Now that’s a bit of a bummer … limited or lowering the maximum GPU Boost clock speed, is like putting a limiter on your sports car to go at 70 mph. Nice one Nvidia … Not!
Taken from PCWorld … On Monday morning, Nvidia released new GeForce Game Ready drivers that appear to fix the stability issues. We were able to test the drivers on a on a troublesome RTX 3080 graphics card in PCWorld’s possession.
Nvidia’s article about the 456.55 Game Ready drivers overtly mentions only enabling Nvidia Reflex in Call of Duty. But buried deep in the release notes were an interesting tidbit: “The new Game Ready Driver also improves stability in certain games on RTX 30 Series GPUs.”
I have a custom GeForce RTX 3080 brimming with an all-POSCAP capacitor configuration that reliably crashed in Horizon Zero Dawn with the older, original 456.38 drivers. The new 456.55 Game Ready drivers indeed puts an end to that, but it looks like it does so by slightly limiting the maximum GPU Boost clock speed—though at no cost to overall performance.
