Mere hours after releasing their newest GeForce Game Ready GPU driver, 595.59 WHQL, Nvidia have recalled it, amid widespread reports of the update interfering with the cooling fans, core clock speeds, and even general game performance of users’ RTX graphics cards.
The driver’s announcement post, which still boasts of readying PCs for today’s Resident Evil Requiem launch, now carries an added warning: “We have discovered a bug in the Game Ready and Studio 595.59 WHQL drivers and have removed the downloads temporarily while our team investigates. For users that have already installed this driver and are experiencing issues with fan control, please roll back to 591.86 WHQL.”
It’s always a bit surprising when a major update encounters issues right after release. It’s good to see Nvidia being proactive in addressing these problems. Hopefully, they’ll resolve the issues quickly for users affected.
