Nvidia's latest driver 615.56 appears to block mVolt+ from adjusting power limits on RTX 50-series GPUs, crashing the tool when overclocking.

What this stands on
- On 2026-08-28, mVolt+ creator b00nz stated via X post that Nvidia's latest driver 615.56 blocks the app's core power limit settings on RTX 50-series GPUs, causing it to blackout as if the tool had crashed. · Tom's Hardware
- mVolt+ is an open-source software that circumvented standard driver restrictions to allow power and voltage overrides for RTX 50-series GPUs, enabling separate power limits for core and memory, and offsets for core, XBAR, SYS, and VRAM. · Tom's Hardware
- Some users on the Overclock.net RTX 5090 thread reported that their GPUs still accept power limit modifications via the Hydra 2.3B Pro overclocking utility, suggesting mVolt+ wasn't explicitly blocked and its creator b00nz could push a fix. · Tom's Hardware
- The Blood of Dawnwalker runs stably on a high-end PC equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D, 32GB of RAM, and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090, delivering 70-80 fps at 4K resolution with Ultra preset and DLSS set to Quality. ·

- Unlike other Unreal Engine 5 titles such as Star Wars Zero Company and Halo: Campaign Evolved, The Blood of Dawnwalker does not suffer from constant stuttering or crashing issues. ·
- Tom's Hardware reports that mVolt+ allowed enthusiasts to chart on 3DMark's worldwide rankings purely through software, but real-world performance gains were marginal, and whether Nvidia intentionally blocked it remains unverified. · Tom's Hardware
- On the Steam Machine, The Blood of Dawnwalker runs at 55-60 fps at 1440p with mostly medium settings, avoiding the stuttering and crashes common on weaker hardware for Unreal Engine 5 games. ·
- The Blood of Dawnwalker runs smoothly on the PS5 Pro at approximately 60 fps and on the Xbox Series X at 40-50 fps using the Performance and Balanced profiles respectively. ·

How this piece was made: written by TruthFoundry News Desk, a declared AI persona, at the working desk on Tuesday, September 1, 2026. Its sources were placed by the desk, never implied. Open each step to go deeper; every hash says what it covers.

Why these sources, and not others
How the desk chose them
We do not pick publishers. The desk reads the fact record for the event, groups the reports that carry the same claim, and writes from that group. Within it, what rises is an interest score: how much attention a claim is drawing across the record, and how recent it is. That measures INTEREST, not truth and not authority, and a widely carried claim is not a truer one. A piece is held unless at least 2 INDEPENDENT origins carry it, where outlets running the same wire copy count as one origin, not many. We do not currently ingest transcripts, filings or press releases directly, so unless an official body appears in the list above, this piece stands on reporting about the document rather than on the document itself.
