Tras una semana muy intensa en cuanto a novedades gráficas parece que los problemas con las GeForce RTX 50 siguen ahí y NVIDIA aún debe atar algunos cabos sueltos, así pues a pesar de tener nuevos controladores oficiales este pasado miércoles, el fabricante se ha visto obligado a publicar una nueva versión beta para solventar algunos problemas pendientes.
En el caso de NVIDIA al fabricante le gusta llamarlos hotfix y hoy vemos que han publicado los controladores GeForce Hotfix Driver Version 572.75 disponibles en este enlace.
Para instalar los controladores hotfix se puede seguir recurriendo a la herramienta NVCleanstall que siempre recomendamos, pero al contrario que con los controladores oficiales dicha herramienta no los detecta y descarga, por lo que si nos sigue interesando primero hay que descargarlos manualmente y luego instalarlos eligiendo la ruta de nuestra unidad de almacenamiento desde dicha herramienta.
El listado de cambios oficial dice corregir los siguientes errores:
- Las GeForce RTX 5080 y RTX 5090 no funcionan a la velocidad máxima tras reiniciar el equipo si están overclockeadas [5088034]
- Las GeForce RTX 50 se siguen colgando con pantallazos en negro [5120886]
Sobre controladores hotfix NVIDIA sigue diciendo lo siguiente:
A GeForce driver is an incredibly complex piece of software, We have an army of software engineers constantly adding features and fixing bugs. These changes are checked into the main driver branches, which are eventually run through a massive QA process and released. Since we have so many changes being checked in, we usually try to align driver releases with significant game or product releases. This process has served us pretty well over the years but it has one significant weakness. Sometimes a change that is important to many users might end up sitting and waiting until we are able to release the driver. The GeForce Hotfix driver is our way to trying to get some of these fixes out to you more quickly. These drivers are basically the same as the previous released version, with a small number of additional targeted fixes. The fixes that make it in are based in part on your feedback in the Driver Feedback threads and partly on how realistic it is for us to quickly address them. These fixes (and many more) will be incorporated into the next official driver release, at which time the Hotfix driver will be taken down. To be sure, these Hotfix drivers are beta, optional and provided as-is. They are run through a much abbreviated QA process. The sole reason they exist is to get fixes out to you more quickly. The safest option is to wait for the next WHQL certified driver. But we know that many of you are willing to try these out. As a result, we only provide NVIDIA Hotfix drivers through our NVIDIA Customer Care support site.
Puesto que estamos ante una versión beta de unos controladores lo más lógico es estar atentos si sufrimos alguno de los problemas mencionados y si no es así esperar a una versión estable y WHQL del fabricante.
