tone321 Posted September 24, 2022 Report Share Posted September 24, 2022 (edited) Anyone tested these?, how are they holding up vs 525.26? Edited September 24, 2022 by tone321 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OpenCL context creation still fails as seen with R525 Looks like nobody at NVIDIA cares about that. EDIT: 3DMark fails All Geeks3D demos/benchmarks crash GravityMark crashes Riftbreaker benchmark stalls with black screen Boundary Benchmark crashes Indigobench fails Resident Evil 6 benchmark fails Bright Memory benchmark fails GFXBench crashes Final Fantasy XV benchmark stalls Basemark crashes Octanebench OK Maverick benchmark OK Tested under Windows Nickel. Forced all apps to use NVIDIA GPU. Maybe this driver is hard coded for Windows Copper, maybe it does not like my driver mod, maybe it does not like my laptop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tone321 Posted September 25, 2022 Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 yea same i was able to install it but my 3dmark didnt run. So, i went bk to 525.26 right after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanG3D Posted September 25, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 Meanwhile i dusted my old Maxwell laptop with Windows 10. That combo seems to work better. But because of the low speed i will not test so much on it. Â Probably the driver is confused by the AMD iGPU in my new rig? Misc. apps already didn't like that, so a regression in a driver wont surprise me. Well, i can live without this driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJKeevil Posted September 25, 2022 Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 (edited) I get the same 100% gpu load issue that I experienced with the 525 branch with this driver, otherwise working ok.

Manciuszz Posted October 8, 2022 Report Share Posted October 8, 2022 (edited) Using this on my laptop with RTX 2080 SUPER. Had to modify the .inf files to add hardware support. The 100% GPU load is just Task Manager reporting bad values. MSI Afterburner is reporting correct data. So far I experienced no issues with it and it performs better (for me) than the official 517.48 driver Edited October 8, 2022 by Manciuszz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it really looks like only Optimus with AMD is screwed, while Optimus with Intel works. Whatsoever, Tuesday i'll try the RTX 4090 launch driver (unless they only WHQL'ed r522.06) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJKeevil Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 FYI on the GPU load in task manager issue, it seems to be cause by using a combination of dual screens and Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling (HAGS). Disabling HAGS fixes the issue for me. Whether or not the load really exists or is just what task manager shows is still being discussed, on another thread some people say they also see the load in GPUZ.

StefanG3D Posted October 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 I noticed that recent INF's incl. in this driver end with: amd_dpfc.SVCDESC = "AMD_DPFC Service" So i believe this driver does not integrate the AMD Dynamic Power and Frequency Controller Service Driver correctly. Meanwhile confused developers are babbling about CUDA 12.0 instead of 11.8 https://github.com/NVIDIA/cuda-samples/commit/fd127a18a3e58e7bb9dab49d1c88e512e12c2349 <Import Project="$(CUDAPropsPath)\CUDA 12.0.targets" /> <Import Project="$(CUDAPropsPath)\CUDA 12.0.targets" /> Download and install the [CUDA Toolkit 12.0](https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads) for your corresponding platform.

Compared with the laptop driver, there are many fewer folders, but the two versions I can find on the Internet are the same.

tormento Posted October 14, 2022 Report Share Posted October 14, 2022 Personally, I can't get NVCleanstall working with latest drivers. It tells that everything worked fine but when I launch the install, it fails to and I have to go with usual driver package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. It probably won't work if you just extract and try to install. If you actually tried reading the guys post, you would have realized a way how to add it manually. Quote You can add your own GPU to be supported on this driver by launching Launch.bat file and you will have the ability to add your GPU to this driver. The guy that packed everything together put all the tools inside to achieve what you want. The problem is that he didn't make it easy, since the scripts he used are literally copy/pasted from another repack. The scripts care about the extracted driver directory structure and his pack doesn't give a s*** about it. You will either have to edit the scripts themselves (afaik you only need to change Utility_INF.ahk as it is the one that allows you to add hardware support) or put them one-level up so they can see 'Display.Driver'. 7 hours ago, tormento said: Personally, I can't get NVCleanstall working with latest drivers.

Thanks for your guidance, now NVCleanstall is working normally, but the driver installation still fails, even if it is updated from the device manager, it will still prompt that the system cannot find the specified file. Compared with the laptop version driver, There are a lot of files missing in the 'Display.Driver'. I tried to fill in the missing files with the laptop driver, but NVCleanstall reported an error.
