StefanG3D Posted May 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2023 Unofficial comment from NVIDIA: https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/135l80f/comment/jklm9ul/ Will keep this unofficial comment updated like I did with previous driver. EDITs section in footer can be used to track additions/updates. Notes Solidworks Models may not render properly when "Enhanced Graphics Performance" is enabled from the application settings. Not a driver issue but a driver workaround is planned LiveKernelEvent 193 error with MKV videos is a Windows DWM bug, not a driver bug Recent Windows security update resulting in 'Kernel-mode Hardware-enforced Stack Protection' causing crashing/framerate issues with numerous games and applications Nvidia Gamestream is no longer officially supported Security Bulletin issues updated by Nvidia on 30th March 2023 are addressed by 531.41 and later - https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5452 Workarounds DPC Latency spikes with Series 30 and Series 40 GPUs potential workaround(s). Enable Message Signaled Interrupts (MSI / MSI-X) for the Nvidia HDMI and GPU instances, disable both 'PEG - ASPM' / 'PCI Express Clock Gating' and adjust other related features (credit Astyanax) if supported in the motherboard BIOS. Disabling Hardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling (HAGS) may help on some systems but impacts DLLS Frame Generation feature. Setting Nvidia's 'Power Management Mode' to 'Prefer Maximum Performance' in the Nvidia Control Panel for each application/game impacted OR forcing higher VRAM clocks for P8 State may mitigate the issue. Display blinking, try setting 'Content Type Detection' in 'Nvidia Control Panel > Display > Adjust Desktop Color Settings' to 'Desktop Programs' if setting is available NVLDDMKM / TDR issues, if troubleshooting (RAM/CPU/GPU overclocks, using Nvidia Debug Mode, voltage, memory timings, PSU, toggling Hardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling setting, disabling hibernation/fast startup etc) hasn't helped try driver 512.95, 517.48, 516.94, 522.25, 526.86, 528.49 OR recent developer drivers based on r526_25-xx (no VSR) branch such as 531.98 Branch Information 535.50: r535_00-73 (Insider Build) 531.98: VK526_25- (Developer) 531.83: VK526_25-28 (Developer) 531.79: r530_00-178 (Game Ready) 531.68: r531_66-2 (Game Ready) 531.61: r530_00-155 (Game Ready/Studio) 531.58: r531_37-5 (Hotfix) 531.41: r531_37-2 (Game Ready/Quadro/Studio) 531.29: r530_99-18 (Game Ready) 531.18: r530_99-13 (Game Ready) 528.49: r528_37-5 (Game Ready/Studio) 528.24: r528_10-7 (Game Ready/Quadro/Studio) 528.02: r527_92-2 (Game Ready/Studio) Confirmed Additional Issues This section covers issues officially acknowledged by Nvidia that are not in the original driver release notes [GeForce RTX Series 40] graphics cards running older firmware could experience blank screens on boot with certain motherboards in UEFI mode until the OS loads - https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5411/ [Halo Wars 2] In-game foliage is larger than normal and displays constant flickering [3888343] [OCCT VRAM Test] event viewer logs nvlddmkm error at the end of the OCCT video ram test when memory is full [4049182] [Surface Book/Surface Studio] dedicated GPU stuck at lowest clock speed when notebook is running off of battery [4063597] [Chromium based applications] small checkerboard like pattern may randomly appear [3992875] [GeForce RTX Series 40 laptops/notebooks] after updating to R530 drivers, certain models may randomly experience a TDR/black screen [4024853] [Display Stream Compression (DSC)] some monitors may display random black screen flicker when using R530 drivers with DSC enabled [4034096] [Asus VG27WQ][Acer XV253Q] Highest monitor refresh rate is missing from the NVIDIA Control Panel after updating to NVIDIA display driver 531.41 or later [Control][DX12] Cut scenes and videos show tearing and partial jitter [4084000] [NVIDIA System Tray] in certain languages, the NVIDIA Control Panel option is missing when right-clicking over the NVIDIA system tray icon [4019721] [Microsoft Flight Simulator] Game may randomly crash when playing in DX12 mode after updating to driver 531.41 or later [4051526] [Fast Sync] caps the game FPS to the monitors maximum refresh rate [4114157] Unconfirmed Additional Issues This section contains issues not officially acknowledged by Nvidia but are reported