DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE LATEST NVIDIA DRIVERS IF YOU HAVE A GTX970, THEY CAUSED MULTIPLE ISSUES, LOCKED MY SYSTEM UP MULTIPLE TIMES, AND BUGGED OUT AND SET MY OVERCLOCK TO OVER ONE FUCKING GIGAHERTZ AND ALMOST MELTED MY CARD.

SAVE YOURSELVES. PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE IN DRIVER FORM IS NOT A MEME, I REPEAT, NOT A MEME.

Always ignore AMDPOORFAGS like OP that don't even use Nvidia

970m here, latest drivers work great and I am not having any troubles.

Maybe you should upgrade to a bed-bound laptop.

Why the fuck does everyone leap onto the newest driver? Gtx 980ti here still running a driver that is close to 6 months old. Don't even know the number honestly. Drivers are like BIOS flashes. Of it ain't broke, don't fix it. Bound to cause more problems than fix.

They're getting ready for the 1080 launch, it seems

This happened to me too for the 2 March updates. It completely fucked my system. Ever since then, Ive been using November drivers that I still had downloaded. I have a 780 though and I'm too afraid to update drivers. I'm surprised no big places are covering the driver fuck ups. Didn't even know it was the drivers fault till I read an article warning people about it.

I don't update stable drivers like a retard.

It's usually a couple of FPS and only somewhat matters if you plan to play those games within the first month of so of their life. Otherwise just wait for a driver that comes out that isn't rushed to meet Game Day and has no major issues cropping up within the first weeks.

It has LONG been the standard not to update your graphics card drivers willy nilly. That goes for a lot of things actually.

>>54643804
I did and everything works fine on my machine w/ Windows 10.

This is the third GPU killer issue this year on nvidia isn't it? Thats not even counting all the shitty win10 drivers releases on weekly basis.
