Nvidia driver have been bad lately or it’s just me?

I noticed that DLSS4 update made my RTX4080S unstable at old OC settings (2925 MHz), but lowering OC by about 25MHz has fixed this issue completely. I think DLSS transformer is using tensor cores to the fullest, that's why people need to make sure that their card is running perfectly stable OC.
 
Hell I know that their gaming division makes less profit but GPUs is what made them big.
The AI boom isn't going to last forever.
 


Not just you. DF also said NVIDIA has been dropping the ball lately.


They should sit down and fix their drivers instead of adding new stuff.

Nvidia app is crap and I have it permanently uninstalled at this point.

So far I'm using AC Shadows drivers without issued but when they appear I'm going back to December drivers.
 
Just rolled back my son's Nvidia drivers. He told me the screens were suddenly going black while playing games.

Suddenly really glad I bought AMD this round.
