    so annoyed rn genuine question about update philosophy. My PC is stable on a driver from last year. The new GeForce Hot Fix Driver lists fixes that don't realy affect me. Do u update anyway for security and compatibility, or do u only update when a game or app needs it? I mostly do competitive gaimng lol I am curious how other people handle this, especially anyone who depends on their PC for work and cannot afford a broekn evening. pls help 🙏

    ok but how bad would a day of downtime be for your programming? ??

    been there man driver updates do sometimes include security fixes, so I wouldnt stay on a very old verison forever. but waitnig a week or two after release to see if a hotfix appears is perfectly reasonable. fingers crossed 🤞

    For programming, stability matters more than the newest game optimizations. If there's a separate stable/studio/recommended branch, that's usually teh better fit.
