NVIDIA has released GeForce Hotfix Display Driver version 595.76 to address critical issues affecting RTX 50-series 'Blackwell' GPUs. The update resolves a voltage cap problem that prevented overclocked graphics cards from reaching expected frequency levels, causing performance degradation under load. This fix follows the March 3 release of the 595.71 WHQL driver, which itself was meant to correct issues from the earlier 595.59 build.

Beyond the voltage fix, the hotfix tackles several game-specific problems. It eliminates white glowing artifacts in Resident Evil Requiem when Subsurface Scattering is enabled and improves path tracing performance. The update also resolves launch crashes in Star Citizen and corrects intermittent application crashes when playing multi-key DRM content in browsers on HDCP 1.x monitors.

The 595.76 hotfix is distributed through NVIDIA's Customer Care support site as a beta, optional driver with a shortened QA cycle. It will be pulled once fixes are incorporated into the next official WHQL-certified release. Users seeking maximum stability may prefer to wait for that broader driver update, though those experiencing these specific issues can download the hotfix immediately.
