This new Game Ready Driver provides support for the latest new titles and updates, including the latest game updates for Red Dead Redemption 2 and Chernobylite which introduce NVIDIA DLSS technology.

Prior to a new title launching, our driver team is working up until the last minute to ensure every performance tweak and bug fix is included for the best gameplay on day-1. Nevertheless, Microsoft and third-party developers are urging users and enterprises to make the inevitable upgrade.Game Ready Drivers provide the best possible gaming experience for all major new releases. Windows 7, for instance, still accounts for 15 percent of all Windows versions. It is worth noting that a considerable percentage of Windows PCs across the world still rely on Windows 7, 8, and 8.1. The company has provided customers with enough time to upgrade to Windows 10. Starting from the 4th of October 2021, however, all updates from NVIDIA would be targeted towards Windows 10 only. Similarly, the last fully-fledged update for Windows 7 and Windows 8 devices will be launched on the 31st of August 2021.

Therefore, these updates would not provide new features. It must be noted that these critical security updates are designed to protect the device from GPU-based security threats. Critical security updates will be available on systems utilizing Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 8.1 through September 2024,” NVIDIA says. “Effective October 2021, Game Ready Driver upgrades, including performance enhancements, new features, and bug fixes, will be exclusively available for systems utilizing Windows 10 as their operating system. For instance, Windows 7 and 8 devices will receive critical security updates until September 2024. In the support note, NVIDIA has made a few more announcements as well. Long story short, Microsoft has made it clear that sticking to the previous versions of Windows OS is not the brightest idea. Windows 8.1 is set to receive extended support, but it will be available only until January 2023.
