NVIDIA Releases GeForce 355.80 Hotfix for Windows 10 Related Issue
NVIDIA released the GeForce 355.80 Hotfix driver to address a critical issue affecting users of SLI configurations on Windows 10. Users of SLI configurations (and dual-GPU graphics cards such as the GTX 690) report excessive virtual memory consumption on Windows 10. This driver addresses the issue, and future WHQL-signed releases will incorporate the fix. This is one of the many graphics memory management issues Windows 10 users are experiencing across GPU brands, which both NVIDIA and AMD are hopefully working to address.DOWNLOAD: GeForce 355.80 Hotfix for Windows 10 64-bit (Desktop GPUs) | Windows 10 64-bit (Notebook GPUs) | Windows 10 32-bit (Desktop GPUs) | Windows 10 32-bit (Notebook GPUs)

"Stupid AMD, needing bugfixes all the time just release a WHQL driver already without your crappy bugs"
oh wait
All that extra spyware is going to slow your system down, and cause havok with your hardware. I see it heats up cpus, gee, I wonder why.
Fortunately i've had no windows 10 driver issues on any of my systems - only teamviewer 10 waking systems from sleep and hibernate.
random crash/stuck after 5-20min... it's hurting that in w7 i have nerver had this problem...
and marvell sata driver s|_|ck like hell!
preparing all to return to w7
I used to love their cards, I had a 6950 back then, I complained about a similar problem, never ever did I see a fix for it, even after a year.
I moved over to nVidia and I am never looking back.
But the video card is what hurt the most. Cannot even have a decent 1920x1200 resolution....
As an example i've tested the 15.7 (and 15.7.1) AMD drivers on windows 10 with AMD 5770, 6870, 7970, 280x, and 290. all of them worked great except the 280x (and i RMA'd a lot of them due to the issues) - anyone who'd bought the ever popular 280x would hate AMD for buggy drivers and problems, yet those same drivers work fine on every other AMD card i've got on hand.
Back in the day Nvidia had issues with the 8800GT/S/X cards drivers crashing constantly, and i moved from them to AMD - but i'd never be daft enough to claim those drivers for those cards have any relevance to anything else BUT those cards on those drivers.
Back when I was running 5850's the drivers would occasionally cause BSOD's during the most mundane tasks. Sorry but Ill take running one card instead of two with NVIDIA than having a damn OS corruption courtesy of AMD and 10 nasty BSOD's.
I know they both have issues but NVIDIA issues are far, FAR less.
Also remember NVIDIA is a software company that dabbles in hardware.
AMD is a hardware company that dabbles in drivers.
If by some magic we could get AMD hardware and NVIDIA drivers on the same product I doubt ANYONE would be complaining.......except for maybe Qubit. He cry's about everything.
I was using 4GB of memory running a small map on TitanFall... my cards have 4GB! I was getting 10FPS with two cards... I was able to get 144+ fps the whole time before moving to Windows 10 and these new shit drivers.
I haven't played on my PC for about a month now because I literally CAN NOT! :mad:
my next card will be.. compatible with EK Supreme :laugh:
No issues with my MSI 980 Ti. Running flawlessly. All my mobo drivers ran perfectly too upon installation of Win10, which is unheard of, for me at least.
