Juddering arriving at stations cured!

[Gortron]

Hi,

I recently installed a Samsung EVO 960 NVMe M.2 drive and cloned over my SSD which also had Elite installed on it. Now it could be some sort of coincidence, and perhaps it was the recent Rift update or a driver update but it seems to me that has cured the judder when dropping out of SC at stations. It has gone completely! Interestingly and rather annoyingly the drive is only running about 2x the speed of the SSD it replaced because my M.2 slot only supports PCIe 2.0.

It would be interesting if other NVMe M.2 drive users have smooth loading at stations or if many people suddenly have lost the judder and it is just a driver improvement but having found a potential cure I thought better share my finding!!

If using Nvidia.... What graphics card card driver version are you using ? ... just wondering..

Driver version is 390.77

I used to get the judder for about 5 seconds when exiting supercruise at stations and one day it just stopped months ago. I don't know why.
For reference I use a 850 EVO 1TB Sata III.

I updated to 390.77 and all is well in VR. A few complaints have been pinned against this driver version and so I was reluctant to use it. Not sure what SSD I’m using but I’m not experiencing any judder....... so far.

I did a fresh Windows install on a Samsung EVO 960 NVMe, which worked for me. I always thought it was the fresh install that solved the problem, but maybe it is the speed of the M.2 slot.
