Like I said before I actually love this bug as it has flat-lined my voltage/clock curve by completely disabling the auto-throttling feature.
It has improved my stability, not made it worse. It's like how things were pre-10 series.
I understand how it could be an issue for normies though (re: overheating GPUs).
edit: Worth mentioning his clocks went from 2400 to 2900 in Furmark.

Its an issue for everyone who relies on overriding fan curves for OC for cooling and also to lower noise levels. JayzTwoCents mentioned in a video about those that have GPUs in a waterloop.
In my case, its an issue if I were to install it on my gaming laptop. Though decent cooling (Lenovo Legion Pro) for a laptop, I still need it to have acceptable noise levels and I need to have access to sleep modes. This driver is worthless for me until that bug is fixed.
And no, I am not a normie and this bug affects many enthusiasts

You know what's funny, people are going to use 572.06 to "cheat" in 3dmark forever.

they can just flag that driver as invalid.
I hope this black screens while I'm installing it so as not to deprive me of the experience I've come to know and love

So far this driver (576.15) fixed all the issues I was having including the white flashing on my desktop when HDR was enabled.

These hotfix drivers are the first ones in months that didn't leave me with a blank screen after install. Pretty much every driver install this year has required me to hard reset my machine. No amount of swapping inputs, toggling HDR, plugging/unplugging would bring it back - powering it off was the only way. Sometimes I even had to reinstall. That's on a 4090. Random occasional flashing textures in Dragon Age Veilguard also seem to be gone. Hopefully they're starting to get a handle on these things. My issues have been minor compared to some, but that's after years of bulletproof drivers.
I havent had any issues with any of my 5090s, 4090s or 3090s that are driver-related this year at all. I'm wondering what's going on when so many people have problems and I have none. I just installed 572.06 last night haven't played any games yet but I didnt have issues during driver install either.
Same - just installed and didn't black screen for me either, I have a 5090
Maybe this is a good one
Also noticed the NVidia installer was in disagreement with the NVidia app about what version was installed

This might be 5000 series only affected by temperature sensor issue. I am running 4090 and Afterburner shows correct temps.That comes at a cost it seems. Unwinder (creator of MSI Afterburner) posted about this on reddit:

I am staying clear of those drivers, since it would be on a "4070" laptop I also use for work. Dont want to cook it.
I never saw it with my 3 50 series cards. I think you have to use sleep which most enthusiasts don’t use lol.

new hotfix 576.15 are quite a bit slower than the latest WHQL for me
Dang after 3 nights of stable gaming - got a Fortnite crash with this driver. It’s far more stable but I would not say this is “fixed” - RTX 5080.
It’s crazy - I can’t ever recall a single crash across all my cards in the 40 series with Fortnite.

try the new one
Definitely will now! Didn’t want to mess with anything when I was crash less - but now that I’ve been messed with it’s on. Heh
I think most of the performance gains people reported were due to the boost algorithm working more aggressively due to to wrongly reported "low" temps. So yeah with sensors working properly you'll have lower performance.

My boost algorithm and sensors worked as advertised. It was boosting higher because of lower power consumption (thereby lower heat at same boost). This is same thing I have noticed in games as well.

Yup. Twice. Same thing. As soon as the (fresh) Nvidia driver install got to the point where the new display driver was installed, black screen that couldn't seem to ever "wake up." Had to power it off/hit reset each time. It started in January and this latest hotfix is the first time it hasn't happened.

Nvidia’s GPU drivers are a mess
A series of new drivers and hotfixes keep introducing issues for Nvidia GPU ownershttps://www.theverge.com/news/653115/nvidia-gpu-drivers-black-screen-crashes-issues

Yeah looks like there was some sensor issues with the last patch which is why the hotfix was sent out.
Boy, Nvidia just cant catch a break when it comes to their drivers. Its been what 4 months now with bad 5000 series drivers. Nvidia should take some of those billions they have on cash and make a good GPU driver department!
Yeah. I think the general sentiment is those engineers are working on AI stuff and not gaming stuff. We get the cowboy interns.

Anyone else have their performance in Stalker 2 completely borked after installing 576.15? Holy moly.
