Nvidia released a new stable driver update, 430.64 WHQL, and it comes with some big improvements, not to mention support for a couple of upcoming games.

Nvidia usually releases updates when new games are about to come out, and the latest 430.64 WHQL is no different. It’s not necessarily about game performance, but about making sure that it’s compatible with the latest technologies,

That’s not to say that Nvidia drivers don’t also improve game performance. In fact, this latest version comes with significant improvements for a few titles, which is always a nice thing to receive even if you’re not playing them because the might share the engine with other titles in your collection.

RTX 2080 Ti owners rejoice

The main feature for this new Nvidia driver release is the support for the upcoming RAGE 2, arriving on May 14th, and Total War: Three Kingdoms, which should be here on May 23rd.

“GeForce Game Ready drivers deliver the definitive day-1 gaming experience for the latest and greatest releases, and further optimizations and enhancements for the games you’re already playing. New Game Ready Driver 430.64 WHQL delivers the best experience for Rage 2 and Total War: Three Kingdoms, and accelerates World War Z performance by up to 18%,” reads the official announcement.

This latest part is quite interesting because the difference in performance is very large and 18% is not something that can be ignored. From the looks of it, this improvement is achieved for the Vulkan driver and noticeable when used on RTX 2080 TI.

It's also important to mention that the higher CPU usage reported by users regarding the NVDisplay.Container.exe introduced in 430.39 drivers has been fixed,

As usual, you can download the Nvidia 430.64 WHQL drivers manually or you use Geforce Experience to get it automatically.
