Hello Ipiotrowski211
I used to get the "nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered" from overclocking.
Even though you may not be overclocking, try reducing the core clock 50MHz-100MHz and see if the error stops.
Regarding the idle black screen enabling the performance mode is the only way to have a stable card.
But we always have maximum voltages and frequencies.
That's why it works.
The defective chip fails to be stable under the low voltage of the idle state.
It's a workaround that shouldn't exist on a 2600 euro card.
It has to work perfectly out of the box.
The only solution is to RMA the card.
I had the same problem and wasted my time and money trying to fix it.
I sent the card to ASUS for assistance and they recognized the problem immediately without batting an eye.
They refunded me because they didn't have stock to replace.
I bought another 4090 Strix and it works perfectly.
Sadly there will be no magic drivers or special bios to fix a problem caused by a bad chip.
The card must work with all the drivers otherwise every update you have to rely on providence.
