NVIDIA Releases GeForce 591.59 WHQL Game Ready Driver

NVIDIA has released the GeForce Game Ready 591.59 WHQL driver, a relatively small update that focuses more on fixes than on adding features. As usual, NVIDIA says the driver "optimizes the experience" in games using DLSS 4 and NVIDIA Reflex, but does not name any specific new titles. This suggests that the 591.59 WHQL driver is either a general tuning version or a maintenance release rather than a game-specific launch driver. The most notable change addresses a color bug introduced in the previous driver. Users running games or applications at non-native resolutions or aspect ratios could see washed-out or incorrect colors, this issue is now fixed. On the gaming side the driver resolves stability problems in Enshrouded on GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs, fixes a broken HDR toggle in Assassin's Creed Valhalla when Smooth Motion is enabled, and corrects crash issues in Dying Light: The Beast that appeared after updating to driver version 591.44.

NVIDIA has also made a couple of general improvements that are worth mentioning. They've fixed a problem where display colors looked washed out after changing from native resolution, and they've solved an issue that could lead to black screens when RTX HDR was turned on with certain TVs. In general, GeForce 591.59 WHQL driver seems to be a maintenance release that aims to increase stability and correct known issues instead of adding new features. If you've been dealing with color problems or crashes in recent drivers, you'll want to update. However, if you haven't experienced these issues, you might not notice much difference in your everyday use.

NVIDIA Restores PhysX Support for Select 32-Bit Games on GeForce RTX 50-Series GPUs

In early 2025, NVIDIA discontinued support for 32-bit software on its GeForce RTX 50-series "Blackwell" GPUs, which led to the end of PhysX support. However, the company is making exceptions for certain games to ensure they maintain performance and stability. Due to popular demand, the following titles will continue to run smoothly: Alice: Madness Returns, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, Batman: Arkham City, Batman: Arkham Origins, Borderlands 2, Mafia II, Metro 2033, Metro: Last Light, and Mirror's Edge. With the latest GeForce Game Ready 591.44 WHQL driver, these games will be able to fully utilize RTX 50-series performance.

Earlier, the removal of 32-bit support was quietly acknowledged as NVIDIA's latest GeForce RTX 50 series GPUs transition away from 32-bit CUDA software, gradually shifting the gaming industry entirely to 64-bit software. While older NVIDIA GPUs from the Maxwell to Ada generations will continue to support 32-bit CUDA, NVIDIA's earlier update disrupted backward compatibility for physics acceleration in legacy PC games on new GPUs. Users playing these titles on RTX 50 series cards had to rely on CPU-based PhysX processing, which could result in less optimal performance compared to previous GPU generations. Thankfully, performance is now back in check as 32-bit exceptions start rolling in.

USB-C Power Delivery is Fine on RX 7900 XTX, We Tested It, AMD Confirms

Yesterday, we reported that the latest AMD Software Adrenalin 25.10.2 WHQL drivers disable USB-C power delivery on reference Radeon RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT. However, it appears that this was a mistake, and AMD has contacted TechPowerUp to clarify the situation. To make sure that the functionality is back, we tested USB-C power delivery on our own reference card. Readers might remember that the Made by AMD (MBA) reference Radeon RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT graphics cards include USB Type-C ports. These ports support DisplayPort 2.1 passthrough and provide USB power delivery up to the PD 3.0 standard of 30 W.

While the port does not support USB data transfer, it is wired for DisplayPort and power delivery. This theoretically allows you to connect certain monitors that use a single USB-C connection for both display input and power. We tested the feature to make sure it is supplying the port with sufficient power. Using a USB-C power meter, we recorded 27 W of power output from the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX. Impressively, the card can supply full power to the port even without a driver installed, as demonstrated in our test. Installing the latest driver doesn't alter this behavior, indicating that the original driver changelog was just incorrect. To confirm that the 27 W charging is consistent, we charged a laptop with a completely empty battery to full capacity. While charging, we loaded Furmark test, and the load was maintained, proving that the feature works as intended.
AMD's statement follows after the break.

Latest AMD Radeon Drivers Disable USB-C Power Delivery on RX 7900 XTX Reference

Reference-design AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT graphics cards come with USB type-C ports on the cards that offer DisplayPort 2.1 passthrough and USB power delivery up to PD 3.0 standards of 30 W. While the port doesn't push USB data, it has wiring for DisplayPort and power delivery, letting you connect certain kinds of monitors that use a single USB-C connection for both display input and power. AMD just disabled the latter functionality of this port.

The AMD Software Adrenalin 25.10.2 WHQL drivers apparently disable USB power delivery from this port on reference-design RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT graphics cards. The port continues to provide DisplayPort passthrough, but without power delivery, so your USB monitor might need its power brick plugged in, or to use a USB power delivery shunt. Those for whom this is a dealbreaker are recommended by AMD to switch back to AMD drivers as old as 25.3.1 to reliably use USB-PD from this port.
AMD Driver ChangelogUSB-C power charging has been disabled for Radeon RX 7900 series graphics products. Users requiring this feature are recommended to use AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition version 25.3.1.
Update Oct 31st: AMD reached out to us to tell us that the entry in the driver changelog was a mistake. We tested it—USB-C PD works fine on the RX 7900 XTX, even with the newest drivers.

AMD Sneaks Out Fast Motion Response Feature for AFMF 2 in PyTorch Preview Driver

AMD on September 23 released AMD Software PyTorch on Windows Preview Edition 25.20.01.14, which most gamers on the regular WHQL or Beta trunks skipped. Those that did grab the driver and started poking around in the AMD Software application, discovered a feature not found in the gamer-focused regular releases—Fast Motion Response. This feature is a subset of AMD Fluid Motion Frames 2 (AFMF 2), the company's frame generation feature.

In the regular AMD Software driver, such as the latest Adrenalin 25.9.2, AFMF 2 offers two toggles, Search and Performance. The Search toggle prioritizes image-quality and smoothness for high-res displays (1440p and above), while the Performance toggle reduces the software overhead of AFMF on lower-spec hardware, such as mainstream GPUs and iGPUs. The PyTorch Preview driver adds the Fast Motion Response toggle with two options, Repeat Frame mode, and Blended Frame mode. In Repeat Frame mode, there is a brute interpolation of the output by simply repeating the previous frame. In Blended Frame mode, the GPU blends reconstructed frames to the output, which looks fluid in low- to mid-level action scenes, but could cause blur or ghosting in fast action scenes. Grab the PyTorch Preview Driver from here.
