Overview

  • NVIDIA's RTX 50 Series GPUs have faced significant issues since their launch, including black screen crashes and overclocking performance degradation.
  • The newly released Hotfix Driver 572.75 aims to resolve two key problems: black screen crashes and overclocked GPUs not running at full speeds after a system reboot.
  • This hotfix builds on the previous Game Ready Driver 572.70 and addresses issues reported by users and identified internally by NVIDIA.
  • Hotfix drivers are optional beta updates designed for quicker issue resolution but undergo a less rigorous QA process compared to standard driver releases.
  • The fixes included in Hotfix Driver 572.75 will be incorporated into the next official Game Ready Driver release for broader availability.
