No, the new GeForce driver does not yet bring any optimizations for Hogwarts Legacy – to answer numerous inquiries from readers in advance. Instead, however, Company of Heroes 3 is already being considered, which will only be released in a good two weeks. The GeForce 528.49 WHQL also supports the new RTX 4000 Mobile GPUs.
Game Ready and DLSS
In the “Game Ready” section, the following games with the GeForce 528.49 WHQL driver receive optimizations or DLSS or Reflex support:
- Hello Neighbor 2 (optimizations and DLSS patched on February 17th)
- PERISH (optimizations and DLSS)
- Company of Heroes 3 (Day 0 optimizations)
< li>World of Warcraft (support for Nvidia Reflex)
So there are still no adjustments for the open-world blockbuster Hogwarts Legacy, which will be officially released the day after tomorrow.< /p>
Geforce RTX 4000 Mobile Support
Nevertheless, this is an important update, because with the GeForce 528.49 WQHL, the new notebook generation with GeForce RTX 4090 and GeForce RTX 4080 in the mobile version (test) is officially supported for the first time.
More G-Sync displays
In contrast to AMD FreeSync, with Nvidia G-Sync the monitors must first be enabled via drivers so that they are compatible. The now very long list of G-Sync-compatible monitors has been expanded to include the following ten models:
- AOC PD32M
- ASUS XG32AQ< /li>
- ASUS XG27AQV
- IO-Data GCQ271HA
- Lenovo Y27-30
- LG 27GR950
- LG 45GR95QE
- MSI G321Q
- ViewSonic VX2781-2K-Pro/2
- ViewSonic VX2781-4K-Pro
“Optimal” settings for further games
If you not only install the driver package, but also the GeForce Experience software, you can use this to automatically make the “optimal” game settings from the software's point of view at the push of a button. The prerequisite for this is support for the respective game. This is now the case for five other games:
- Dead Space
- Dual Universe
- Goat Simulator 3
- Paragon: The Overprime
- STALCRAFT
