    Makes sense they would run them through the same build pipelines so they can attempt to be sure changes don't break the notebook drivers. Typically they release them all at the same time.

    Just popped in to say how AWESOME this driver is!

    Massively increased my titan x pascal's performance in several programs based specperfwise. Like massive difference on the order 50%+. It is literally a semi-quadro driver for titan xp/xP.

    G-Sync screen flicker is a thing? I've never experienced it in my GT73.

    Is there anything specific that causes it? I'd like to see if I can make it happen.
