NVIDIA Releases GeForce 466.11 Game Ready Drivers

[btarunr]

NVIDIA today released the latest version of GeForce Game Ready drivers. Version 466.11 WHQL comes with optimization for "Mortal Shell," including support for raytracing and DLSS. The drivers also add NVIDIA Reflex support for "Valorant" with its latest patch. The drivers also integrate NVIDIA Broadcast noise reduction feature into OBS. The list of monitors with support for NVIDIA G-SYNC grows, with the addition of LG's 2021 G1, B1, C1, and Z1 series monitors; and the MSI MAG301RF.

Among the bugs fixed with GeForce 466.11 drivers are low frame-rates on "Supreme Commander/Supreme Commander 2," RAW files showing up black on Adobe Lightroom; "Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 VR" stuttering on machines with hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling disabled; and some displays showing incorrect color levels after booting into Windows. Grab the drivers from the link below.

God this has been a thing since Shadowlands released. Why is this not fixed yet!?

 

[katzi]

and STILL no fixes for the sezure-inducing flickering in World of Warcraft...

COME OOOOOOOOOOOONNNNN...

God this has been a thing since Shadowlands released. Why is this not fixed yet!?

I'd expect this level of neglect from AMD in the past, but effing hell nvidia...

Disabling MSAA fixes it.

 

[Ruru]

Someone else can test these with a 1080 Ti, I'm too lazy to test every driver version.

VR issue still not fixed. I'm gonna bang my head against a wall.

I will but I'm too lazy to post a review on it xD
I'm just curious about :

Some displays may show incorrect color levels after booting into Windows. [3285148/3287063]

If it does weird stuff I will post again, if I remain silent it would mean it's fine.

May I ask what the issue is? Just curious as I am not a VR user.

Nauseating micro-stutter and hiccups on VR. I never experience it in my 2070 Super. To add, I can use 6 ft DP extensions and USB on my 2070S but they don't work on my 3080.

 

[R-T-B]

Weird. That sucks, hope they resolve it faster than it took for my last issue to be resolved! (nearly 7 months)

That statement proves you havent played it in a while.

lol sure thing. my ilev 213 dps monk disagrees with you, but mmk

 

[xkm1948]

What VR issue? Complete fine on my 3090

The game is constantly updated, last expansion came out half a year ago. No reason to be surprised something might not work.

Its funny that you think just because it's an old game that it isnt susceptible to bugs and glitches. When it's actually on nvidia and not blizzard.

 

[Breit]

Disabling MSAA fixes it.

No it doesn't. But disabling Raytracing shadows fixes it. At least for me here. Nvidia 3090. Tested in Bastion.
Nevertheless, the driver doesn't do anything in this regard.

Indeed, but there is a profile fix for it. I've been using it for months now, with no issues.

Save the following as a .nip file and load it into Nvidia Profile Inspector, or check the attached .zip.

i use clean edition drivers because i don't want any nvidia crap and we obviously all know how bloated official drivers can be

Yup, I install the latest driver the minute it comes out and I haven’t come unstuck yet lol.
Mind you, I don’t play games all that often, so that probably helps.
