NVIDIA GeForce 576.40 WHQL Drivers Released
NVIDIA today released the latest version of its GeForce Game Ready drivers. These drivers come with optimization for "DOOM: The Dark Ages," and "New World: Aeternum." The drivers also add G-SYNC support for almost a dozen new monitor models, listed below. There is a rather short list of game-specific bug fixes with this release. To begin with, the drivers address random stability issues with "Monster Hunter Wilds." Also addressed is an issue specific to the RTX 50-series "Blackwell" GPUs, where in "Dead Space Remake," the shadows exhibit a random flicker.
Among the general issues fixed with this release is incorrect color saturation observed on RTX 50-series GPUs when the game is being rendered at a resolution lower than the display's native resolution. Another bug specific to the combination of RTX 50-series GPUs with ASUS PG32UQXR/ASUS ROG PG248QP/ASUS ROG PG32UCDM displays that causes these displays to boot to a black screen, has been fixed. A bug that causes certain LG TVs to exhibit a stutter at lower refresh rates with G-SYNC enabled, has been fixed. Grab the drivers from the link below.

btw, i just install the latest nvidia driver, before this suddnely coming in here..... what happen, nvidia ??
This assumes you aren't playing any games that have been launched since December 2024. Using the December 2024 driver is worth a shot anyhow since playing a game with unoptimized settings might be better than running a driver that crashes. Your call.
Feel free to use DDU liberally and switch between the two to determine which driver works best for the specific software (plural) you are running. The answer will not be the same for everyone.
Best of luck.
to make it clear, im not talking about using a previous driver, but a rollback without uninstall/cleaning.
unless you have any insight of (Nv) drivers and rollback, and can sfate it is never an issue, just because it "works", doesnt mean its a good idea. too many ppl without troubleshooting knowledge might end up here after a websearch, and are unable to remedy if it goes south.
@cvaldes
i remember having micro stutter in some thins prior to 57x.xx, and certain sfutter/sync issues were fixed by Nv, but it might have been something else.
since im now on a fresh install and 2nd newest working, i might image os and try the other one again
