Just grabbed these because Win10 updated itself and decided that I would rather auto update drivers now after I told it hell naw for months. Started my PC and started getting a bunch of screen flashes and I knew what happened..I knew right then and there this pos was making its own decisions. So I just reinstalled all my old saved drivers and changed the setting back..why tf do they let it revert back after Win10 updates? its torturous..

On my emulation machine I have a GTX 770 and noticed 411.63 drivers would cause a green screen. Couldnt even access safe mode without console commands (ugh WIN10). Pain in the ass and dont feel like attempting again with these unless its fixed. Anyone know if its fixed?

They've had a few crappy drivers and 411.70 was the fix for that, so likely yes.

I wonder how 416.34 compares, they've done a great job dropping the frame rate on a 1060 6gb - I might revert to 399.24 on my 1080 ti.

I was talking about the "optimizations" only. Do they still do that for older generation cards, or those drivers are pointless?
That was my q.
