Which Nvidia GFX Driver

[noddy]

Hi All,

I am having stability issues with the driver I am using (471.68) and wonder what you guys are running?

Cheers,
Noddy

456.71 old but fine for me

Which graphic card do you have ?
I have a GTX 1070ti and I'm still running the 457.30 drivers, without any problems.

Sorry, I have GFX 2080 ti

Hi Noddy,

i'm running the same drivers as you are and have an RTX2080Super (ASUS ROG Strix). No stability problems here.

What problems do you have exactly?

Cheers,

After while the sim freezes then crashes back to desk top.

Sim freezing after a while ?
Could it be an overheating problem maybe ?

 

[noddy]

It can vary in length of time for it to freeze. I think the highest temperature I have had on the card is 71 /72c.

I have learned not to trust the indicated temps too much. With my previous computer I was getting crashes although the temps were still kind of OK. High, but not critical.
After lowering the temps (clean up inside the computer fans etc...), the crashes were gone.

471.68 here Noddy, no problems at all with a 3090x24GB MSI.

Try Rolling Cache 8 GB and no Ultra settings , road traffic to 10% and lock FPS to 30 ~ Anti-aliasing TAA , and Terrain level on detail to 80 and Objects too

I will try that and see what happens.

I think that I have found a solution to my issues, by using the recommendations in this:-

So far so good.

Looking through that list, they say put buildings to Ultra. From everything I can see, there's virtually no difference between medium, high, or ultra there. If you want to judge for yourself, here's a video that goes through all of the original settings options with visual representations of each. It's long, so grab a pencil and paper.
