Just be glad they didn't fuck everything up

you're not meant to update it, stupid

>>716103008 (OP)
The difference between 120 and 132 FPS isn't all that big.

>>716103008 (OP)
You don't need to update drivers. Only the first time you bought the card.
After that every driver update will just accelerate the planned obsolescence.

This was a real thing btw. Every driver since 566 or whatever has been complete garbage

>>716104432
this is correct im still using 566.36 the only good driver they released.

did you play a game that was capped by your gfx card?

>>716104432
>>716104560
I’m convinced that they started using AI to make new drivers because there’s no other explanation for the total and complete enshitification of all drivers since last December.

it was over when they started geforce experience

>>716104432
I swear Nvidia has some of the most insane brand loyalists I've ever encountered.

>tfw one of the drivers I updated to required wiping and reinstalling because it fucked up everything on screen

>>716104862
>buy AMD
>it's slow
>buy Nvidia
>it's fast
I mean, it's hard to not be one when AMD hasn't competed since they bought ATi.

I think I legitimately had psychosis from all the crashing and gaslighting from niggers that said my psu was faulty.

>It crashes

>>716104737
Probably, NVIDIA doesn't care about gaming anymore. They still release some cards to prevent Intel or AMD from stealing their position in the market, but their main focus is everything related to AI datacenters now.

Kek!

It works on my machine!

>>716104994
>don't care about gaming

>AMD supposedly cares about gaming
>is competing with budget cards from last generation

>>716104862
To be fair they were the superior brand for a long time and the inflated prices of GPUs has amplified the tribalism.

>>716105047
>cards so good the driver barely works
kek, lmao even.

>>716104917
By what metric is AMD slow?
Sure until the 9000 series they underperformed in ray tracing otherwise it's pretty game specific if if it favors one brand over another.

>>716105106
The 4090 is 2.75 years old.
The 9070XT is less than half a year old, and doesn't come close.

>>716105081
Oh I'm aware, for a long time there was no reason to get AMD over Nvidia either high end or low end but shit has changed a lot.
I often here talking points like it's 2010.

It took nvidia almost 3 months to fix this btw, and the only reason it happened that “quickly” is because GamersNexus made a video. The intel Bluetooth thing was just fixed recently.

>>716105180
They aren't even close to the same price point either.
The one area Nvidia absolutely dominate is the high end market with no competition, even the 7900xtx was more of a 4080 rival and both get beat on by the 4090, and the 5090 is even further ahead.

Literally works fine on my machine.

>>716105561
Yeah because they fixed that in 576.02 you stupid nigger

>>716105561
My house caught fire and my dog is pregnant as a result of installing this driver.

>>716105520
Are you just pretending to be retarded?
That not even remotely what I said or implied.

>>716105654
I impregnated your dog, sorry.

>>716104432
kek its true

>Goes all in on AI.

I don't think they can fuck it up worse.

sorry amd shills, i'll still simp for nvidia
