after updating to 595.71 compared to 591.74 for some reason the video card consumes less power (by 50 watts for no reason) and I lost several fps across all resolutions and presets.
this is just very incompetent on Nvidia's part... I will roll back to the previous drivers.
Resident Evil Requiem's performance is no different vs. 591.86. Those older 576.88's are still much, much better for that specific game. At least for a 4090. I shouldn't be surprised, though. They probably got rushed out the door just so they have something safe to replace 595.59 with. These likely got the bare minimum QA/QC for any other issues.

I'm just staying on 577.00 now forever, DLSS updates can be done manually anyway so all good for keeping up to date with tech.
The annoying thing is it's not just Requiem, Fair few games have lower performance with these new drivers, Back to 577.00 Studios I go.
Same with Battlefield 6, big degradation
