Nvidia today released a new GeForce Game Ready WHQL 416.81 driver update which comes with many improvements and fixes. This is the same update which was released to the beta users a couple of weeks ago.

The update comes with optimizations for Battlefield V along with many other fixes and improvements. Battlefield V comes with support for Nvidia’s RTX implementation. Below is the full list of other fixes and improvements added in the driver update.

What’s fixed and improved

• An issue with the Edge Browser with Application Guard cannot be opened when Surround is enabled has been fixed.
• An issue with the Blue screen crash which occurred when exiting games when using G-Sync monitor has now been fixed.
• Users complained of Stuttering which occurred with HEVC video playback. This has now been fixed in the latest driver update.

• An issue with the AV receiver switching to 2-channel stereo mode after 5 seconds of audio idle has been fixed.
• Issues were reported when users tried to Record and stream NVENC applications not working. This has now been fixed.

• Flickering issue during gameplay for Witcher 3 Wild Hunt and Far Cry 5 has now been fixed.

Apart from the long list of fixes released in the latest driver update, there are also some known issues for Windows 10 users with temporary workarounds.

• Single GPU response slows down after enabling/disabling SLI, requiring a system reboot.
• You will notice Random DPC violation error when using multiple GPUs on motherboards with PLX chips.
