NVIDIA Working On GeForce 10 DPC Latency & Stuttering Issue

[Shintai]

Is this the sort of thing that can be fixed with software or is it an actual engineering problem?

Its pure software.

If I change my power plan to high performance like latencymon basically suggests then all the spikes go away. Of course I dont want my cpu running full speed and voltage so I wont be doing that. Plus if I was not checking with latencymon then I would never know about the spikes anyway.

Does increasing the minimum CPU speed from 5% to say 50% help?

I like the way you think.

Hasn't worked for my desktop. Min performance is set to 50%

Looks like they released a hotfix driver today.

Some report that it works, others that it doesn't. Properly cleaning out the old one, before installing the new probably won't hurt.

I'll be testing it when I get home.

So, I got my Gigabyte 1080 G1 today.

Nifty little card. Haven't really pushed it yet, but I seem to get at least 2160Mhz with it on the stock cooler without playing with voltages. Should be great when I get it in my water loop.

Anyway, it looks good through a few passes in Unigine Heaven, and i played a couple of hours of Civ 5 without any stuttering or sound problems.

I ran the LatencyMon app while running a Unigine Heaven pass though, and it does indeed confirm that there are latency problems. For whatever reason, these latency problems are not resulting in bad symptoms on my machine, like they reportedly are for some others.

I just installed the hotfix driver. DPC latency is much improved, but still not ideal.

It was suggested to me it should stay under 100. I now mostly have 400, but had one spike up to 1000.

So, greatly improved, but still worse than it should be.

Same here. An improvement, but Nvidia needs to go further to resolve this issue.

My 1080 no longer downclocks all the way at idle with these drivers...
