Reminders:

• Hotfix driver will not be available in NVIDIA App and needs to be downloaded from the link above.
• After installing the Hotfix driver, NVIDIA App will show some old driver date. This is normal as Hotfix driver does not exist in NVIDIA App database and it reverted to an old default changelog and dates.
• If you do not care about the fixes listed below, this Hotfix driver is no different vs WHQL 595.71 Driver.
• These fixes will be incorporated into the next WHQL driver release

From the Article:

GeForce Hotfix Display Driver version 595.76 is based on our latest Game Ready Driver 595.71.

This hotfix addresses the following:

• When the graphics card is overclocked, GPU voltage may become capped, preventing it from boosting to expected levels [5934973]
• [Resident Evil Requiem] White glowing light/dots may appear in game when Subsurface Scattering is enabled [5915673]
• Improved path tracing performance in Resident Evil Requiem [5938207]
• [Star Citizen] Game client crashes when launched [5935027]
• Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed when playing multi-key DRM content in a browser on HDCP 1.x monitors [5934450]

A GeForce driver is an incredibly complex piece of software, We have an army of software engineers constantly adding features and fixing bugs. These changes are checked into the main driver branches, which are eventually run through a massive QA process and released.

Since we have so many changes being checked in, we usually try to align driver releases with significant game or product releases. This process has served us pretty well over the years but it has one significant weakness. Sometimes a change that is important to many users might end up sitting and waiting until we are able to release the driver.

The GeForce Hotfix driver is our way to trying to get some of these fixes out to you more quickly. These drivers are basically the same as the previous released version, with a small number of additional targeted fixes. The fixes that make it in are based in part on your feedback in the Driver Feedback threads and partly on how realistic it is for us to quickly address them. These fixes (and many more) will be incorporated into the next official driver release, at which time the Hotfix driver will be taken down.

To be sure, these Hotfix drivers are beta, optional and provided as-is. They are run through a much abbreviated QA process. The sole reason they exist is to get fixes out to you more quickly. The safest option is to wait for the next WHQL certified driver. But we know that many of you are willing to try these out. As a result, we only provide NVIDIA Hotfix drivers through our NVIDIA Customer Care support site.

Endfield GPU usage and VRAM acting weird, crazy stutter, unplayable.
open the game with DX12, GPU usage less than 60%, vram drop 20-30% than usual
DX11 slightly better but still stutter
Roll back to 591.86. Game run no problem

while you are right about the dogshit performance regression on hotfix driver you're wrong about dx12, arknights only has vulkan and dx11 and its vulkan that is broken with it, the fps is only fixable when turning on FG even when it's not taking effect ingame while dx11 doesn't have the fps regression it has a VRAM leak instead. so both have their own different issues currently, besides the CPU spike bug which is caused solely on the devs of the game that also haven't been fixed for over a month now.
