Why jewvidia use two websites?:

http://www.geforce.com/drivers
>>51422935
Second one is for retarded gaymers.
>>51422957
oh...
Now there is a VR Ready tab in the My Rig of GFE.
>>51422890
Did nothing for my performance in Ass Creed. Another pointless driver.
>>51424072

>>51424128
What's wrong with GFE?
>>51424163
>substituting your manual capability of setting up graphics in games with a program that does the same job, except crappier, and takes up shit tons of RAM
Are you retarded?
>>51422890
Does this update shut down the fans on GPUs like many Jewvidia driver updates tend to do, or are we safe?
>>51424209
>and takes up shit tons of RAM
20MB is too much RAM for your system to spare?
And I don't use it to choose graphics options, I use it to automatically download drivers.
>>51424209
On my EVGA FTW Cards, the fans on them are off until it reaches a certain temperature.
>>51424585
>>51424209
same, EVGA SSC 9970, pretty sure several GPU's are doing this feature nowadays.
>>51424209
>shut down fans
Just create a custom fan profile like you should have already you dweeb.
>>51424315
Well, if you don't have GFE opened, which should only be opened to update the drivers anyway, the nvidia drivers use a little amount of RAM.
>>51425133
On the other hand, when you open GFE...
>pic related
This is a non issue anyway. Just close the window and that's it.
>>51425158
OH MY GOT
NOT MY TWO HUNDRED AND SIX MEGABYTES
When did process bloat become acceptable?
Chrome?
Windows?
Intel?
>>51425133

Disgusting.

Why turn fans off your gpu ever?
Can't hear my windforce gtx 670 until 45% fan speed.
Can't hear my hd 5870 until 55% fan speed.
Can't hear my friends gtx 960 strix until 60% fan speed.
Just let it idle with a 10-20% fan speed and under load let it go as high as it can while remaining silent.
>>51425359
You cant hear it because your rig is garbage
>>51425419
If you enjoy a 40°c idle gpu, then by all means, don't let me stop you.
But I'll set my fan speed to 10% and watch the idle temp drop to low thirties.
>>51424163
nothing, at least in comparison to what AMD does. raptr is actual malware.
>>51426009
Why?
The extra heat won't shorten your card's life. In fact having the fan on 100% of the time will.

>The extra heat won't shorten your card's life. In fact having the fan on 100% of the time will.
I've never had an issue with gpu fans.
I'm still using my hd5870 which will sometimes get to 80% fan speed and it's never off during idle.
My gtx 670 fans work just fine too, even though it's been only 2 years.
But when my hd 5870 gets to 75°c and above I start getting artifacts.
Idle fans is a stupid concept. Who cares if the fans will now last longer than 10 years. I can't hear it until a certain point at which it's probably overkill for most modern GPUs.
Why would a 10% idle speed be bad?
>>51426385
Why is it good?
Fans are more likely to die from overuse than processors.
>>51426437
Because the card will fucking run cooler.
Why let it run hotter than it needs to?
>>51426537
Who cares if it runs hotter?
>>51426575
I care.
And my friend cared when he saw the temp difference on his gtx 960 with 10% fan speed.
Only a fool wouldn't care.
>>51426896
You think wearing down your fan and increasing a cards idle wattage just to cool a card from lukewarm to handwarm benefits it in any way? You're delusional, mate.
>>51427142
Forgive me if I prefer my GPU idling at 30 degrees instead of 45.
Those are all non issues. I've never had a graphics card fan die on me in my life.
