NVIDIA Releases GeForce 580.88 WHQL Game Ready Drivers
NVIDIA has released the newest version of its GeForce graphics driver, the GeForce 580.88 WHQL, which comes with Game Ready optimizations for Mafia: The Old Country, which includes DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, DLSS Frame Generation, DLSS Super Resolution, and NVIDIA Reflex support. The new driver also adds DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation support for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. NVIDIA also added support for 62 new G-SYNC Compatible gaming displays. The new driver also fixes some gaming and general bugs.
According to the release notes, the NVIDIA GeForce 580.88 WHQL driver fixes issues in Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered, World of Warcraft, Starcraft Remastered and several other games, including issues with Battlefield 2042, which experienced random squares and flickering artifacts and micro-stutter issues when VSYNC is enabled in Cyberpunk 2077. It also fixes issues in Blender and Cloudflare WARP, issues with GPU video memory after enabling NVIDIA Smooth Motion, and an issue where the GPU scaling option is missing from NVIDIA Control Panel/NVIDIA App when a DSC monitor is connected. The driver also fixes flickering issues during window resize with the Samsung 57-inch Odyssey Neo G9 and blank screen issues in DisplayPort 2.1 mode with HDR on the LGE 27GX790A-B. NVIDIA also announced it will continue supporting Maxwell, Pascal, and Volta GPUs with Game Ready drivers until October 2025, after which these will get quarterly security updates for the next three years. NVIDIA is also extending Windows 10 Game Ready Driver support for all GeForce RTX GPUs to October 2026

14 Comments on NVIDIA Releases GeForce 580.88 WHQL Game Ready Drivers
On the rtx 4000 was perfectly fine doing 115fps cap on my 120hz monitor.
For 99+% of my screens it wasn't needed so it really doesn't matter to me how the photo mode works.
Thats not saying that they shouldn't fix the issue but its hardly a game breaking problem imo.
Checking AMD Driver page shows me that Chipsets > Laptop Chipsets > AMD Ryzen and Athlon Mobile (Chipset) has the newest chipset driver package that was released 13.06.2025 for both Win10 and Win11. www.amd.com/en/support/download/drivers.html
All Ryzen AI and AI Max CPU's have Win10 support listed in driver downloads.
Ryzen 9000 mobile includes only 3 chips: 9850HX, 9955HX and 9955HX3D. I cant find them in the driver downloads section either trough search or browse.
9000 series drivers only lists desktop 9000 series.
Searching laptops with these chips, for example MSI Raider A18 HX A9WIG-080 shows indeed in it's data sheet that only Win11 is supported.
I have mine set at 97fps, and all is good.
