Evaluation: Are new driver updates even price putting in at this level?

Fortunately, my RTX 4080 Tremendous does not require driver updates for performance, not like the brand new Blackwell GPUs. The issue is I am lacking out on necessary assist updates for video games; is it price it to keep away from any annoying bugs, although? The easy reply is sure.

I am nonetheless utilizing Recreation Prepared Driver 572.47 from February, which has been essentially the most steady for me. It got here after I bumped into the infamous black display screen difficulty when putting in a brand new GPU driver and trying to reboot my system, finally pushing me to roll again to 572.47.

You can say I am paranoid or overreacting, however I do not suppose I am improper in saying that warning is warranted with latest Crew Inexperienced updates – and I do know I am going to should take the danger ultimately, however I do not suppose I am going to accomplish that till it is completely essential…
