I am one of those who is experiencing the "overheating /driver graphics" error message with accompanying CTD's since installing SU12 (it never happened before that), and have tried several different Nvidia drivers, old and new, with no difference -- the CTD occurs regardless. For some reason it happens much faster when I fly the Pipestrel Virus, so I have been using that plane to test different drivers. With the 531.68 driver  installed, I can report that this plane now flies for upwards of 20 minutes before triggering the error message -- much better than with other drivers (ca. 2-3 minutes at best). It's progress, and that is welcome. But I am more convinced than ever that it will take Asobo to finally resolve this issue, since many of us never even saw this error until SU12.

I started getting this error coincident with SU12, but at that time I also started using the Nvidia Filters feature. After trying a few settings changes I found on the web (like running the gpu in max performance mode) I only got relief by turning off the Nvidia filters I'd set up. Have not seen it since.

same here, I completely uninstalled geforce experience and haven't had a CTD or overheating message since.

Also, with this new driver I am no longer having the ground artifact in the aiports when switching to spot view

Dx11? 12? VR? GPU?

With DX12 in VR (Reverb G2) on a 4080, = CTD.  "Graphics device has stopped working".  

Does not happen in DX11.

9800x3d, ASUS TUF x870, 64GB G.Skill DDR5, MSI Ventus 4080, HP Reverb G2 VR, FlyVirtual.net, Private Pilot SEL rating, subLogic FlightSim 1983 & every release since

 

While we are all sharing experiences, there is nothing concrete, no real clues, and we are all still peeing in the wind really.  The random nature of this issue is so frustrating. 

After suffering these GPU errors on every other flight and at different times with different aircraft (but not recently), I am also beginning to wonder if there is a third factor at play other than just the sim and the Nvidia drivers.

For me (and quite a few others) it definitely started during the SU beta last autumn, and that was without changing any drivers.  Obviously, this points to a change with the sim rather than the driver.  The only other thing I did was uninstall FSUIPC, and I can't remember having an issue since, must be about 50 flights.  But then others use FSUIPC without issues, so, basically we are nowhere and I just feel lucky that I don't have the issue at the moment, but when I did, it was relentless and was really getting me down  I feel so sorry for people who are suffering this problem as I know what it is like.

Hopefully the new MSFS crash logging will give us some clues.

DX12?

Also, I have uninstalled Geforce experience as well, so maybe that is a factor. There have been other issues with gf experience recently, like causing stuttering. They brought out an update for that, or you could install a beta version that fixed it also.

tested 531.68 with no luck , then reverted to 531.29 again , completed a short flight (KLGA-KEWR-KJFK on c172) and back to main menu for 30 min, then started a new flight with pmdg 738 KEWR-KDTW. All went smooth till the final approach , changing a cam view, black screen and total pc freeze…Total sim runing 4 hours
i’m done

Tried it ...

So far didn't notice any differences... Aircraft still fly strangely in MFS ... it didn't fix the aerodynamics ... Bummer!

I bet it also Didn't fix X Plane clouds 😂

yes DX12.

Last week I did 3 things randomly on the sim but I am not sure what could have solved it:

1. ddu previous nvidia driver and install new one clean, no geforce experience.

2. on the addon organizer there is an option to seach for duplicates airports and turned out I had BMW bolzano and also the asobo default aiport activated. I removed the BMW and kept the asobo one.

3. I was doing some testing on DX11 and switch back and forth between DX11 and DX12 while cleaning the cache before every test. I ended up staying with DX12 due to the FG extra FPs and smoothness.

I can't really pinpoint which one helped but honestly it's been more than a week without the annoying ground texture glitch

No issues here. 99% of so-called "driver issues" are related to a user's particular setup. 

No idea why folks uninstall Geforce Experience.

Because it’s not needed whatsoever.

It's bloatware, look at the extra background processes with it installed vs uninstalled...
