Do you update your graphics driver, /g/? Or any other drivers

with amd its pretty much a joke but nvidia can actually perform better with new games when gameready driver is installed.

I usually find that newer drivers break the cards. I'm still on 358 (from November last year) on my 980Ti. Tried updating in May because why not, but it just fucked everything up (don't remember the details) so I had to roll back. That's how it usually goes for me - I find a stable and good driver then stick to it until I get a new card and the cycle repeats.

Only if you own their latest cards. Performance either stays the same or sometimes decreases for any older ones. There's zero point in ever updating again once a new series arrives.

I actually updated once past 337, it was 34x-something and it broke the sleep functionality. Each time the PC woke up, everything that used HWA felt weird, like dropping frames every few seconds, even scrolling in browser. Only fix was a driver restart.

I do but I tend to stick with the ones that perform best on my hardware. Right now that's 372.54

What about BIOS updates?

Same policy. Unless something (a new component) does not work or a newer version adds newer functionality that I need, will stay on current version.

Do you like BBC?

No, why? Most driver updates are for games I'll never play. And I know out GPUs won't get updates anymore. If you run Kepler, you might want older drivers.

Also, nice to see that 780Ti, I think you got the same model (Gigabyte).

This is the only correct answer.

Currently using 362.00.

Newer drivers kill my GPU after playing games for some time.

Nope, what I have works, and if it works why risk breaking it?

I fucking swear if I have to replace a card I got earlier this year.

I update my drivers all the time even when I don't play newer games.

Your GPU is more likely faulty since my 970 is completely crash free and Error 43 is a hardware error.

Try resiting the card into the PCIe slot, if you're using the screws to hold the card in place make sure you're not screwing them too tight to the bracket they tend to rip off the GPU off the PCIe slot when you do that.

Updating? No. If I find a working driver, I stick with it.
