Based on my own testing, newer releases appeared to introduce unusual performance and latency issues, while reverting to 591.74 noticeably improved system behavior. Nouveau may also be worth considering in some Linux setups, depending on your needs and compatibility requirements. I first noticed the issue when friends on Discord had trouble hearing me while I was playing a newer game. Using LatencyMon, I traced the problem to a significant spike in GPU related audio latency, which was unexpected on an RTX 5090 class system. After researching similar reports and rolling back to 591.74, I saw substantial improvements: Discord audio problems disappeared, and performance increased significantly across nearly every title I tested, in some cases by more than 20%. I appreciate that information. When I get home, I’ll take a look and see what version I’m running. Quote
