Sometimes I hate Nvidia for the same reason Torvalds does.

But you really gotta respect their incredibly skillful scientists.
Such supreme and glorious technology.

The only competition to the scientists of Nvidia might just be the engineers of AMD.
 
Why install this driver with all these existing bugs? It looks like the fixed the Detroit: Become Human issue from 451.48 at least. But I'm not seeing any reason to upgrade from 451.22.

You must be new to drivers?
That list might look big and troublesome to the layman but it is actually very short, compare to the numbers of games supported by these drivers.

If you could be arsed to open the release notes:
This new Game Ready Driver provides the latest performance optimizations, profiles, and bug fixes for Death Stranding. In addition, this release also provides optimal support for Horizon Zero Dawn: Complete Edition and F1 2020.

Add this:

Select features in OpenCL 2.0 are available in the driver for evaluation purposes only. The following are the features as well as a description of known issues with these features in the driver:  Device side enqueue •The current implementation is limited to 64-bit platforms only. •OpenCL 2.0 allows kernels to be enqueued with global_work_size larger than the compute capability of the NVIDIA GPU. The current implementation supports only combinations of global_work_size and local_work_size that are within the compute capability of the NVIDIA GPU. The maximum supported CUDA grid and block size of NVIDIA GPUs is available at http:// docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-c-programming-guide/index.html#compute-capabilities. For a given grid dimension, the global_work_size can be determined by CUDA grid size x CUDA block size. •For executing kernels (whether from the host or the device), OpenCL 2.0 supports nonuniform ND-ranges where global_work_size does not need to be divisible by the local_work_size. This capability is not yet supported in the NVIDIA driver, and therefore not supported for device side kernel enqueues.  Shared virtual memory •The current implementation of shared virtual memory is limited to 64-bit platforms only.

And this:

Fixed Issues in this Release  The refresh rate of 144Hz-capable HDMI displays cannot be set above 120 Hz. [3038540]  [Kepler GPUs]: With SLI/multi-GPU and G-SYNC enabled, TDRs may occur soon after launching an application. [200628981]  [Detroit: Become Human]: The game may randomly crash. [3037846]  [Adobe Premiere]: Adjustments in Lumetri color panel causes video to appear noisy. [3038602]  [Notebook][GeForce GTX 1050 Ti]: Blue-screen crash, application hang, or system hang may occur. [3038621]  [Notebook][The Witcher 3 WILD HUNT]: The game remains minimized when the NVIDIA Control Panel >3D Settings >Manage Display Mode is set to Automatic or Optimus, and cannot be restored to full screen. [200628973]  [Notebook][G-SYNC]: Graphical corruption occurs when windowed G-SYNC+V-Sync is On while running applications in Clone/Duplicate mode. [200628911]  [Notebook]: LVDS-display goes blank upon rebooting the system after driver installation on some systems. [200627952]


And suddenly your comment stand as a very uninformed subjective view.

Of course, so is yours because you don't know what he does with his computer, and he very well could have issues introduced by the new driver that he didn't have with 451.22 based on his use case.

This is two drivers in a row where they broke this and haven’t fixed it. NVIDIA is starting to look like RTG in the driver front now.

That he cannot read release notes and thinks his specific usecases applies to all, his view is uninformed...he made it sound like the driver fixed one thing...you are trying to sail a sunken ship...good luck with that.

I just don't installing every fractional version advancement of drivers to find new games getting broken that don't get any announcement until a fix comes weeks later is all. I'm not "new" to drivers, I just don't go out and get the latest and greatest every time it's released like yourself I guess? I'm just a bit more careful/reserved personality on the spectrum, whereas some people I suppose like yourself are just on the gotta be on the front of the train. I always find it funny people are proud they spent money to rebuy the xbox 360 a bunch of times because the rrods didn't get fixed until later versions, but I guess somebody has to be the guinea pig. If you enjoy being a beta tester, keep on trucking, I endorse the free service 100%.

Calm down. When new games are released that they've optimized for, they release a new driver update. It's pretty simple and they've been doing it for years. Don't play those games or don't have an issue? Don't upgrade. I'm not planning to.

That's why I always look at the change log first. No reason to update your driver every time a new one is released.

He was responding to an ignorant comment stating that he had an "uninformed subjective view."

Let's be honest here. There's plenty of that to go around on HardForum. Ignorance and uninformed subjective views...
 
Some folks in general just can't help themselves, Bible calls them Mockers, Hecklers, modern day Internet -> Trolls -> Just ignore them and enjoy the entertainment value if any. Nothing new in the end.

I use both Nvidia and AMD GPU's (at times many of them). If a driver problem hits what you want to do, some may think the world and the company is falling apart while most don't notice a thing. Yes if you have a serious issue then it becomes a problem for you. I've had issues on both Nvidia and AMD drivers, that is why they get updated to support new programs and to fix bugs which many actually can be the program viced the driver, that has to be worked around, maybe even a compiler bug yet to be fixed by Microsoft. I like that AMD and Nvidia post the known bugs, except I really think the list is too short, so these are probably the top 10 or so being reported.

The new drivers give initial support for the new games listed, which if you are playing you now have something that will work. Now if you are playing also games that are broke -> :D. Some options are having multiple computers and GPU's etc. Console or just be smart how you prioritize your game play.
 
Wow third party features made to work in these games not working.
This is what I suspect causes most complaints from people about "drivers"...third party stuff booking stuff (it self or other stuff).

Freestyle is part of the driver suite when you install gfe with it and it’s one of nvidias selling points. Warzone is the biggest BR on the market so not making this a priority fix is unusual.

My point still stands...
