    Let's see how much this driver will destroy for the users :D Please post bench results. Previous Nvidia driver 466.27 was a huge mess for the Newer Alienware's.

    @HaloGod2012 Nothing in the released notes for 466.47 list issues/problems you enjoyed with the Alienware's and Nvidia drivers. Maybe better luck with this one? :)

    The fact that they continue trying to force laptop owners into using DCH feces drivers in spite of the "may encounter issues" warning (not to mention the DCH driver memory leaks) is proof that they care more about making the Redmond Reprobates happy by pushing their filth than they care about the stupid nonsense GeFarts GPU owners have to put up with when using those inferior UWP-facilitating DCH cancer drivers. They should ask themselves why anyone would actually want digi-trash from the Windows Store installed on their system.

    It looks like they fixed the overclocking and black screen issue with this latest driver on my m17 R4. Installed with max overclocks and have been gaming for about an hour with no issues. @Papusan
