gtx 970 drivers update

[kestzro]

Hello, currently Im using 352.86 drivers. I was wondering if I do a clean install of new drivers via geforce experience, will a custom resolution for the monitor (which Ive created for overclocking my monitor's refresh rate) be gone after the installation? (I had really hard time configuring settings whick work).
The thing is that I am having terrible memory leaks in batman arkham knight (doesnt matter what settings I use). I thought it might be because I was using only 6gb but when I added extra 4gb stick last weak, problem remained and it is still using 95% of my total ram and I just have to kill batman process (page file is manualy set to 20+gb). I read that for some people upgrading drivers to 353.30 solved memory leak problem so maybe someone tried this and can confirm? I'd have done this but I dont want to loose my resolution configs.

That batman game is simply ATROCIOUSLY ported over to the pc. There is little anyone can do to improve its performance, save for the devs of coarse.

I have a GTX 970 Strix with an I5-4590 and 16GB G.Skill RAM and it plays fine and max at 50+ fps. The only issues I ever have is texture pop out and the occasional stutter.

I can't say with absolute certainty, but I'm pretty sure that doing a "clean install" of drivers will wipe all of your settings. Doing a clean install wipes all custom settings for games made through Nvidia control panel, so I would assume it will also wipe out your custom resolution. Batman: AK is a really bad port on PC, so bad that they stopped selling it and are working on fixing it, there is supposed to be a new patch this August. The 353.30 are drivers released for Batman so they might improve the memory leak problem, so its a call only you can make. If you wanna play it that bad right now then all I can propose is see if you can look at what it took to make the custom resolution and write down the settings or take screen grabs of them and just redo it once you install the new drivers. Or just install the new drivers without the clean install, I have been using Nvidia cards for years and I usually just install new drivers without "clean install" and I have rarely ever had it cause me problems, and if it does all you have to do is redo the driver install with a "clean install". So there's not much risk involved. I recommend just updating without "clean install" and it will work fine, and you keep your custom settings intact.
