New Nvidia GeForce hotfix driver addresses crashes and black screen issues
Over the past few weeks, we've been reporting on various driver-related issues affecting Nvidia users. Today, Nvidia released a new hotfix driver aimed at resolving several of these problems, including display flickering, crashing during shader compilation and black screen issues.
New Nvidia drivers improve performance in benchmarks, but crashes and gaming issues remain
Up to 8% better performance in 3DMark Steel Nomad
Recap: Nvidia's RTX 50 series has arguably been another forgettable and disappointing GPU launch in recent memory. Issues with the new graphics cards include underwhelming gen-to-gen performance improvements, melting power cables, stingy VRAM allocation, near-nonexistent launch inventory, missing ROPs, and software stability problems. While Nvidia has attempted to address bugs and crashes with recent driver updates, user complaints appear to persist.
Nvidia GeForce GPU driver update tackles black screens, crashes, and display issues
GeForce Game Ready 576.02 WHQL drivers appear to be one of the most substantial updates of the year. Key improvements include solutions for black screen issues – especially when waking PCs from sleep – enhanced support for Windows 11 24H2, and multiple game-specific fixes related to G-Sync and DLSS.

Intel Stability Issues - The Story So Far
Intel's CPU stability issues persist, with a microcode update expected in a few weeks. While TechSpot has covered various angles, hands-on testing remains pending, here's our take so far.
Intel's crashing CPU crisis deepens as more models are affected than originally thought
The issue extends beyond enthusiast chips, hinting at a more complex root cause
A hot potato: Intel probably thought the worst was behind them after the company identified the source of the instability surrounding its 13th- and 14th-gen CPUs and promised a patch to address the issue. But new reports say that the patch won't resolve the problems for processors already experiencing crashes. Even worse, whatever the problem is, it affects a broader range of models than previously assumed.

Intel CPUs Are Crashing and It's Intel's Fault: Intel Baseline Profile Benchmark
For years, we have highlighted Intel's loosely defined CPU power specs and the problems they pose for customers. The issue now is that some 13th and 14th-gen processors have started crashing.
Gigabyte and MSI also provide BIOS settings to address Intel crashing CPUs
The updates and settings are designed to curb the chips' stability issues
In context: Reviewers, CPU owners, and engineers have for the last several months endured stability issues related to several Intel 13th- and 14th-gen processors. Further investigation attributed the issues to the BIOS settings used by many Intel motherboard partners, which use "optimized" settings ignoring Intel's default maximum power limits. This week, Gigabyte and MSI joined Asus in providing additional BIOS versions and configurations aimed at alleviating these issues and adhering to Intel's power specifications.
