anlq Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) After stutter and lag of recent DCS updates, I tried to rollback to older version of Nvidia driver 3.47 (I'm using GTX680), and this is the result. It was about 40-50 Fps with the newest driver, then 100-150 with the old one (even 200 with A-10C). I tested with Hawk, A-10c, SA342M, I think the others will have same result. :smartass: I though about upgrading my Video Card, but this is a relief (my wallet is safe now) P/s: Please confirm if you get better FPS with older driver. :) Edited June 8, 2016 by anlq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kobac Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Hmm interesting. And which driver exactly are you using? I have two in the archives: 347.09-desktop-win8-win7-winvista-64bit-international-whql and 347.88-desktop-win8-win7-winvista-64bit-international-whql there are probably more. Which one is better?

Kayos Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) I had a new nVidia driver update yesterday but didn't notice anything slowing down. Not over the last couple either. Maybe it's because I have a new generation card though??? Are you seeing that on both maps? Edited June 8, 2016 by Kayos [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anlq Posted June 9, 2016 Author Share Posted June 9, 2016 Hi, today I tested on the other aircrafts. It does have improvement on FPS. You can see screen shots. (inside/outside cockpit) Su-25: 80-90 Su-25T: 100-120 Ka-50: 70-80 (50-60 with Skval turned on over high dense area city/tree) Mi-8MTV2: 70-90 Mirage2000c: 70-90 FW-190/BF-109 get better performance too. With 2.0 map I tested only on Gazelle, it was 70-100 , with Viviane turn on it is 50-60 (little drop on FPS than before). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kobac Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 It's possible that (driver) difference observes due to older GPU. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]Everything is possible ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefuneste01 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I tried the operation and move from 30-50 fps to 70 fps on Gazelle at first on quickstart mission/static tanks. However, I loose SLI option for my 2 660ti and can no have a working 3Dvision mode. I move DCS.exe to a new profile with nvidia inspector but did not manage to make 3Dvision work. And when I move DCS.exe back to the original profile I had the fps back to 50 fps...So it seems not very reliable... P8700K @4.8 GHz, 3080ti, 32 GB RAM, HP reverb Pro.

lefuneste01 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 After more testing, I discovered that the huge differences in fps was linked to the activation of 3Dvision. Even if no triggered, it reduced the fps when enabled in the conf. panel ! With 3dvision disabled, I have no differences between old and new driver versions...

DieHard Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) (re: Message #1) I was having negative issues also. I tried out several through GeForce Experience. I rolled back to Nvidia's 314.22 driver and have been using that edition up to a couple weeks ago for my GTX 680 and it worked OK in 1.5 . 2.0 was pushing the card's limits with stutters and freeze-ups. Just upgraded my video card to a new (newegg.com) GTX 970 and the latest driver 368.81, and a 512 GB SSD 850 Pro for DCS only. Wow, some difference. I think I am far as I can go with my old Alienware motherboard. A new build one of these days... but I am in no hurry as long as Microsoft still supports Win 7 Pro or 2.0 gets to be more demanding. 2 years later, the price comes down a wee bit. https://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/b3049/asus-strix-gtx-970-directcu-ii-oc Edited July 24, 2016 by DieHard [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Alienware PC purchased in 2011 has a 3D monitor and powered glasses, but I don't use it very often, maybe watch a 3D movie. I find the 3D throws my brain too much flying about. Will look into this. Thanks. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
