

Some cheese made from breast milk?

[Rummy]

My GTX 970 gets here Monday. What drivers are you guys using, also I am using HDMI to my Dell monitor, should I be using DVI instead? Thanks.

[|MaguS|]

Newest drivers, set Full RGB in CP.

[Rummy]

Thank you, locked and loaded.

Everyone on holidays??

Version 347.09 is now WHQL

[Napoleonic]

Difference with the beta version?

[noko]

On my 860M laptop in the control panel I have only 3Dsettting tasks. No Display or Video settings.

Also in 3dSettings I have no selection for DSR. I will reload to see if this clears up.

[noko]

DSR is not available yet for the mobile version of Maxwell I found out. Now why the other stuff is not in the control panel I do not know why unless being an Intel/Nvidia display system maybe a reason.

New driver.

http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/81390/en-us

GeForce Game Ready Driver
The new GeForce Game Ready driver, release 347.25 WHQL, is aligned with today’s launch of the new GeForce GTX 960. This new GPU brings the features, power, and efficiency of the second-generation Maxwell architecture to a more mainstream gaming audience. One of the most popular features of the Maxwell architecture is Multi-Frame Sampled Anti-Aliasing (MFAA) support. With this latest release, MFAA support is extended to nearly every DX10 and DX11 title. In addition, this Game Ready WHQL driver ensures you'll have the best possible gaming experience for the latest new blockbuster titles including Dying Light.

Expanded Multi-Frame Sampled Anti-Aliasing (MFAA) support for DX10/DX11 games

• No support for MFAA with SLI enabled
• Still no DSR for G-Sync and SLI users.
• Dragon Age is still broken with SLI enabled, must suck for 4K users.

GeForce Game Ready Driver for Evolve

Just in time for the highly anticipated title Evolve, this new GeForce Game Ready driver ensures you'll have the best possible gaming experience With support for GeForce SLI technology and one-click game setting optimizations within GeForce Experience, you'll have the best possible performance and image quality during gameplay. In addition, we are delivering performance improvements across GeForce GPUs that will immediately benefit a wide variety of titles at various resolutions.

Naturally all the issues in my previous post remain unfixed, and the nvidia reps and their forums keeps on ignoring posters asking for any kind of updates on the matter.

[MNB4800]

Damn, any word on the voltage changes at less than full load that is causing crashes to people? I hate having KBOOST active all the time.

Only crashes I get are related to DSR, If I run a DSR resolution the game has a possibility of crashing. At native 1080p its rock solid.

[Mangler]

He was talking about an issue that is only relevant to sli users, card #2 runs at a lower voltage than the primary card, which can lead to stability issues when overclocking them.

NVM, seems like it can also cause troubles for some of the factory OC:ed cards.

Jesus, Did Nvidia just give up on SLi? All these issues just revolving around SLi make me glad I jumped ship.

Hell I have been thinking about going AMD if the 300 Series or whatever its going to be called is good.

Yes that is exactly the thing. There are multiple threads around the net about this. Two known fixes by the community via either custom bios changes or using KBOOST constantly so far. Having an official fix, though, is the best thing and we have yet to get anything.

• No support for MFAA with SLI enabled
• Still no DSR for G-Sync and SLI users.
• Dragon Age is still broken with SLI enabled, must suck for 4K users.

plus a little bit of sli texture flickering here and there with this .52 and last .25 in dying light, vsync was on

edit: never mind must be a game bug

does it 980 sli and single 980 to and single 290x

[Apocalypsee]

I got DSR setting on my GTX 560 SLi. Still a little bit of shadow flickering now and then on Far Cry 4

[Megaman]

For what it's worth.

Nvidia has released the 347.71 Beta Hotfix graphics driver. This driver is for GeForce 400 and higher graphics cards under Windows Vista, 7 and 8. It is a hotfix for resolving an issue with being unable to apply optimal settings in GeForce Experience with MFAA support.

[Litennörd]

Nvidia released an updated driver for its DX10 cards last week. And also one for the Geforce 6 and 7 series!

The Geforce 6 series is only one month from turning 11 years old.

[Mangler]

I don't believe that, I read on this very forum that nvidia does not support their older hardware.

[MNB4800]

Damn, I think I made my upgrade at a really bad time. What is it with new nVidia! They were never this bad since the Vacuum/Cooker card they released years back. I am checking for new drivers every day to fix a lot of issues with games and SLI.

SLI has issues all of its own. What issues are you having, in what games? If you're running SLI, you might want to disable a card to see if those issues remain. The support for SLI has been rather lacking lately, but still better than that of Crossfire at least. Both camps need to step up their mGPU support.

So today I guess Winblows Update forced a driver update on my even though I have it set to never download drivers from Winblows Update.

347.90 is the new driver that installed on to my system and since Nvidia released the 347.88 along with the Titan-X launch I need to completely uninstall Avast since it won't allow me to enable SLI with it running which I can not easily disable it....

WTF? How can Windows Update force a driver update when its specifically set to not install drivers from Windows Update....
