Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 75440, member: 636"] Nvidia cut off Maxwell and Pascal GPUs from getting regular Linux driver updates with the beta 590.44.01 release, meaning GTX 900 and GTX 10 series cards are stuck with quarterly security patches instead of game-ready optimizations. The company kept these decade-old cards on life support longer than expected by extending Linux support past the 580 branch, but anyone still rocking these relics should probably think about upgrading to RTX 50 series hardware before VRAM prices spike. The Linux driver 590 supports Turing architecture and newer models while delivering bug fixes and better compatibility, though most gamers have already ditched these ancient cards based on Steam hardware surveys showing barely anyone uses them anymore.
