Nvidia Releases New Driver to Optimize Gaming Experience
Nvidia has unveiled its latest driver update, aiming to enhance the gaming experience for PC players. The new Nvidia GeForce Driver 555.85 brings a range of optimizations and support for upcoming titles while also improving performance for recent releases.
One of the highlights of this driver update is its support for Hellblade 2, EA Sports F1 24, XDefiant, and Serum. By installing this driver, gamers can ensure their graphics card is fully equipped to handle the demands of these highly anticipated games. Hellblade 2 benefits from Nvidia DLSS 3 support, including frame generation and Reflex, while Serum offers DLAA support. EA Sports F1 24 takes it a step further by incorporating ray tracing capabilities. Although XDefiant currently only includes Reflex support, future updates may introduce additional features.
In addition to optimizing these new games, the driver update also provides optimal settings for four recent releases. Nvidia’s Optimal Playable Settings system analyzes a player’s hardware and recommends the best in-game settings for optimal performance. Ghost of Tsushima, Bellwright, Homeworld 3, and Infection Free Zone are among the latest games to receive these profiles.
Furthermore, the driver update introduces Nvidia G-Sync support for 11 compatible displays from popular brands such as LG, Philips, Asus, Dell, and IODATA. This ensures a seamless gaming experience by eliminating screen tearing and stuttering.
Lastly, the update includes two bug fixes. One resolves random gameplay crashes experienced by Nvidia GTX 10 series card users when playing Tekken 8. The other fix reduces GPU utilization in Horizon Forbidden West when Reflex is set to “on + boost,” resulting in improved performance.
Before diving into the world of Hellblade 2 or any other new game, make sure to download and install the latest Nvidia driver. This will guarantee that your graphics card is ready to deliver the best possible gaming experience with optimized performance and enhanced visuals.
