NVIDIA GeForce 526.98 WHQL Drivers Released



NVIDIA today released the latest GeForce Game Ready software. Version 526.98 WHQL adds official support for the GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card launched earlier this week. It also adds optimization for “Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales,” “Warhammer 40,0000: Darktide,” the latest patch update for “WRC Generations,” and “World of Warcraft: Dragonflight.” It adds DLSS 3 support for the latest “Spider-Man” title, as well as DLAA support for “Monster Hunter Rise.” The drivers also introduce official support for DirectStorage 1.1 API, as well as RTX-IO support for Vulkan. This way, even Vulkan API-based games can enjoy GPU-accelerated game asset decompression, speeding up game loading times.

DLSS 3 is now made to get along with VSYNC On G-SYNC and G-SYNC Compatible Monitors & TVs. The new HDR10+ Gaming standard is now implemented. Among the issues fixed with this driver release are a game crash with “Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection,” on GTX 10-series GPUs, application crashes with Daz Studio and Maxon Cinema 4D; and minor quirks with Fujitsu Siemens SL23T-1, and the G-SYNC logo not displaying with LG OLED TVs that support it.
