GeForce 527.37 WHQL: New Game Ready driver accelerates Need for Speed
admin
Nvidia's first graphics driver in December, the GeForce 527.37 WHQL (“Game Ready”) brings not only the obligatory bug fixes but also optimizations for Criterion Games'. new underground racing game Need for Speed Unbound including DLSS 3 (test).
The new driver also supports the tactical role-playing game Marvel's Midnight Suns, which will be released tomorrow, with ray tracing and DLSS Super Resolution or DLSS 2. It is a turn-based strategy game from the Civilization developer Firaxis, with Nvidia and Take Two collaborating as publishers.
Another driver for current GeForce graphics cards
The new driver follows the GeForce 526.98, which was released in mid-November 2022, which, among other things, supported the GeForce RTX 4080 (test) as a second graphics card with Ada Lovelace GPU for the first time, fixed a problem with high power consumption on the desktop and optimized for Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales (test), Warhammer 40,000 Darktide and World of Warcraft: Dragonflight brought with it. A week ago, the two graphics drivers GeForce 474.04 and 474.06 were also released, which are security updates for Nvidia Kepler aka GeForce 600 and GeForce 700 under Windows 7 to 11 – but the release is not relevant for owners of new Nvidia graphics cards, because the corresponding Security updates are included in current “Game Ready” drivers anyway.
Fixed and still open bugs
As is usual with every new game-ready release, Nvidia also lists a number of fixed and still open but already known bugs in the official release notes (PDF). Among other things, a bug has been fixed that could cause flickering image output when playing the Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition (test) on a GeForce RTX 4000 graphics card.
