The nvidia 470xx driver packages are orphaned at RPM Fusion.

Someone will need to step up and maintain them there, update
them yourself locally, or swtich to the upstream Nvidia
driver downloads.

I can tell you that building the 2 or 3 nvidia 470xx packages¹
works well for the later 6.7 and current 6.8 kernels.
Though for anyone unfamiliar with using fedpkg/rfpkg or
building rpms in general, it may be easier to just switch to
the stuff Nvidia provides directly.

¹ xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-470xx, nvidia-settings-470xx,
  nvidia-470xx-kmod.  The settings package may not be
  required, I forget.  It needs to be updated to match the
  others if it's installed.
