**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

[Rogueywon]

I had issues with the end-January drivers on my 4090 - intermittent black-screens until I fiddled around with g-sync settings a bit to fix them.

 

[Bito]

4070Ti and had a black screen following install on drivers before the Hotfix set.

Haven't noticed any problems here.

Anyone have black screens double check it's not the onboard GPU. I disabled mine as windows kept in installing the AMD driver for the IGPU.

Na it's not, that was disabled...

Has been fine for years up until the latest drivers. So far so good on hotfix though

 

[gpuerrilla]

I have been using the studio driver.

 

[Boomstick777]

Seems fine here, latest driver.

 

[Simon Belmont]

I had black screen on the older drivers with my 4070 super. I'll sit back and wait

I know it's a bit buggy and I generally just look at it now to see what it suggests over what I chose, but quite a few games the NVIDIA app wants me to run at 2560x1080 when I have a 4k monitor (4090).

Another hotfix:

Here is the changelog for Nvidia GeForce Hotfix Display Driver 572.75:

GeForce Hotfix Display Driver version 572.75 is based on our latest Game Ready Driver 572.70:

• [GeForce RTX 5080/5090] Graphics cards may not run at full speeds on system reboot when overclocked [5088034]
• [GeForce RTX 50 series] GeForce RTX 50 series GPUs crashes with black screen [5120886]

Geesh 5000 series cards are really having a time of it

 

[playtech1]

4080 Super FE and the latest March drivers caused a black screen requiring a hard reboot. I reinstalled the drivers just to be safe and the reinstall went off without a black screen.

5080 updated in my main PC without a black screen

 

[wunkley]

These drivers for the 50 series are the worst Nvidia drivers I can remember for YEARS. All sorts of issues.

 

[ljt]

Not sure if it's coincidence, but the 572 drivers caused artifacting on my 3080fe, like little black random squares as if like VRam was on the blink.

Dropped back to older 566 version and all been OK over last 4 or 5 days since....

572.70 have fixed the black screen on my 4070.....so far, hopefully that's the end of it.

 

[Spils]

The latest drivers ok? I know theres been issues with the previous few sets. I have a game that keeps crying about updating my drivers so whats the most stable of all the newer releases guys?

 

[wunkley]

Yet more glaring problems with latest drivers and the 50 series. Not seen anyone else mention this on here but I found a thread on reddit linked below describing the issue exactly

TL;DR: Latest framegen DLLs (for DLSS4 MFG) do not work properly with Gsync and Vsync enabled. Completely borked.

https://www.reddit.com/r/FuckTAA/comments/1itg4e7/dlss_4_frame_generation_new_model_not_working

Confirmed the issue myself in Cyberpunk and Indiana Jones.
Have Nvidia smoked a bad batch of crack recently or something? This is getting ridiculous now.

 

[breathe3asy]

@wunkley is 1 driver away from a meltdown I reckon

 

[Damien.]

Nvidia still cant get the new Nvidia app right - having a right nightmare trying to get it to recognise/optimise some of my games

 

[r22snapper]

I thought the broken GPU boost after overclocking was annoying but the constant blackscreens necessitating safe mode, DDU and trying the next new driver that allegedly fixes the problem is really winding me up. For all the grief AMD used to get I never had problems like this.
