NVIDIA today released the latest version of their GeForce drivers, which enable your green-powered card to run smoothly and without issues. This latest driver release is a Game-Ready one, which aims to enable the smoothest possible experience on recently-released game titles. The focus for this 384.94 version of NVIDIA's GeForce drivers was on Lawbreakers and the official release of ARK: Survival Evolved. In addition, under the "Game Ready VR" moniker, NVIDIA is also providing the "optimal gaming experience for EVE: Valkyrie's "Ultra" graphics update."

SLI profiles for ARK: Survival Evolved, IL-2: Sturmovik: Battle of Stalingrad and Lawbreakers were added or updated, and 3D Vision profiles were updated for "Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice" (Not Recommended), Lawbreakers (Fair), and ARK: Survival Evolved (Not Recommended). As always, you can grab the drivers right here on TPU. Just follow the link below, and feel free to peruse fixed and current issues after the break.

I'd love to try Valkyrie's "Ultra" graphics update, looks pretty sweet!

Has LiquidVR gone the way of the Dodo then? Presumably that is all about being "open" AKA let others do the work?

LiquidVR was a joke. RTG wrote up some nice presentation slides and that was all it has. All talk no action, typical RTG

On a side note, Did you get a VR HMD as well?

And NVIDIA Experience is broken as well. Whining about no internet connection even though I'm just writing this online... Get your shit together NVIDIA. Didn't disappoint me for decades and now all the shit in 3 months time. Ugh.

Oh god, can't even report an issue with it. As I'm typing feedback report about NVIDIA Experience and NVIDIA Experience forcefully closes itself because that's suppose to fix the issue. Except it doesn't. Pretty shitty experience there NVIDIA...

I clicked on the Developers link on their VR site, and link didn't even work for me!

Just dabbled with a friends, but I think the whole Space sim stuff, sitting in the cockpit works really well.

Just for desktop capture video recording. That part works well and delivers great video quality.

Opera too.

Because Chrome and Firefox are shit. Clumsy, buggy and both need 5 metric tons of addons/extensions to be even half usable. Opera has most of stuff already integrated which makes it so much better to use.
