Hey guys, suddently my game runs bad. I don't know if it is the new game patch yesterday or if it is actually the newest nvidia driver. Anyone who can confirm having worse performance with newest driver?

    Did you attempt a rollback? That would certainly answer your question. If not you someone should :), though I must say it really wouldn't inform me of much I'm an AMD user unfortunately. :D

    I've got a radeon, wife has nvidia, neither of us are experiencing any issues.

    Whenever a patch (regardless of how small it might seem), check your addons, one or more of them might be the culprit. If you don't use addons, then make a mental note to "not fix what isn't broken" aka don't dl new drivers unless your current ones aren't working.

    Had a problem with new Nvidia drivers a while back with a different game, since then i usually wait a week before installing new ones, and only install the ones that are 'registered' not the beta versions.  Before doing the whole driver reinstallation or role back though, might be a good idea to do a quick virus scan to be on the safe side.image

    Does the new drivers support SLI?, If not I won't change.

    Think your confusing drivers with games, the driver is for the video card, and there wouldn't be any reason to drop SLI or Crossfire etc depending on which brand you choose, whether a game supports it however, is the real question. i don't know if there is a profile for ESO yet, so ESO might still be none SLI.. probably does support it, though given the amount of things being fixed it might be something that is still 'in progress' . image

    I just updated my NVidia, nothing different here. Still running fine.

    Game does not currently support SLI. That doesn't mean you can't enable SLI to see how it impacts it. Everyone's experience depending on the settings and hardware will vary. As someone suggested, try whatever you like and if it doesn't feel like a positive change, either disable SLI or roll back to a previous driver. Its very easy to do.

    I installed the beta drivers and so far no issues here, but I haven't tested enough.
