I have the newest driver (576.28) loaded now that was released and I still have lots of issues. I still have to turn off GSYNC while I'm working or if I minimize the horizon client the driver crashes. It will recover, but it takes a few minutes. Anyone else using that client with a 5000 series card?

They broke driver anisotropic filtering in some games. Seems to mostly affect UE4 games. Enabling it will cause green/red texture corruption. It's kinda incredible that some games even include ray training yet offer piss poor texture filtering (I'm looking at you, Wuthering Waves). Kinda odd that it's broken with 5000 series but fine with older cards. Hopefully they'll fix it soon.

Other than that I haven't had issues (although I haven't really had time to play).

-More MFG nonsense slides? So I take it 5060 is going to land maybe 10-15% higher than it's predecessors in most standard scenarios?

Someone with Photoshop skills should combine those bars with an image of JHH as Pinocchio and the DLSS 4 bar for the 5060 being his nose.

What's more concerning is what kind of idiocy they'll need to invent for the next generation to have even bigger bars. Does it count as a new frame if you just send the same completed frame ten times in a row every 2 ms?

I really do wonder what they are doing. I kinda understand display related issues since quite a bit has changed there but the rest...

Probably put their star driver developers on WinARM to meet self inflicted deadlines.
