NVIDIA has released a new driver for its graphics cards. According to the release notes, the NVIDIA GeForce 595.97 WHQL driver fixes a couple of issues that were present in the previous driver. So, let’s take a closer look at it.
The NVIDIA GeForce 595.97 WHQL driver fixes some texture corruption issues that could occur in Halo: Infinite. It improves stability in HITMAN World of Assassination when using NVIDIA Smooth Motion. Plus, it brings general stability improvements to games after enabling DLSS FG when using Instant Replay. As such, the games will no longer crash when you enable DLSS Frame Gen.
From what I can see, this new driver does not add support for any future title. NVIDIA claims that the driver optimizes your experience in the latest titles featuring DLSS, ray tracing, path tracing, and NVIDIA Reflex. However, it did not list any new game that greatly benefits from them.
What I’m saying is that if you don’t play the games above, you can skip this driver. Yes, it’s good to always have the latest driver. However, as they say, don’t try to fix it if it ain’t broken.
Anyway, those interested can go ahead and download the NVIDIA GeForce 595.97 WHQL driver from this link. Below, you can also find its full release notes.
Stay tuned for more!
