TECH NEWS – It’s starting to look uncomfortably routine for Nvidia: a fresh driver drops, reports of major bugs pile up fast, and the rollback advice shows up almost immediately afterward.
Nvidia has pulled its latest GPU driver update after the company discovered a bug that has been affecting multiple users. The consumer GPU side has already been under pressure lately amid ongoing memory constraints, and now the company has managed to stumble again on the software front.
The newly released 595.59 GeForce Game Ready Driver was positioned around optimizing Resident Evil Requiem, including support for DLSS 4 MFG and DLSS Ray Reconstruction. But once players installed it, Nvidia’s public forums were quickly flooded with complaints describing several separate issues.
“We discovered a bug in the Game Ready and Studio 595.59 WHQL drivers, so we have temporarily removed the downloads 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.”
After the update went live, users began reporting black screens and crashes on Blackwell GPUs, specifically the GeForce RTX 5000 series. Instability across multiple games was repeatedly mentioned, and forum users said they were not finding a consistent fix. Overheating, crashes, and black screens were cited as the most common 595.59 problems, with dozens of complaints arguing the driver was pushed out too quickly.
Other reports focused on fan control behavior: some users said their fans were not working correctly at all, while others claimed custom curves and configurations were ineffective. Players also described voltage drops, performance degradation, and additional instability symptoms, suggesting the release may involve more than a single isolated bug. One forum take framed the situation as a “rush-first” release that effectively skipped traditional QA, though that characterization remains user opinion rather than an official explanation.
For now, Nvidia is recommending a rollback to 591.86 WHQL for anyone running into problems.
