NVIDIA recently tried to tackle the persistent black screen problem plaguing RTX 50 GPU users with a new driver update, but unfortunately, the update seems to have backfired for some gamers, making the issue even worse.
It appears that Team Green is hitting some bumps in the road with the launch of their RTX 50 Blackwell GPUs. One of the significant complaints from users involved frequent crashes and black screens during gameplay. In response, NVIDIA rolled out the Game Ready 572.60 driver, which was supposed to address issues related to the DisplayPort connection and BIOS. However, as noted by @mpr_reviews on social media, this update has seemingly exacerbated the situation. Games that support Multi-Frame Generation (MFG) are now crashing more frequently.
A tweet from @mpr_reviews details their experience: “Using the latest Nvidia driver 572.60 causes every game that supports multi-frame generation to black screen crash and restart my PC on the RTX 5080 when MFG 3x or 4x is used. Either at game startup or when exiting the game. The latest 572.65 hotfix driver also exhibits the same…”
Despite applying the 572.65 “hotfix,” users are still facing persistent crashes, especially with MFG-supported titles. Although widespread reporting on these crashes hasn’t surfaced yet, early feedback is raising red flags. The crux of the problem might relate to how MFG integrates with RTX 50 Blackwell GPUs, but we lack full clarity at this point.
Another user, Timebringer, shared their experience: “It happened to me today playing Death Stranding on my 5080 with DLSS and frame gen turned off, it was weird. It didn’t happen in any driver and I thought it could be an overheating, but I was monitoring the temps and both CPU and GPU was below 65. Gonna rollback the driver.”
For those still encountering issues after the update, please reach out and share your experiences. This will help us communicate with NVIDIA for further assistance. Many, like @mpr_reviews, have decided to revert to the previous driver version, noting that crashes were less frequent beforehand. This situation is still developing, and more evidence is needed to pinpoint the root cause.
With AMD’s RX 9070 series just around the corner, NVIDIA’s current issues with the RTX 50 GPUs might give their competitor an advantage in the mainstream GPU market unless there’s a swift resolution.
