Question / Help Latest Nvidia Driver Causing High CPU Usage?

[Rdelaura]

The only thing I can think between last stream (Saturday) and the most current (tonight) was the new Nvidia driver. I am having 11-12% CPU usage and obvious frame drops and freezes. Anybody else having this issue and did you download the most recent Nvidia driver? I have attached tonights log

the latest nvidea drivers (version 430.39) have caused this, with nothing running a nvidea container is using 18% of cpu on my laptop.

The Nvidia driver hotfix, version 430.53 can now be downloaded from the support pages of the company website. The hotfix should take care of the high CPU load problem, also fixing some flickering in 3DMark as well as in some situations using multiple monitors.

edit: once version 430.53 is installed my cpu is back to 1% when idle again.

I got a reply back on twitter with the hotfix. Thanks!
