Ratfink Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 What's the recommended method these days for updating Nvidia drivers? I haven't done it yet since owning this rig, and my last was AMD.

Silver_Dragon Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Use GeForce Experience Utility, that check your video card, install all drivers, and some them, configure best graphic settings for games check here: http://www.geforce.com/geforce-experience/download Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratfink Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 The Geforce experience looks interesting. Does it update drivers reliably? My last Nvidia rig was a while ago, and it was always a trauma updating drivers and not having problems afterwards meaning a driver sweep! My last AMD Radeon was even worse!!

joey45 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 It's easy now. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Vlerkies Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 (edited) Experience tool, let it notify you of drivers, acknowledge, and let it do the install. None of this manual uninstal instal nonsense anymore. Works for me.

Irregular programming Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 nVidia driver support has always been great, you never had to uninstall them or anything like that. The experience tool just makes it even better, you just tell it to install when it tells you you have an update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
