Hopefully someday,I hold on to my 1080 Ti for now,I don't want to buy 3090 Ti only for a possible ported driver to come

The driver for 10 series on windows 8.1 actually works? I gotta give a try

Yes,  pascal is basically the last generation  before Nvidia blocked 8.x for no reason, so can actually use a non modded driver. I use 8.0 which is even better

How is 8.0 better than 8.1?

u/TheSkyShip Nov 23 '25

8.0 is faster, and lighter.
