285.62 for me on a 2gb gtx560 non ti and it hasn't presented a single problem driver or hardware wise in the 16 days iv'e owned it and i got the core at 960,memory at 2360 without touching the voltage and still nothing.

Seems to many ti owners have issues,is it the amount of cores somehow causing a error or something?

Gtx460 users don't have this issue as much either it just seems related to mostly the 560 ti cards.

Alright so i have a gigabyte gtx 560 ti and ever since i played dead island i have been getting this messagethat my display driver stopped working and recovered itself. It also does it when i play bf3 beta. It has only happened 2 times when using firefox. Any ideas on what the issue may be. I have used driver sweeper to do a clean install of the drivers. The has been solid for like 5 months maybe more. But yes it is very annoying And im hoping i can get a fix beforr bf3 is offically out. Thanks

What say you ATI apologists? Why are AMDs drivers so terrible? When will AMD fix their crap and get rid of the TDR bug?

This issue went as fast as it came. When I first got a 460 a year ago there were no issues , had the Desktop driver rest issue a total of 6 to 10 times before it was fixed which in the grand scheme wasn't a big deal for me. Smooth sailing outside of that, guess I should cross my fingers.

I only ever got this bug while browsing with firefox. Various driver upodates didn't work. Since updating to firefox 10 the problem has completly vanished.
