Founder Brian Posted August 21, 2019 Founder Share Posted August 21, 2019 Well that didn't take long for NVIDIA to respond to Navi. The new 436.02 Game Ready Driver adds the following features:Game Ready Provides increased performance and the optimal gaming experience for Apex Legends, Battlefield V, Forza Horizon 4, Strange Brigade, and World War Z Gaming Technology Adds Beta support for GPU Integer Scaling Adds Beta support for Ultra-Low Latency Mode Adds support for new Freestyle Sharpen Filter Adds support for new G-SYNC compatible monitors Driver release notes: https://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/436.02/436.02-win10-win8-win7-release-notes.pdf This isn't the old max pre-rendered frames setting, its supposedly a new improved algorithm that matches AMDs anti-lag feature for Navi. Next up is support for integer scaling which Intel recently announced but it seems NVIDIA beat everyone to the punch. Unfortunately, this is only for Turing for now: Additionally NVIDIA has created a new filter for FreeStyle simply called "Sharpen" which improves performance and visual clarity that is supposed to be on par with RSI but with much broader support and granular adjustment. According to Eurogamer, "They also point out that the amount of sharpening can be adjusted from 0 to 100 per cent, applied on a per-game basis and works with games across all major graphics APIs: DX9, DX11, DX12 and Vulkan". Finally, the driver brings with it some game performance improvement, including very popular titles like Apex Legends which sees up to 23% boost at 1080p: Overall a pretty solid release, it had some issues earlier when it was released with GeForce Experience being force installed but it should be remedied by now.

Dr. AMK Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Do you recommend updating to this driver for all older GPU's like the GTX 9xx/m, 10xx and the RTX? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes although Kepler notebook support is discontinued w/this driver release unfortunately. However Maxwell/Pascal/Turing do well with this driver and I'd recommend upgrading. Integer support is currently only for Turing but I'm hoping NVIDIA makes it available to Maxwell/Pascal once it's out of beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also hoping that nvidia will make the integer scaling available to the older Cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squee66 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Yeah I dont know how integer scaling is a turing feature when the hardware demand is going to be minimal considering the exact content its going to be used for. it should(theoretically) be easily implemented in maxwell/pascal cards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
