New Nvidia drivers?

[Seireitou]

Hello, so on the advice of somebody on this forum, I downgraded my drivers a few months back to 361.75. This was quite some time ago and I'm wondering is there something that I should step up to now? Any good set of drivers that aren't completely broken and could lead to some performance perhaps?? I know Nvidia's graphics don't mature very well so for the 9XX series am I just stuck with this driver forever? The last good one??

Uh, no...

The drivers have been fine for months.

Update to the latest ones.

 

If you ever downgrade your drivers due to issues, all you have to do is wait for the next release, and 99% of the time it is fixed in that one.

I am not having any problems with my newly acquired 980 or its drivers. I'm not sure what the problem was for you but it seems pretty stable rn. BTW I am on 368.81

Alright, thanks.

If you continue having issues, do a clean install of the drivers.

I don't think the drivers causing issues for older cards for many updates in a row is a common thing.  I mean I only ran into that once and it was with a 560ti  where I was stuck on the same driver set for over a year untill I got a 760 due the fact that any drivers that came out after a certain point caused major graphical and stability issues with the 560ti.  I would say update the drivers through a clean install to the newest and try those out but keep a back  up of your current driver's installer incase you run into issues.

Family 364 (which includes 365.xx) was a bad set of drivers. But 367, which I believe includes the latest realease, seems to be working just fine.

No issues atm, I played a few games of csgo which isn't the best game to test it out on but I'm doing comp runs tonight so that'll be all I'm playing. I admit, I didn't do a clean install so hopefully that doesn't prove to have any problems....
