Hi guys how are you?
Are you with lower core after 368.xx drivers? all 3 372.xx drivers give something about 13mhz less when you start a game or even playing a gem, it`s clear that the core is lower comparing to 368.xx, anyone with thi issue?This happens still with the overclock
Just to know i use here a EVGA 1080 SC SLI ACX 3.0
Thanks

I noticed this too.......My OC registers lower clocks in general with 372.90 driver.......this happens on driver to driver updates in the past. I just had to turn up my OC, to get the core clock I wanted, there are other issues with the newest .90 driver, check the Nvidia site page 17 pages of issues. They are spending too much time/focus on this G-Sync stability BS....... they NEED to focus on stable game optimizations.....
I will never bother with a G-Sync panel, so many problems!  I never play with V- Sync enabled I guess I don't understand why anyone would want to limit their frame rates!

 I thought I read mention somewhere in the forum that the new driver increased their temps on the gpu. Could be a possible correlation between the two?

Nope, i testes with 368.xx and 372.xx at same game temps and the clocks are different, the 372 branck gives less mhz than older drivers

Just like here, already posted 100000 times at geforce foruns about this issue and the afterburner memory bug but they just ignore

I tested what you had said, and noticed a slight decrease in my overclock on my reference GTX 1080 ACX 3.0.  With the 372.70 drivers I was able to achieve +250 on the core clock.  With the 372.90, I got +240 before the driver blanked.  I don't see a lot of performance difference, but the decrease seems real.
