NVIDIA has released a new driver for its graphics. According to the green team, the NVIDIA GeForce Game Ready 576.02 WHQL driver adds official support for the RTX 5060Ti GPU. Moreover, it adds support for 19 new G-SYNC Compatible displays. Oh, and it also fixes one hell of bugs and issues. As such, it’s a must for all NVIDIA users.

Going into more details, the NVIDIA GeForce Game Ready 576.02 WHQL driver fixes some random crashes that could occur in Fortnite. It also resolves the “DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED” crash that players were receiving in The First Berserker: Khazan.

Star Wars Outlaws will no longer freeze after leaving the game idle for 5+ minutes. Moreover, NVIDIA fixed the visual artifacts that could occur in UNCHARTED: Legacy of Thieves Collection when collecting treasures. Plus, CONTROL will not suffer from flickering corruption issues in multiple areas.

And that’s not all. This new driver fixes a crash that could occur in Hellblade 2 and The Last of Us Part 1 when using Smooth Motion. It also fixes the dithering/banding that could occur in some games on the RTX 50-series GPUs.

A lot of users will also be happy to know that this driver fixes some stuttering issues that could occur when using VSYNC. Moreover, it fixes the issues that could occur in DLSS 4 games when using VSYNC in NVCP + frame generation. Not only that, but games with DLSS Frame Generation and GSYNC will be more stable than before. Oh, and the driver improves stability in Windows 11 24H2.

NVIDIA also claims that this driver fixes the black screen issues that RTX50 series owners were experiencing. Thus, you will no longer get a black screen when installing the drivers or booting into Windows. Sadly, I was not suffering from these issues. As such, I can’t comment on whether these black screen issues have been fully fixed.

In short, this is a must-have driver for pretty much all NVIDIA users. This isn’t a minor driver that just adds support for the RTX 5060Ti GPU. Instead, it addresses numerous issues that plagued a lot of users.

You can go ahead and download the driver from this link. You can also find below its complete changelog.

Enjoy!
