Voilà un bond dans le temps avec le nouveau pilote GeForce de NVIDIA. En effet, les derniers pilotes en date du fabricant étaient les 472.12 WHQL publiés le 20 septembre. Et nous sautons directement vers le pilote graphique WHQL GeForce 496.13. Contrairement à AMD qui a publié son pilote Radeon Adrenalin 21.10.1 avec un support de Windows 11, NVIDIA n’a rien publié pour le moment à destination du nouveau système d’exploitation de Microsoft. De plus, le pilote 496.13 WHQL ne contient que la version DCH du pilote et ne comporte pas de versions pour Windows 7/8/8.1.
Du ménage dans les cartes graphiques avec le pilote NVIDIA GeForce 496.13 WHQL
On retrouve une grosse partie de la mise à jour du pilote à destination des jeux vidéo qui gagnent un support Game Ready. Cela concerne Back 4 Blood, qui utilise le NVIDIA DLSS pour augmenter les performances jusqu’à 46% en 4K.
Le support du DLSS est également apporté à neuf autres titres comme Baldur’s Gate 3, Chivalry 2, Crysis Remastered Trilogy, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Sword and Fairy 7 et Swords of Legends Online.
NVIDIA profite également de ce nouveau pilote pour alléger celui-ci de quelques cartes graphiques disposant d’une architecture Kepler. Cela concerne donc les GeForce GTX 780 Ti, GTX 780, GTX 770, GTX 760, GT 740, GT 730, GTX 690, GTX 680, GTX 670 , GTX 660 Ti, GTX 660, GTX 650 Ti et GTX 630.
