What’s New in Version 440 U5

Provides optimal support and bug fixes for the latest Studio applications including Redshift Renderer, Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve, Foundry MODO, and more.
- Beginning with version 442.19, NVIDIA no longer provides Quadro drivers for Windows 7.

Fixed Issues in Version 440 U5

- [Quadro P1000][Notebook][OpenGL quad-buffered stereo]: The screen turns black after enabling quad-buffered stereo.
- [Creo 6]: Models are not textured properly.
- [Creo]: The driver crashes while drawing lines using glDrawArrays (GL_LINE_STRIP).
- [Catia]: The system crashes {error 7 code 3) when using Vulkan-OpenGL interoperability.
- [DaVinci Resolve Studio]: Shared memory of the non-Display GPU is not flushed when switching Resolve projects multiple times.
- [Redshift][CUDA]: CUDA memory leak with cuMemHostAlloc/cuMemFreeHost occurs when there is more than one device/context active in the app.
- [Modo]: The application crashes when monitors are connected to separate GPUs in a dual GPU system.
- [Optix 6 Denoiser][HDR]: Artifacts appear in HDR mode when tiling is in effect.
- [Optix][Demand Load] Artifacts appear in non-square, non-mipmapped textures.
- [RayTracing]: V-Ray intersection artifacts appear when 2D displacement is enabled in a scene.
- [Quadro RTX/P-series][OpenGL]: Image Copy does not work between different GPUs.
- [Maya]: The application locks up during clFlush() call when using OpenCL / OpenGL interoperability.

About Graphics Drivers:

While installing the graphics driver allows the system to properly recognize the chipset and the card manufacturer, updating the video driver can bring about various changes.

It can improve the overall graphics experience and performance in either games or various engineering software applications, include support for newly developed technologies, add compatibility with newer GPU chipsets, or resolve different problems that might have been encountered.

When it comes to applying this release, the installation steps should be a breeze, as each manufacturer tries to make them as easy as possible so that each user can update the GPU on their own and with minimum risks (however, check to see if this download supports your graphics chipset).

Therefore, get the package (extract it if necessary), run the setup, follow the on-screen instructions for a complete and successful installation, and make sure you reboot the system so that the changes take effect.

That being said, download the driver, apply it on your system, and enjoy your newly updated graphics card. Moreover, check with our website as often as possible in order to stay up to speed with the latest releases.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
