NVIDIA Releases GeForce 378.57 Hotfix Drivers

btarunr · Feb 1, 2017

NVIDIA released the GeForce 378.57 Hotfix drivers, designed to address glaring bugs. The driver update fixes a critical game crash bug noticed in "Minecraft" and other Java-based titles; and resolves "debug mode" being the default mode on GPUs based on the "Pascal" architecture. The rest of their features appear consistent with older releases. Find the driver from the links below.

Oh look. the weekly NVIDIA driver bug.

Neither red nor green can claim any advantage. Both camps' drivers are a mess constantly.

IMO NVIDIA's quality has been consistently decreasing while AMD's has continued to improve. From that viewpoint, AMD's doing better.

I just installed 378.49. :shadedshu:

Hm, if Pascal does not default to debug mode anymore, there should be a little performance to be gained. Probably unnoticeable though, otherwise this would have been caught earlier.

I don't know, I haven't used AMD in quite a while, but I saw nothing bad (or worse) about Nvidia's drivers either.
I have seen reports of Nvidia issues, but never experienced any myself. From that viewpoint, nothing has really changed.

I'm not so sure about that. AMD has really improved, but I have more problems with my RX480 and Nano than my 980 Ti. Even with Relive.
