NVIDIA’s recent attempt to address the pesky black screen problem with its RTX 50 GPUs seems to have taken a turn for the worse. The latest driver update, which aimed to resolve crashing issues especially associated with the DisplayPort connection and BIOS, has instead left users grappling with even more frustrating crashes.
Gamers are at their wits’ end with reports flooding in about the new Game Ready 572.60 driver causing widespread problems. A major complaint is that games supporting Multi-Frame Generation (MFG) are experiencing black screen crashes that force computers to restart when these features are used. Even after applying the 572.65 hotfix, users continue to face the same issues. This suggests that the latest driver release hasn’t provided the solution NVIDIA intended.
The compatibility woes aren’t exclusive to MFG-supported titles—they’re just more frequent with them. This ongoing issue has left gamers scratching their heads, with some assuming hardware overheating might be to blame, only to find temperature readings within a safe range.
For those still encountering crashes post-upgrade, sharing detailed experiences can help surface the depth of the problem and prompt NVIDIA to respond with urgency. Meanwhile, a growing number are opting to revert to previous driver versions, citing fewer crashes as a result.
With speculation strong around the upcoming launch of AMD’s RX 9070 series, NVIDIA’s current struggles could see them ceding ground in the competitive GPU market space. Until Team Green can address these pressing concerns, AMD may enjoy the upper hand amongst gamers seeking seamless performance.
As the situation develops, staying informed and cautious with driver updates will be key for those looking to maintain an uninterrupted gaming experience.
