358.87 is out

On other forums like nVidia's own GeForce forums many people are complaining that nVidia is purposely dumbing down the 700/600/500 line to force people to 'upgrade' to Maxwell. If this is true I'll be going AMD next time for the 1st time since 2005.

I've suspected that for years, but no hard proof.

^^^That sounds like something MS would do...

I quit updating the driver on my GTX560Ti... I didn't see any reason to keep updating it, and I'll probably do the same with my GTX760.
 
Yes it is and it is full retard on my 780 .. screws everything up and will does not fallback to the previous driver that worked.. been at this for 1½ hours now. I have this Linux deja-vu as of 10 years ago with this *****
 
and I love the informative summation "graphics driver - failed" .. and then nothing, no why, no what, no log, no nothing, just "failed, sry bro. this is your life now. We out. Peace. -Nvidia"
 
finally. After a botched upgrade attempt I could revert to windows update version if I did it twice (first winupdate try would fail too...) then with a clean slate (wiped driver info, would be installed on reboot) i'd go to install directory and "run as admin" the setup.exe manually.. do a manual install, clean, and ONLY check the driver. That worked. MEH.
 
Downloaded from GFE - selected clean install - computer restarted - then nothing but vga driver land.

I had to manually download my version then install from there. Wierdness I've never encountered before.
