NVIDIA Shuts Down RTX 5000 Power Limit Control OC in Latest Driver Update
NVIDIA's latest driver update (616.56) reportedly blocks the power limit control functionality that mVolt+ unlocked on RTX 5000 GPUs. Users on Overclock.net forums report black screens when trying to input extra current, similar to a driver crash. A beta build of Hydra 2.3 still appears to access core power overrides. It is unclear if NVIDIA intentionally blocked mVolt+ or if the issue is an incompatibility with the new driver.