across multiple forums: [GeForce RTX Series 40 GPUs] stability/TDR/black screen issues. Check for a motherboard BIOS update that states 'compatibility updates for Lovelace'. The motherboard update is in addition to any VBIOS update. Nvidia control panel setting 'Prefer Maximum Performance' may mitigate idle/monitor resume/crashing issues (workaround) [HDMI Audio, Series 30 and Series 40 GPUs] audio may drop out on Sony Bravia TVs. Potential workaround enabling VRR mode and/or lowering display depth/refresh rate may help mitigate issue. This issue isn't present when using HDMI 2.x capable AMD / Intel discrete GPUs. UPDATE: Nvidia are working with SONY to resolve the issue [Microsoft Store/GamePass/Xbox Application] PC games may not have Nvidia 'game ready driver profile' settings applied due to the APPID not being present in the Nvidia game profile. Workaround: manually add the APPID to the Nvidia driver game profile using Nvidia Profile Inspector or similar tool. Please submit a report to Nvidia for games that have this issue [Multiple Display] systems with three or more active displays (in mixed portrait modes?) may show very high GPU idle power usage with GSync enabled OR may crash with BSOD/bugcheck code on Windows startup/changing monitor modes (WINKEY + P) [EA Desktop] app driver profile incorrectly referencing PC Playstation Plus/Now executables (qtwebengineprocess.exe, psnowlauncher.exe, agl.exe, unidater.exe) [LG C2 Display] 120Hz/8bit/10bit/12bit HDMI handshake issues or screen artifacts when resuming from standby For any issues not officially acknowledged by Nvidia please submit a report using the official form. General guidance in provide valuable feedback document. Display issue guidance in collecting logs for display issues Resizable Bar (ReBAR) Support No ReBAR additions / changes since the previous driver 25 unique profiles out of 6705 profiles in the driver have official ReBAR support enabled, however restrictions apply based on CPU platform: Intel CPU based platforms have ReBAR disabled for F1 2021, F1 2022, Hitman 3 and Horizon Zero Dawn AMD CPU based platforms have ReBAR disabled for Dead Space (Remake) and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2022) - thanks /u/Kusel for testing new 0x00000101 ReBAR Option flag NIS (Nvidia Image Scaling) This driver still has an 8% to 10% performance penalty with NIS on Pascal and Maxwell based GPUs when compared to a custom resolution, older scaling or Turing/Ampere/Lovelace GPUs. Workaround is available that forces the older scaling and sharpening on Maxwell and Pascal based cards: https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/tkca3g/game_ready_studio_driver_51215_faqdiscussion/i1sod9e/ See comment by /u/thrwway377 regarding undocumented changes to NIS allowing it to be enabled on a per-app basis in driver 526.47 and above Benchmarks and Analysis Lovelace series 40 GPU Benchmarks and Analysis /u/lokkenjp benchmarks and analysis at TBC /u/RodroG benchmarks and analysis at TBC Ampere series 30 GPU Benchmarks and Analysis /u/RodroG benchmarks and analysis at TBC /u/ThatLonelyGamer01 benchmarks and analysis at https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/135l80f/game_ready_driver_53179_faqdiscussion/jimcddj/ EDITs 01: tested 'NIS (Nvidia Image Scaling)' on Pascal / Maxwell GPUs 02: added to confirmed 'Series 40 GPUs in certain motherboards that are in UEFI mode' issue 03: added to unconfirmed 'Series 40 GPUs stability issues' including potential fix 04: added to unconfirmed 'Microsoft Store/GamePass/Xbox Application PC games' issue 05: updated to unconfirmed 'multiple display systems, idle GPU usage and BSOD' issue 06: added to unconfirmed 'Solidworks render' issue 07: added to confirmed 'OCCT VRAM Test, Halo Wars 2, Surface Book/Surface Studio, Chromium based applications, GeForce RTX 40 series notebooks' issues 08: updated branch information 09: updated ReBAR profile changes / count 10: updated ReBAR with AMD CPU platform information about new 0x00000101 setting 11: added to unconfirmed 'EA Desktop profile conflict' issue 12: added to confirmed 'Microsoft Flight Simulator DX12 random crash' issue 13: updated 'workarounds' section 14: add to unconfirmed 'LG C2 Display resuming from standby' issues 15: added updated branch information with 531.98 (Developer) 16: moved to notes 'Solidworks render' issue 17: added to confirmed 'Fast Sync' issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
