NVIDIA Releases GeForce 416.34 WHQL Game Ready Drivers

btarunr · Oct 12, 2018

NVIDIA today released GeForce 416.34 WHQL "Game Ready" drivers. These drivers provide optimization for "Call of Duty: Black Ops 4" (retail), "Soulcaliber VI," and "GRIP." Among the fixed issues with this release are buggy shadows in "Player Unknown's Battlegrounds," some games launching to a black screen when DSR is enabled, a colorful shimmering line noticed in some games when playing full-screen with G-SYNC enabled, Surround display not being available from NVIDIA Control Panel with Edge browser running, and green screen display corruption on certain games with HDR enabled. Grab the drivers from the link below.

Soulcaliber

Auto correct flaw.

It is Soulcalibur.

Pretty much nailed Geralt moves.

Just grabbed these because Win10 updated itself and decided that I would rather auto update drivers now after I told it hell naw for months. Started my PC and started getting a bunch of screen flashes and I knew what happened..I knew right then and there this pos was making its own decisions. So I just reinstalled all my old saved drivers and changed the setting back..why tf do they let it revert back after Win10 updates? its torturous..

Sooo, the golden question is, are those optimisations for 20x0 series ONLY, or for the older generations also??

nvidia have never released drivers that only worked for one specific series, so why expect that now?

Good. Hope they fixet dsr black screen then. Cause i got that with the latest driver before it in far cry 5 and before that it worked flawless.

I am pretty sure i have seen that weird gsync issue happening in WOW every once in a while. Hopefully these will fix it

On my emulation machine I have a GTX 770 and noticed 411.63 drivers would cause a green screen. Couldnt even access safe mode without console commands (ugh WIN10). Pain in the ass and dont feel like attempting again with these unless its fixed. Anyone know if its fixed?

They've had a few crappy drivers and 411.70 was the fix for that, so likely yes.

I wonder how 416.34 compares, they've done a great job dropping the frame rate on a 1060 6gb - I might revert to 399.24 on my 1080 ti.

I was talking about the "optimizations" only. Do they still do that for older generation cards, or those drivers are pointless?
That was my q.
