All you GeForce owners out there that have plans to play Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain and Mad Max should download the new NVIDIA GeForce 355.82 WHQL drivers.

The latest GeForce Game Ready driver, release 355.82 WHQL, ensures you'll have the best possible gaming experience for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain and Mad Max.
 
I agree.
Although I had to revert back to 353.38 from 355.60 because my overclock had to be reduced by 40MHz to remain stable.
(edit: soz was 20MHz, forgot I was trying too hard before I installed it)
Hopefully this driver is more stable, I will wait and see :)
 
They still haven't fixed it to where I can run my Titan X for graphics, and my GTX 580 for Physx. I was enjoying a FPS bump before Windows X.

Maybe your overclock can't handle how the new driver stresses your card, and the driver is fine? You already admitted that lowering your overclock stabilizes your card ...
 
Yep, but thats a fairly obvious statement.
Previous drivers did exactly the same.
Later drivers allowed the overclock to be stable again.

This has been happening since I got my card, some drivers are less stable with a high overclock.
If I didnt need the high overclock I would just downclock, but Witcher 3 and Project Cars need every last bit of performance at times.
So I'm using drivers that let me get the max.

I'm not worried just cautious.
 
I dunno what you should do, are you more interested in how the game runs, or the number next to the MHz label?

You linked the Windows Vista/7/8 version.

I know what to do, I said in my first post.

To be clear, I'm wary of changing drivers after my experience with my last card.
This wasnt NVidias fault, it was an AMD card.
Things would break when trying a new driver and sometimes took me hours to revert the system back to a usable state that I ended up not daring to try new drivers.
I am so glad to be back with NVidia but old habits die hard.
 
while amd is busy trashing nvidia reputation with their new toy (ashes of singularity) instead of making drivers, nvidia keeps delivering where it matters..
 
I'm going to stick with 353.62...doesn't sound like these are anything major besides adding official support for those 2 games...those games don't have any Nvidia GameWorks features either so the new drivers probably won't increase performance in any meaningful way
 
Damn, I just installed the "latest" 60 and I have graphical glitches in DA II where characters only have heads and no bodies and some buildings look like a disco.

Did not have this issue with the previous, I think 52 or something.

Suppose I can try the 82 update and see if it helps, if not then roll back.
 
Anyone else have issues installing drivers now? Ever since 355.60 I can't just run the installer and update the driver. It always fails trying to install the driver. I have to uninstall the current driver, then reboot, then install new one, and then reboot again, for it to work. Though normally I always rebooted anyway after installing the driver, it's just an extra reboot to install it now so I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same issue. It's just a bit of a pain, because my color calibration software ends up thinking the calibration it did is no longer valid so I have redo the calibration if I uninstall the driver first and reboot before installing the new driver.

If you are running Windows 10 (any version) or Server 2016 (again, any version), stick with 355.60. Further, if you are running Insider build 10532 (latest version) there is a hotfix update for this driver (same version number) that you will be prompted to install via GeForce Experience. (Like the previous Windows 10 drivers, it covers all nVidia GPUs back to and including Fermi.)
 
Nope still on Win 7, sorry forgot to mention that. Well it's not a really big deal, it just adds some extra time for the extra reboot and pulling out the calibration device then calibrating of the monitor which takes a few minutes.

I have two machines running windows 10 and TitanXs. The installer seems to be able to decide (and usually does) to uninstall the old drivers and reboot the machine and continue the installation.I recall this happening in windows 8.1 too, but it didn't seem nearly as frequent.

AMD released drivers yesterday too
 
Gonna stick with 355.80..not sure if they truly fixed the SLI memory leaks with this particular release but it makes it good to pretend that it did.
 
I've just installed these, and now when I open Google Chrome my cards run at full 3D clocks (used to stay at 2D clocks) and GTA V crashes - a lot. Back to 353.62...
