NVIDIA has pushed the latest drivers to get players ready for Pragmata, the latest third-person action game from Capcom which is set to release tomorrow, April 17, 2026. The new drivers help players with all tiers of NVIDIA gear, though anyone sporting the latest RTX 50 Series graphics cards will undoubtedly have the best experience as they can take full advantage of the game's support of DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation and DLSS Ray Reconstruction. With path-tracing and DLSS 4 both on, players with that high-end hardware can hit upwards of 200 FPS according to NVIDIA. It's also worth […]

NVIDIA CEO Reveals How The Company Survived an “Existential Threat” After Forcing CUDA On Gaming GPUs; Now, It’s Their Biggest Moat

31 March 2026 at 19:33

NVIDIA's CEO Expresses His Gratitude To GeForce Being the Driving Force Behind CUDA It's actually astonishing to see how vital a resource CUDA has become for NVIDIA and its enterprise business, given that, according to Jensen, a framework laid down in 2006 is now the company's biggest reason for dominating the AI race. However, according to Jensen Huang's appearance on the Lex Fridman podcast, CUDA was a major bet for NVIDIA at launch, […]

“NVIDIA Wouldn’t Exist Without Gaming,” Says Microsoft CEO, But the Industry That Made It Possible Now Feels Left Behind

10 March 2026 at 18:57

NVIDIA has struggled to balance its consumer and enterprise opportunities, as Microsoft's CEO has reminded Jensen of his 'gaming beginnings'. The Buildup Towards Modern-Day AI Infrastructure Was Initiated With NVIDIA's Focus on Gaming Ever since the launch of ChatGPT, demand for NVIDIA's AI chips has grown to unprecedented levels, to the point that the firm's market capitalization has soared to the trillions in just a few years. Since then, NVIDIA has been predominantly focused on catering to enterprise customers, and the inclination towards them comes at a cost, which we have already begun to see with consumer GPUs. There has […]

Nvidia announces RTX technologies in The Witcher 4, releases new Game Ready driver at GDC 2026

10 March 2026 at 17:00

NVIDIA is expanding its DLSS 4.5 feature set this month, adding new frame‑generation options and wider game support as part of its next NVIDIA app beta arriving at the end of the month.

The new Nvidia App update introduces DLSS 4.5 Dynamic Multi Frame Generation, a system that adjusts the number of generated frames on the fly to help players hit a target frame rate or match their display’s refresh rate. It will be available as an override option within the app but as has always been the case with Multi-Frame Generation, it is a feature exclusive to RTX 50 series GPUs. Upcoming games like 007 First Light and Control Resonant will launch with ray-traced graphics in the coming months and will support DLSS 4.5 from launch.

Another significant GeForce-related announcement at GDC this week came via RTX Mega Geometry. This technology initially debuted in Alan Wake 2, compressing geometry into clusters to accelerate scene updates and reduce VRAM usage. This means dense foliage and other complex environments can be rendered with full-fidelity Path Tracing. Control Resonant will be adopting this feature when it launches this year and further down the line, CD Projekt Red also plans to implement it in The Witcher 4.

Alongside the DLSS updates, NVIDIA has released a new GeForce Game Ready Driver optimised for Crimson Desert and Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, both of which support DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation. The driver also adds support for more than 35 new G‑SYNC Compatible displays. The driver update is available now to download via the Nvidia App and directly through the Nvidia website.

KitGuru Says: What did you think of the new GeForce-related announcements at GDC?

The notorious 16-pin connector melting didn't originate with the RTX 50 series, and it dates back to as early as 2022, when we used to see regular reports of connector melting on the RTX 4090. Despite NVIDIA and its AIBs' attempts to mitigate the problem, the saga continues. Almost every week, we hear new reports of connector melting, mostly on the flagship Blackwell GeForce RTX 5090, rated at 575W. We have been reporting the stories regularly since the launch of the RTX 5090, and even a year after its official launch, the reports continue. Today, we will be deep diving […]

Nvidia is giving away a Resident Evil Requiem-themed RTX 5090 graphics card

28 February 2026 at 09:45

Nvidia has opened a limited-time sweepstakes to celebrate the launch of Resident Evil Requiem, the ninth mainline installment in the legendary survival horror franchise. The prize is a one-of-a-kind GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition featuring a custom wrap inspired by the game's dual protagonists, Grace Ashcroft and Leon S. Kennedy.

The giveaway runs from February 27th to March 2nd and is conducted through the Nvidia UK X account, where entrants must comment with their Resident Evil memory for a chance to win. Details on the giveaway can be found in the Sweepstakes' T&Cs.

 

While Nvidia lists the prize's estimated value at $1,999 for the card plus a $600 custom wrap, current market trends suggest the hardware is worth significantly more. Due to a global memory shortage and surging demand for AI-capable hardware, retail prices for the RTX 5090 have increased since its launch, with the cheapest custom models going for close to £3000. The sweepstakes is a “no-purchase-necessary” event, though eligibility is restricted to specific regions.

The game itself has just been released to critical acclaim, currently with an 88 OpenCritic score. The title leverages the full power of the GeForce RTX 50 Series with PC-exclusive features like Path Tracing and DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation. For those not lucky enough to win the custom GPU, Nvidia is running a concurrent hardware bundle where purchasers of a new RTX 5090, 5080, or 5070-series card (laptop GPUs included) will receive a digital copy of the game through March 16th.

KitGuru says: This sweepstakes arrives at a time when the RTX 5090 has become more of a mythical artefact than a consumer product for many gamers. With street prices currently sitting way above MSRP, winning a Founders Edition, let alone one with a custom Resident Evil aesthetic, is essentially like winning the lottery.

Nvidia disables rollout of latest Game Ready driver, encourages rollback

27 February 2026 at 13:00

The new Nvidia Game Ready graphics driver that began rolling out yesterday has been suddenly pulled shortly after circulation. Nvidia has removed downloads for the driver temporarily while it investigates a number of reported issues.

According to some reports, the new driver contained a bug that would stop GPU fans spinning, as well as a voltage locking issue, HDR problems and issues with simple tasks like video playback.

Nvidia confirmed that it has pulled downloads of the driver on its blog page, saying: “We have discovered a bug in the Game Ready and Studio 595.59 WHQL drivers and have removed the downloads temporarily while our team investigates. For users that have already installed this driver and are experiencing issues with fan control, please roll back to 591.86 WHQL”.

If you have the Nvidia App, you can still roll back your driver through the drivers tab by scrolling down and clicking the three dots in the corner.

KitGuru Says: This is unfortunate timing, especially with Resident Evil Requiem becoming widely available today. There is no timeline yet for a hotfix but we will keep our eyes out for it.
