What is the safest recent driver as of May 2018 for 3D Vision?
Hi everyone, I'm interested in trying some newer drivers in an attempt to resolve some issues I've been having going between 3D Vision and G-Sync on Windows 10 Creators Update (1703). I have created both enable and disable 3D Vision hotkeys and I'm not sure whether or not that is the problem but sometimes simply enabling 3D Vision seems to break G-Sync (for games where G-Sync is the better alternative, i.e. GTA 5 due to 3 Core bug etc.). I'm currently on 388.71 and am afraid to update from here. Can anyone recommend a solid, relatively newer display driver?
If anyone knows what the problem might be where 3D Vision seems to break G-Sync (90% of the time I need to restart the computer as of late) any help in that regard is also greatly appreciated. Asus Rog Swift PG278Q.
Thanks.

In order to fix restarting, what i have found out, yes, it fucks gsync for me too, is that when you disable 3d vision, enabled it gain and you will see a question with something like "gsync will be disabled, proceed?" and click yes, then go to g-sync tab in nvidia control panel and click enable gsync, and it will disable 3d vision. Yep, its fucked up but faster than a restart

I just tried your suggestion and it still refuses to work. Right now at this moment disabling and enabling G-Sync in NVCP doesn't even cause the display to flash off for a split second like it usually does. It's like the G-Sync module isn't even responding.
In regards to the driver question, I posted this in another thread here, basically I'm on 397.64 without problems but I still have the issue where enabling 3D Vision enough times eventually bugs G-Sync:
"I'm trying to determine if my issues are hardware or OS related. I spoke with an Nvidia rep over the phone a few days ago and, rather naively, took their recommendation to simply update to the latest driver, 397.64. I refrained from doing a clean install, or DDU etc, just out of curiosity and although the driver installed properly (a rarity) the problems from 388.71 where enabling 3D Vision a few times seems to break G-Sync has persisted. I am going to try clean reinstalling this driver and I'm going to sit there and enable 3D Vision, fire up a game, exit the game, disable 3D Vision until I can replicate the G-Sync failing issue. If I can do that then it's a 99% chance my problems are related to the G-Sync module in the monitor. "

Like i have said before the Refresh of this monitor fixed alot of issues. (PG278QR) I know it's not the answer you want to hear but the original one had a hell of a lot of problems which they have fixed for the most part in the refresh. This is why I replaced my main one with it. At least according to your sig it appears you have the first model.
Also recommended deferring updates for a year in windows 10 seems they break something new at least initially on each roll out.
