NVIDIA Releases GeForce 535.98 WHQL Game Ready Drivers

[T0@st]

NVIDIA has today released the latest iteration of its GeForce Game Ready drivers - Version 535.98 WHQL. This latest update provides optimizations in advance for the launch of Blizzard's long awaited and much anticipated new entry in the Diablo series - IV launches on June 6th with day one support for NVIDIA DLSS 3 and NVIDIA Reflex. Today's release of Nightdive's System Shock Remake is also catered for in the shape of DLSS 2 enhancements. Today's patch notes indicate that a general gaming bug fix addresses reports of GeForce Experience Freestyle filters causing in-game crashes. General amendments include the prevention of brief monitor flickering following waking from display sleep mode with DSR/DLDSR enabled, and visual glitches encountered in productivity software (SOLIDWORKS 2023, MAGIX Vegas Pro 7 & more). Owners of GeForce RTX 4090 GPUs will not be happy to find out that a sky flickering issue encountered in Watch Dogs 2 is not yet fixed - this remains an open issue.

I've added the direct link as a placeholder - admin team is evidently busy or now in bed chez Computex '23, so the TPU driver download section isn't fully up-to-date.

How the hell is this still not fixed?

It's there long enough to be counted as a feature.

1 trillion-dollar company vs high DPC latency.
