what version of the nvidia driver do you use? (RTX 5xxx series) - EDITED/UPDATED

jardine

hi!  i'm 'upgrading' to a new computer.  it was built with studio in mind, so it's frustrating that studio is the *one app* that crashes it.

if you have a 5xxx series nvidia GPU, which nvidia studio driver works best for you? 

please, don't be shy!  any recommendation is better than i have presently.

i am testing all of the availabe studio drivers in the hopes of finding one that will let me render in daz studio 6 more than once without crashing the app.  about half of my renders 'complete' by crashing the app.  

if you've found a version that doesn't send the fans into permanent overdrive, i'd love to hear it.  

yt,

There is no 50xx series support for rendering in DS4. To use a 50xx GPU, you have to use DS6.

Despite this being the official position, I'm at this moment rendering in 4.24 with dual RTX 5000 Ada GPUs. I use driver 596.59. THey also work with Studio 6, but it's incredibly unstable for me when not doing anything GPU related (that I know of; posing and loading assets in smooth shaded view).

Blackwell 50xx GPU, like the OP is probably asking about, are not compatible with DS4. Your 5000 Ada is the prior generation and shares DNA with to 40xx series GPUs.
