NVIDIA rende disponibili i nuovi driver GeForce Hotfix 551.46

NVIDIA, nei giorni scorsi, ha reso disponibili i nuovi driver GeForce Hotfix 551.46, in grado di apportare ben quattro correzioni di bug principalmente legati ai problemi di stuttering. Un primo problema risolto è quello che causava micro-stuttering ad intermittenza, in alcuni giochi, una volta abilitato il V-Sync.

Non è sicuro se tale problema riguardasse il V-Sync del driver, il Fast Sync, il V-Sync in-game o tutti loro, ma basandoci sulle parole dell’azienda stessa sembra che influisca su tutte le forme di V-Sync.

Gli altri tre problemi risolti includono problemi di stuttering durante lo scrolling del browser web su determinate configurazioni di sistema, uno stuttering osservato sui laptop Optimus avanzati in Red Dead Redemption 2 e un problema di stabilità in Immortals of Aveum.

Per concludere, NVIDIA con questi nuovi driver Hotfix 551.46, ha aggiunto il supporto alle recenti schede video RTX 4080 Super.

GeForce Hotfix display driver version 551.46 is based on our latest Game Ready Driver 551.23. This hotfix addresses the following issues:

Some users may experience intermittent micro-stuttering in games when vertical sync is enabled [4445940]
Potential stutter may be observed when scrolling in web browsers on certain system configurations [4362307]
[Red Dead Redemption 2][Vulkan] Stutter observed on some Advanced Optimus notebooks [4425987]
[Immortals of Aveum] Addresses stability issues over extended gameplay [4415277]

A GeForce driver is an incredibly complex piece of software, We have an army of software engineers constantly adding features and fixing bugs. These changes are checked into the main driver branches, which are eventually run through a massive QA process and released.
Since we have so many changes being checked in, we usually try to align driver releases with significant game or product releases. This process has served us pretty well over the years but it has one significant weakness. Sometimes a change that is important to many users might end up sitting and waiting until we are able to release the driver.

The GeForce Hotfix driver is our way to trying to get some of these fixes out to you more quickly. These drivers are basically the same as the previous released version, with a small number of additional targeted fixes. The fixes that make it in are based in part on your feedback in the Driver Feedback threads and partly on how realistic it is for us to quickly address them. These fixes (and many more) will be incorporated into the next official driver release, at which time the Hotfix driver will be taken down.

To be sure, these Hotfix drivers are beta, optional and provided as-is. They are run through a much abbreviated QA process. The sole reason they exist is to get fixes out to you more quickly. The safest option is to wait for the next WHQL certified driver. But we know that many of you are willing to try these out. As a result, we only provide NVIDIA Hotfix drivers through our NVIDIA Customer Care support site.

Concludiamo col dirvi che ci troviamo di fronte a dei driver beta, pertanto potrebbero non essere del tutto stabili. Se non riscontrate i problemi sopra citati, vale la pena che aspettante i nuovi driver ufficiali da parte dell’azienda.
