Nvidia 528.02 + Q2 = performance drop?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Prior to a recent Nvidia driver update I had good performance on my Q2, but immediately after updating to 528.02 my performance went to hell, with this weird screen warping--imagine the lower half of the screen shifting up/down/left/right for a split second--in the headset (ASW off). Has anyone else had issues with this driver update?

not recently, though i have seen this. what i did was noted my NCP settings, then restored to default. tried DCS. then set all the settings the way they were prior to restoring defaults. word of note though. i am a 2D player. i personally think the NCP gets corrupted.

Try a clean install of the drivers in safe mode with DDU.

I also experienced a serious drop in performance with this driver; about 12-15%. I then used DDU and cleanstall, but unfortunately no improvement. Back to the previous driver(again) fixed everything. I guess I'll wait until the next driver;-)

"Performance drop" is perhaps inaccurate wording, since I still have 45fps (half refresh rate) but periodic drops into the 30s, where I get artifacting like a VHS tape having misaligned frames. I did a clean reinstall of the Nvidia drivers but haven't had time to play-test.

Uninstall and clean with DDU, reinstall of Nvidia drivers did not solve the issue, unfortunately. It's not only with DCS either, but any VR program.

Nealius - Were your drivers up to date prior to installing 528.02 or had you skipped a few updates?  I've taken a performance hit with my Q2 - crazy screen tearing and stutters - to the point where it's back in the drawer.  I had it running sweet as a nut, even in multiplayer but something just happened and I can't pin it to anything I've done other than the occasional driver update.  Have you tried the latest 528.49?  I'm about to as I've nothing to lose!
