Last few Nvidia drivers have had a few weird anomalies.
I've twice now, had to re-install GeForce Experience.
In both cases, it simply stopped working and would simply report 'something went wrong'.
As to the drivers themselves, 441.66 caused a very slight micro-stutter in Assetto Corsa Competizioni.
It was corrected with the installation of 441.87.
That driver was exceptionally smooth.
I made the mistake of accidentally clicking on the update driver tab when 442.19 was released.
That driver reintroduced quite a bit of micro-stutter...even more than the 441.66.
In the end, I just removed it with DDU and re-installed 441.87.
The smoothness returned.
Bear in mind all drivers were using the exact settings and nothing else had been changed.
It was clearly a driver issue in my case.

I do not remember what version was 10-9 years ago i remember reading the 560 also had problems we are talking about ancient history .... What really stuck with me is when ever a browser causes problems is normally nvidia gpu with ff , although that said it might be selective memory from my part.is not like i did some extensive research 😛

Firefox aside, dunno why it became so on topic in the first place, did anyone actually try them compared to 442.01?

One last note regarding Firefox:
I have to disable Direct2D for years to prevent occasionally smeared fonts with Nvidia GPUs if Webrender is disabled. Had a Polaris GPU for over a year, never was an issue with it. Though it's not a biggie to disable it.
Apart from that, recent drivers are pretty flawless for me.

never had an issue with fonts in firefox, however windows 10 does something differently that causes AF settings to affect chromium based apps, I suppose Firefox might also occasionally be affected if they have made their layer rendering more like chromes.

All right, then. I'll give the driver a go.
Thanks for replies, aufkrawall2 & Astynax.

@RedruM-X well back then i just changed browser , it was the easier way !
aufkrawall2
My issue is not related to forcing AF. There is an issue with Webrender though that is. My issue probably is rather specific with advanced layers Direct2D, 1440p, website zoom, lots of auto scrolling and random occurrance.

ye been writing this for a long time..
make [feedback] in the thread title or something so its more clear too, oh and i use vivaldi 😀, can be a bit crap with blue screens (ram manage i guess) but if you are lucky with a version that is more stable just stick to it, the customization is worth it
Witcher29
These drivers feels a bit more blurry to me on IQ compared to 441.87
Less crispy [sharp] textures i dont know its just me but i see it for sure.
Cyberdyne
Definitely just you, take some screenshots. Should be super easy since you see it for sure.
Astyanax
placebo
Witcher29
I still think they are less gritty sharper in iq in games then previous versions.
dexterav
and still placebo 😀

So i played with this driver a bit and 442.01 is still better by minimum fps e.g. destiny2 by lots of action going on on screen (especially Moon nightmare public events).
Will return to 442.01.

Are some people really coming back to older drivers just because they ( think 😛 ) had 2-3 fps more in some games (error margin for the most part tho) and are losing nice fixes and tweaks from latest drivers by doing so?
Astyanax
its especially silly given a public event means there are highly variable amounts of player characters about which alters cpu and gpu performance from normalized gameplay.
-Tj-
Are you two replying to me?
Its more then 3 fps, up to 5-7fps and 50fps vs 56fps is a difference, I don't post bs, never really did, and since others like to post I try to stay out of it, it's pointless to argue, I rather do something more productive. Like now Im almost forced to reply and defend my claims. 😉
And no there isn't any variations, each public event is max 6players at the time.
Sora you can keep those placebos, ty.
Cyberdyne
It wasn't a blanket statement, it was a reply to a specific person. I didn't say the word "ALWAYS", hell I didn't even say the word placebo lol.
He sees better textures with a certain driver. Something you can easily prove. Just like cleartype settings being changed is something you proved.
You need to stop taking everything so personally, quite looking for a reason to be outraged all the time. I don't remember you always being so toxic.
Cyberdyne
Yes, i believe he's wrong, as do the other replies after his post. That's it.
I have a hard time believing anyone would look at this situation and think I'm the toxic and immature one.
But maybe you're right. So be it, I'm ready for the consequences. 😉
