I've noted that since updating to 375.70 from the previous drivers, I am getting quite clear and significant framerate drops on my 1060 SC. For example, in Fallout 4 on ultra 1080p, prior to 375.70 I was getting an almost constant 60 FPS (capped to my monitors 60 Hz refresh rate) with only very occasional brief drops of 1 or 2 FPS, whereas with 375.70, I get prolonged drops down to 35-45 FPS quite often (the GPU clock rate values aren't dropping at all, just FPS). I've visited various locations I've been to a lot just to make sure it isn't that I've just stumbled into some areas in the game that have lesser performance, and I can rule that out.
 
I've tried reinstalling the driver twice, which hasn't made any difference to it. On all occasions, I've beein installing the drivers using express installation within Gefore Experience.
 
Wondering whether it's likely to help if I do a clean install or if I should just roll back. Any other 1060 SC owners noticing an issue or is it just me?
 
UPDATE: Tried out a safe mode DDU uninstall and clean reinstall of the drivers, didn't resolve it.

Do the same and give Driver 373.06 a test run.

Welcome to the Forum loaked
Go back to Driver 373.06 if you are having problems with Driver 375.70.
