NVIDIA has released the GeForce Game Ready 591.59 WHQL driver, a relatively small update that focuses more on fixes than on adding features. As usual, NVIDIA says the driver "optimizes the experience" in games using DLSS 4 and NVIDIA Reflex, but does not name any specific new titles. This suggests that the 591.59 WHQL driver is either a general tuning version or a maintenance release rather than a game-specific launch driver. The most notable change addresses a color bug introduced in the previous driver. Users running games or applications at non-native resolutions or aspect ratios could see washed-out or incorrect colors, this issue is now fixed. On the gaming side the driver resolves stability problems in Enshrouded on GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs, fixes a broken HDR toggle in Assassin's Creed Valhalla when Smooth Motion is enabled, and corrects crash issues in Dying Light: The Beast that appeared after updating to driver version 591.44.

NVIDIA has also made a couple of general improvements that are worth mentioning. They've fixed a problem where display colors looked washed out after changing from native resolution, and they've solved an issue that could lead to black screens when RTX HDR was turned on with certain TVs. In general, GeForce 591.59 WHQL driver seems to be a maintenance release that aims to increase stability and correct known issues instead of adding new features. If you've been dealing with color problems or crashes in recent drivers, you'll want to update. However, if you haven't experienced these issues, you might not notice much difference in your everyday use.
