Bugged for me. Driver would not install. Could not delete. Every time right or left clicked froze system for a few seconds. Lucky for me I mirror image weekly. M2 3.4 comes in handy at times like this.

Really wanted to see if Freesync would work on my 34" Ultrawide 2k LG 144hz freesync monitor with my MSI quicksilver 1070. Bummer oh well.

I am seeing performance improvements for 2080Ti accross multiple benchmarks, using exactly the same OC scanner overclocking settings and fan curve.

had a veryy nice experience with this so far, buttery smooth.

currently running a 1070 with an mg279q, used CRU to alter the freesync range between 60-144hz and all has been fine since. I noticed a small blip in PUBG where the screen will flicker to black ever so quickly but it is not distracting enough for me to not be able to play the game, unsure if it is a driver or game issue at this point
