So it looks like we are heading to a future where you update your drivers every time a new game comes out

 

[Kaotik]

So it looks like we are heading to a future where you update your drivers every time a new game comes out

One step from the Detonator-past where you'd need to switch drivers based on what game you wanted to play

 

[DegustatoR]

So it looks like we are heading to a future where you update your drivers every time a new game comes out

Not really. You can play this game on a previous driver just fine, it doesn't have the profile for the game but that's about it.

Most of the time, yes. But some rare cases like ff16 will day incompatible gpu or incompatible instruction

 

[Albuquerque]

I spun a few posts out into a new thread where the interesting conversation can continue unabated.

Let's try our best to reserve this thread for the intended, titled goal of new driver announcements for NVIDIA and commentary surrounding specific claimed changes to said new driver releases.

Fixed General Bugs

• Enabling MSAA globally causes corruption to Steamlink streaming [4741818)

Hey! I actually ran into this issue, streaming from the BigAss Gaming Rig upstairs to my Steamdeck docked into my TV downstairs. Nice to know this is fixed... It was actually something I was just testing with, as normally I wouldn't enforce MSAA at the driver level. Confused the hell out of me when the stream was all jacked up and I couldn't understand why. Resetting the driver settings all back to defaults fixed it, and I didn't really figure out what it was until right now.

They also officially released the app that's been in beta for a year, I don't hate it.

 

[Davros]

I don't hate it.

That's a stunning recommendation

 

[digitalwanderer]

That's a stunning recommendation

For me it is. Been using it since getting the 2070 super and getting used to nVidia again. It has some controls the CP doesn't have and it's pretty well behaved on resources.

I don't hate it and it does what it's supposed to. Good job nVidia and thank you.
