Semiconductor manufacturer Nvidia recently made the GeForce Game Ready 595.71 WHQL software package available, bringing a drastic change for RTX 5090 owners. The installation file applies strict barriers to the graphics card’s power supply and operating speed, frustrating those who try to exceed these limits with third-party applications. The focus of the change is on the voltage of the graphics core, which had its maximum ceiling lowered by the company. This measure directly affects frequency scalability, a technique widely explored by enthusiasts during stress tests. Popular monitoring tools such as MSI Afterburner already display the new speed restriction. The change changes the component’s behavior under maximum load, placing energy efficiency and system stability above unrestricted performance. The hardware community quickly noticed the significant drop in adjustability compared to previous editions of the program. Technology analysts and overclocking experts now need to review their evaluation methodologies to adapt to the new parameters. The lock works universally,
