Nvidia Promises to Investigate Incidents of GeForce RTX 50 Graphics Card Failures

A number of users complain about black screens or complete inoperability of new cards. Some blame the driver, others - problems with PCIe 5.0. It is important that Nvidia has already started an investigation. According to one version, the problem is related to the Nvidia GeForce Game Ready 572.16 WHQL drivers. This hypothesis is confirmed by the fact that the latest update has also started to receive complaints from owners of Nvidia GeForce RTX 40 series video cards. In cases where the problem is really related to the drivers, it can be solved by completely removing the package using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) and then reinstalling. The problem is complicated by the fact that the symptoms of failures reported by users vary, and they manifest themselves in different models of vi...

One of the exclusive features of the GeForce RTX 50 series of video cards introduced in January is support for multi-frame generation or Multi Frame Generation.

Nvidia App Caught Slowing Down Video Cards

Gaming

The replacement for GeForce Experience, called NVIDIA App, still needs some work, according to reviews. Gamers complain that the NVIDIA App, which will replace GeForce Experience in November 2024, can significantly affect gaming performance. Users are prompted to install the Nvidia App the first time they launch GeForce Experience after downloading the GeForce Game Ready Driver 566.14 package, which began rolling out last month. Users can choose not to download the software, but it's important to understand that there will be no new versions of GeForce Experience going forward. With the release of driver 566.36, Nvidia has completely removed GeForce Experience, leaving only the Nvidia App. So users will have to install the app or opt out of the additional features it offers and insta...
