NVIDIA GeForce Forceware 196.21 WHQL Drivers Released

[Lamb]

I had to install them twice but now I have no issues with Rivetuner/Precision >> On the first install my shaders wouldn't be detected and I couldn't overclock anything nor change the fan speeds, after the 2nd install everything was fine! Be sure to uninstall everything and wipe it all with Driver Sweeper

The only victims were a bigadv approaching the 80% and my ramdisk containing my GPU's F@H folders (at least I had finished my units before updating!)

Yep; try out the drivers and let us know if your cards survive!

Hey, that's me you're talking about. I'm unsure if it was a problem with some bad 353 WU's, but it was working fine on a 548 last I checked. We'll see when I get home.

this driver is garbage.

You can try the newest Afterburner beta fixed until a new driver came out. :)

Sticking to 186.18 ! Issues with OC'ing / Precision turns me off !

Not only does Precision not work but my PPD dropped 50% after I rebooted. Back to the old ones.

Sticking to 195.62's!

196's destroyed my cards performances with either F@H and 3Dmark Vantage.
