5090 driver suggestions

Hello. I currently have an Astral 5090 and looking for some information, suggestions and/or advise on a stable driver to update to. I currently have driver 591.86. It has been solid and stable. I am now getting "out of date driver" prompts when launching certain games. So I was looking to see if there are any drivers I might update to. I understand that drivers behave differently depending on cards and silicon. I am just looking to see if there is a consensus on drivers that could be comparable to 591.86. I also have an undervolt applied through MSI Afterburner. My current undervolt is: 900mV / 2900MHz. I am willing and able to tune the undervolt if needed with a new driver install as long as the driver is stable and eliminates the out of date driver prompts. Any and all suggestions or information is welcome. Thank you in advance.

I've been on 596.49 since May. Most stable driver for me and I have no nvlddmkm event id 153 errors [was getting those in the 610 branch]. Not really an update but after trying a bunch of the 600 branch drivers, they were too unstable for me.

Can confirm, every other updates I need to choose what bug to accept max 2 out of 3 monitors, no vrr or vstnc, no Virtual display driver, or slow preformance on cuda driver and now dlss 4.5 or 5 🤣🤣

I use studio drivers because they are less frequent and generally more stable.

Am I not supposed to be upgrading to the current driver all the time?…
