Rockstar Games Blames “NVIDIA GPUs, Certain CPUs” for Red Dead Redemption 2 PC Issues

The PC port of Red Dead Redemption II is in much better shape after patch 1.14, but unfortunately, a complete fix for the issues that remain (e.g., crashing and stuttering) will take additional time. That’s because the root of the problem, according to Rockstar Games, lies with third parties: specifically, “NVIDIA graphics drivers, NVIDIA GPU cards, and certain CPUs.” The game did receive an update yesterday, but it was for new content only.

We will be rolling out an update to the game today which will address the stuttering issue alongside a host of other fixes. However, we are still currently working together with Nvidia to completely resolve the stuttering issue in a future update, and it may take us up to a few days to properly test everything and ensure the next update completely solves the problem.
