790 corruption issues?

I would run at 1600Mhz until BIOS matures a little then...

sorry guys, dont have the time to catch up with this thread, but in case some of you still have corruption issues gary over at anandtech is kind enought to offer to forward your problems to nvidia.

However, we are still seeing reports on other forums with users having problems with the updated BIOS code. If you are one of the unlucky souls with this continuing problem then we would like for you to email us ( gary dot key at anandtech dot com ) with your configuration and settings. We will try to replicate your problem, but more importantly we will continue to work with NVIDIA to solve any remaining issues with this chipset in regards to data corruption.

thanks gary

I already emailed him about the SLI video freezes. Hopefully this will be solved soon.

Has anyone tried the new nvidia chipset drivers just released (version 15.17)? They are WHQL and I am trying to figure out what they changed.

i heard some issues about nvidia packaging the drivers incorrectly or something like that. apparently the installation would freeze in the middle when installing the ethernet drivers. i'm gonna wait a few days until it's confirmed nvidia has fixed whatever problem it was.

You probably heard that from me or from the guy in the eVGA forums. Whatever the case is, the good side about this is that at least NVIDIA is updating their drivers. Remember 680i? We had 9.53 for like 2 years...

they have reposted the drivers for download on the nvidia site again (after pulling them for 2 days)
