Windows 10 Open Issues With This Driver
 [SLI] Gears of War 4 shows lower results when SLI is enabled. [1814018]
Gears of War 4 currently does not support explicit multi-GPU configurations. However, we
have found an issue where single-GPU performance drops if SLI is enabled in the NVIDIA
Control Panel. As a result, please disable SLI prior to playing Gears of War 4 if you have
multiple GPUs. We are working on the issue and will inform the community as soon as we
have the issue resolved.

Thanks for the info. Does anyone know if an already created INF file will work with this driver and if so which one?

 

Thanks all. Long time user but first time posting.

I can't work with vulkan api with the 372.54 driver

Uninstall runtimes 1.0.26 and beyond (containing some changes screwing NVIDIA)

Then install runtime 1.0.21

Current drivers are limited to API 1.0.13 anyway

That's at least what worked for me.

You do use a compatible GPU with Kepler architecture or later as listed here: https://developer.nvidia.com/vulkan-driver ?
