Con il lancio di Sniper Elite 4, Halo Wars 2 e For Honor, Nvidia ha rilasciato una nuova versione dei driver video ottimizzati per tutti questi titoli. I nuovi Geforce 378.66 WHQL sono già disponibili, e oltre alle ottimizzazioni già citate, dovrebbero risolvere alcuni bug.



Continua a non essere stato risolto il problema che molti utenti riscontrano in Battlefield 1 utilizzando la GTX 770, o altri modelli della stessa linea. Sul forum ufficiale Nvidia è stato aperto un topic dedicato al problema, che in qualche mese ha raggiunto la pagina numero 540. Gli utenti continuano a lamentare crash continui causati da un errore di DirectX che Nvidia non ha ancora risolto.

I nuovi driver 378.66 WHQL risolvono alcuni bug riscontrati nelle precedenti versioni, come i problemi di caricamento dei livelli di Gears of War 4, o gli episodi di freez e altri problemi legati agli stati di ibernazione e shut-down.

Come sempre, è possibile scaricare i nuovi driver tramite la pagina di supporto Nvidia, o attraverso il software Geforce Experience.
