Will a new driver fix this?

I get this stuff on the water as shown in the circled area. I have an NVIDIA GeForce 5080 with Driver 591.74

Thanks.

I dont think so, did you try to delete the shader cache? This might help...

I didn’t do that. How do I do it?

Do you have nVIDIA or AMD GPU? And you know you can use the Gemini AI to provide you a very simple "how to"? Google AI tells me:

nVIDIA GPU: To delete the NVIDIA shader cache, disable the shader cache in the NVIDIA Control Panel, restart your PC, and manually delete the contents of the DXCache and GLCache folders located in %localappdata%\\NVIDIA\\. Then set the shader cache size again on your preferred value (I would suggest "unlimited"). 

AMD GPU: To delete the AMD shader cache and fix potential game stuttering, open the AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition, navigate to Gaming > Graphics, scroll down to find Advanced, and click Reset next to "Reset Shader Cache". A system restart is recommended afterward to ensure a clean rebuild.

I have an NVIDIA 5080. I don’t know if mine is turned on as I never use that control panel. As for AI, I don’t use it for anything.

Then it is most probably on, because that is the default setting.

Well, I did exactly as you described and it still looks the same. I guess I’ll have to live with it.

Not sure why folks here suggest you reset your cache, I know they all know this is a common issue with water in MSFS 2024 ... in some areas it's much worse with black gaps between the rendered tiles.

It was just a suggestion that might (!) help, it did not. Was still worth trying, as clearing the shader cache doesnt harm...

For your information, this will be resolved in future Sim updates like msfs2020 at the time. Be patient...

I stopped deleting my 64gb cache because then my runways are blurry when I land.

One can only hope. It's been around since 2020 was released and it made it's way into 2024.
