At roughly 1 GB per update I don't doubt it. It's just the way of things.

I remember somewhere between the 1080 Ti and 2080 Ti things went off the tracks for the better part of a year. I don't remember all the issues I encountered but it was bad enough I stopped updating when they came out and instead waited a couple of months, or longer, unless it was something I really needed. For a while things seemed to get better but here we are again.

So glad I wasn't "lucky" enough to get a 5090 so far. At this point happy to be on the sidelines while the dust settles and watch them work out all the bugs/issues.

I'm still like 20% trying for a 5090... but just not dedicatedly. If I get one great if not... meh.

Yup, those were fun times. And everyone still kept going off on AMD for drivers…
