New x8 driver branch fixes bugs and then grant uplifts in benchmarks as reported by users across tech forums! Blackwell unleashed

a whole 3% wow

Source?
No one is talking about any performance gains with these drivers, in the guru3d forums, only bug fixes, of which there are many.

3-5% average over a large game summary is of value. Some random forum user claiming 3-5% means nothing.

These performance improvements via drivers were always seemed like a myth to me. You can run the same test and get different results many times. Its just so many variables when it comes to PCs

That is for some synthetic benchmarks, such as 3dMark.
And only one user talking about it. And it might just be the new power management fixes with these drivers, that allow him to sustain higher clocks with his water cooling system.

There is no such thing as Nvidia fine-wine, only vinegar.

I'm still on 576.15. I can probably test later when I get back from work.

Is Nvidia Smooth Motion available in this driver for the 4000 series?

 

[whyman]

If it really is an extra 3% overall. My 5060ti 16gb is very happy.

 

[Alexios]

It's half a year old with most people unable to find any for months. Not exactly fitting the ageing like fine wine tag, that's stuff that's years old, succeeded by new products but still supported with improvements & optimisations rather than abandoned/made obsolete. This is hardware early access.

3-5% performance increases for free is amazing, actually. People regularly pay hundreds of dollars for ~10-15% gains

install and find out?

 

[amigastar]

Yeah, it's not supported from what i've seen.

It's supposed to be coming in the drivers along the oct-nov time frame
