Must be a WIN11 thing?
WIN10, 3090, just updated to 572.16 2 nights ago mainly because it had POE2 updates in it.
No change or improvement to FPS but no crashes either.

As others have said.. as i haven't had a single issue either, i use a strix 4080 and i didnt even need the update as i never dropped frames to start with, but having dlss 4 much more improved is an excellent update which all nvidia users with benefit from.

I read a bunch of those posts, and I am so glad I didn't update yet. It sounds terrible.

My problem with these drivers my temperatures went up 10 degrees Celsius for no reason on my RTX 3070 Ti with ramping and unramping fan speeds; rolled back to my 566.36 drivers and all is cooler and quiet.

Anyone else ?

You mean zero problems for most people. Y'all got something else going on.

i came into the game on vulkan and on latest nvidia drivers. On 3060 with 4 k screen and my frame rate was over 100fps. when the game was put out it was 70.. I do not know what you are doing wrong. It give me the impression the drive is corrupted. I run window pro..
Windows Update recently was terrible too, did anyone grab that? https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows11/comments/1i91umd/windows_11_24h2_is_a_completely_broken_update/ Combined with a Bad Driver that could spell disaster until you rollback or reinstall, etc. ( or till they fix it lol ) The update screwed a bunch of stuff on my PC. Took 3 days of screwing with settings to get it back to decent standards.

never update your GPU drivers if you find a stable one, it's a marketing gimmick so they can track usage through their apps, obv don't have to install them but enough people will
