Hey everyone! I recently set up an undervolt and overclock on my 5090 graphics card, with a 900 volt undervolt and a frequency of 2730 MHz using the Afterburner curve editor. I noticed there's a new Nvidia hotfix driver available due to some voltage issues with their drivers. Should I go ahead and install this hotfix driver automatically, or are there specific things I should check first to see if I need it? Thanks for your help!

If you're not sure about the hotfix driver, it might be a good idea to revert to the factory settings on your GPU for peace of mind. You can always readjust your settings later if everything works fine after the new driver installation.
900 volts and it's still operational? That’s impressive! From what I’ve seen, the undervolt for 50 series cards, especially the 5090, tends to be pretty stable. I've watched a ton of tutorials on undervolting, and many people seem to have success with similar setups.
What do you mean by reverting to factory settings? What should I be watching out for that indicates I need to go back?
