Game Ready

• Fortnite RTX: This new Game Ready Driver provides support for Fortnite's dramatic new update which adds raytraced effects, NVIDIA DLSS, NVIDIA Reflex, and a custom RTX map.
• Halo 3: ODST: Mafia: The Definitive Edition.

Gaming Technology

• Includes support for GeForce RTX 3080 and 3090 GPUs
• GeForce Experience Automatic Performance Tuning for GeForce RTX 30-series and RTX 20-series
• GeForce Experience in-game performance monitoring for GeForce GTX 600 series and above
• ShadowPlay gameplay recording now supports HDR on GTX 900-series and above (RTX 3090 can capture 8K 30fps HDR)
• NVIDIA Broadcast app with AI-powered noise removal and virtual background
• 5 New G-SYNC Compatible Monitors

New Features
Supports CUDA 11.1

SLI Profiles

• Baldur's Gate 3
• Comanche (NVIDIA Turing GPUs and later)
• Crusader Kings III
• Disintegration (NVIDIA Turing GPUs and later)
• Population Zero
• RIDE 4 (NVIDIA Turing GPUs and later)
• Rocket Arena (NVIDIA Turing GPUs and later)
• The Blackout Club (NVIDIA Turing GPUs and later)

SLI

• Implicit SLI Disabled on NVIDIA Ampere GPUs
• Implicit SLI, where the driver makes assumptions with application profiles to achieve GPU scaling, is disabled on NVIDIA Ampere GPUs. Explicit SLI is still supported, where the application knows the SLI state and uses extensions (such as DirectX 12 linked nodes, Vulkan device groups, or OpenGL multicast extensions) to issue commands to each device in the SLI group.

Fixed Issues
