thanks bro. only two 16 issues? not bad. Nvidia software is awesome.
lol… “awesome”
yeah much better than AMD. AMD releases hardware and spends about 2-3 years to make its software functional. AMD = Another Massive Disappointment
Oh, don’t get me wrong friend, I totally agree with ya. I’ve been Green Team for years now but to say Nvidia drivers are “awesome”? Not so much…
