**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**


New feature and fixes in driver 581.80:​

Game Ready​

This new Game Ready Driver provides the best gaming experience for the latest new games supporting DLSS 4 technology including Call of Duty: Black Ops 7. In addition, there is Game Ready support for Anno 117: Pax Romana and Europa Universalis V which feature DLSS Super Resolution

Fixed Gaming Bugs​

  • FIXED F1 25: Performance optimizations when using DLSS Frame Generation [5422722]

Fixed General Bugs​

  • FIXED Vulkan apps crash when launched on Core 2 Duo / Core 2 Quad CPUs [5509161]

Open Issues​

Includes additional open issues from GeForce Forums

  • Counter-Strike 2: Text may appear slightly distorted when in-game resolution is lower than the native resolution of the display [5278913]
    • Manuel@NVIDIA wrote on August 28th: The [CS2] changes that were made touch a lot of parts of the driver so it needs to go through extensive testing to make sure it doesn't introduce new issues. It will be in our next driver branch.
    • Counter Strike 2 fix is expected in the next driver branch, that usually means a new mainline/release branch i.e. 585 expected late October/early November 2025
  • Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth: Light flickering after driver update on some system configurations [5432356]

Support Plan For Maxwell, Pascal & Volta Architecture GPUs, and Windows 10​

After a final Game Ready Driver release in October 2025, GeForce GPUs based on Maxwell, Pascal, and Volta architectures will transition to receiving quarterly security updates for the next three years (through October 2028). Our support lifetime for these GPUs reaches up to 11 years, well beyond industry norms.

Also, we’re extending Windows 10 Game Ready Driver support for all GeForce RTX GPUs to October 2026, a year beyond the operating system’s end-of-life, to ensure users continue to receive the latest day-0 optimizations for new games and apps.
