NVIDIA just dropped a shiny new driver, the NVIDIA Geforce 572.60 WHQL, and it’s packed with some exciting updates that will grab your attention. If you play Monster Hunter Wilds or NARAKA: BLADEPOINT, this one might give your gameplay a nice little boost!
Now, let’s talk about those pesky black screen issues that have been bothering owners of the RTX50 series GPUs. I haven’t personally faced this problem (lucky me!), but downloading this driver could be your ticket to a smoother experience if you’ve been dealing with it.
Another issue that caught my attention was the “water-like” artifacts appearing when forcing X16 AF from the NVIDIA Control Panel. Many users, including myself, reported this when using both my RTX 5080 and RTX 5090. I can’t say if this update has resolved it since I haven’t installed it myself, but my fingers are crossed!
If you’re into VR gaming, there’s good news, too! This driver aims to tackle those annoying stuttering issues on GeForce RTX 50 series cards while running SteamVR. So, expect a more fluid experience in your virtual adventures!
In addition, they’ve addressed some audio glitches when connecting via DisplayPort 1.4 with DSC at high refresh rates, which is definitely a welcome fix for those who use multiple displays or crave high-fidelity sound.
The NVIDIA Geforce 572.60 WHQL driver also introduces support for an additional 29 G-SYNC Compatible displays, which will enhance your variable refresh rate experience. This is great stuff if you want to upgrade your setup!
