nvidia driver 295.73 and graphics problems

Desertowl · #1 03-13-2012, 05:00 PM

Well, mine is a gigabyte, but not OC'ed, and i doubt its wattage issue.
the glitches were not there with the old driver and in your qoute from the nvidia forum it is stated that:
"We will have to wait to see if new drivers solve anything, but I doubt they will as the older drivers still seem to cause issues."

since MP is crashing at the moment anyway and graphic patch should be made available very soon now (hopefully...), i will keep on waiting patiently.
It was important for me to notify the developers of this issue so it will be taken into account.

Installed latest drivers, I think it got even worse...
same kind of black artifacts.

thx for the hint with the voltage...i have a EVGA 560Ti SC, set my voltage to 1.050v from 1.025v and the artefact are gone...

Hello Heinz,

Can you elaborate more on the voltage setup of the card? I don't have any other issues with the new drivers at any other sim / game so far.
If my card is not OC'ed, what are the correct voltage values and how do I set them up?

Heinz Laube · #7 03-16-2012, 12:45 PM

standard is 1.000V, in idle mode 0.95V , light OC versions have 1.025V...u can go up to 1.150V safely with OC without send ur card to the hell , some models get up to 1,200V, but just for extreme needed.... 1000Mhz GPU Clock u can reach with 1.130V, depend on model..( just as sidenote, since u not overclock)....

i use EVGA Precision for my card... u can use MSI Afterburner for change voltage, aswell

Well, 1.05V did the trick here as well, but I still don't know why changing drivers required manual intervention with the voltage regulation.
However - if anyone else has these problems, it seems like the solution.

thanks to all who helped.

edit - in very intense air combat (enemy plane very close, while firing guns) the artifacts still remains, much less than before and for a very brief time.
should i increase voltage again?
