May 28, 201214 yr Commercial Member Maybe I should just wait for a 300+ release which has a fix for this listed in its changes. Okay, I saw there was a Beta 302.xx release so I tried that -- same result as with 301. But i took the opportunity to look at those clocks and you are right. They were at their minimum idle values. Even trying to select the "P0" level in the overclocking tab wouldn't change that. I saw the 296.10 drivers too (my previous was 295.51) so I tried those, and they work fine -- frame rates up on the limits again and the clocks match my overclocking settings. I hope nVidia are working on this as it does most certainly seem to be a serious bug for some of us! Regards Pete Dowson Win10: 22H2 19045.2728 CPU: 9900KS at 5.5GHz Memory: 32Gb at 3800 MHz.

May 28, 201214 yr I hope nVidia are working on this as it does most certainly seem to be a serious bug for some of us! I don't have the issue with my GPU but yes I hope they do. It is really a shame that you of all people can't enjoy the 1/2 refresh rate goodness after all you have done for the community.

May 28, 201214 yr Hi Pete, Some have reported 3d clock problems with the 300 series : http://forums.nvidia...pic=226930&st=0 You could perhaps check your clock settings with Nvidia Inspector. I have this issue. It is extremely irritating and I hope they resolve it asap.
May 29, 201214 yr Ok I tried the new drivers, fsx framelock, and nvidia inspector vsync divider. I really thinks it's alot smoother. I was too fast on approach today and marvelled at the smoothness as I was doing energy waste turns. Normally I have my scenery off for jets but I turned it all the way up and locked at 15 fps. It was a trip seeing the little houses get bigger in the 737. Looks good so far, I'm going to test more.
May 31, 201214 yr I thought, this was something for the high-end machines only. But after trying this new approach I am speechless! It really works. My fps rose some 8-10fps AND no stuttering.

Regards Pete Dowson Pete I had the identical issue, so I did what you seem to have as well, reverted to my 296.1 and everything is fine now. The 300+ series are not working correctly for me.

The 300+ series are not working correctly for me. I'll check now and then for updates, just in case, but I can't grumble about the performance I'm getting with the 296 version.

May 31, 201214 yr Looks like I have the issue too, on my 580. So, I hope they address this issue. I am surprised they have not released a fix, as it is widespread.Will try the drivers you are using Pete.

May 31, 201214 yr What is the issue guys? Either I'm not looking at the right place or I have no problem!?
May 31, 201214 yr Commercial Member What is the issue guys? Either I'm not looking at the right place or I have no problem!? Seems only us unlucky few have the problem -- 3xx.xx series drivers locking the clock rates on the video card to their minimum, the power-saving idle rates. My 40 fps + in FSX with 29x.xx drivers drops to below 12 and mostly around 4-6! Unflyable! Pete Win10: 22H2 19045.2728 CPU: 9900KS at 5.5GHz Memory: 32Gb at 3800 MHz.

June 1, 201214 yr Ok, looks like I was wrong, my clock on my 580 is working. Read it wrong. Senior moment.

June 1, 201214 yr I have been quite surprised with the great performance from the 3xx drivers and NI 1.9.6.5. I set the VSync to 1/2 and keep the NI limiter off. In FSX I have the limiter set to 24. Super smooth. The only discrepancy is a little blurriness on distant objects, which is a small price to pay. Even that could probably be fixed by increasing texture resolution. My graphics card is a 9800GT. Ben
June 1, 201214 yr I am running the latest ones and GPUZ is showing the correct clocks on my 570. Did anyone go into the overclock area of the inspector? If you do, for some reason it drops one of the clocks back, but GPUZ still reports the correct speed. Not sure what is going on there. Bob Officially retired

I changed it to 0.33 and get very good results. Switchboard - Track Your Simulator Add-ons - Throttle Quadrant
