Nvidia launches 460.79 WHQL driver to provide optimization for Cyberpunk 2077 and Minecraft

by · Published · Updated

Nvidia has now released the 460.79 WHQL drivers version. This time the driver is mainly for Cyberpunk 2077. The company said that if players are going to play “Cyberpunk 2077” games, it is best to immediately upgrade to the latest version of the driver to obtain the best performance.

According to Nvidia, the new version of the driver will bring Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) and ray tracing support to the game, of course, only if the graphics card used by the user supports the above functions.

In addition to the optimization support for “Cyberpunk 2077”, this version of the driver also optimizes “Minecraft” and also provides DLSS support.

Changelog

Image Sharpening Feature
NVIDIA Control Panel Image sharpening controls, including GPU upscaling, are introduced in the
R440 driver. Currently, the following limitations apply.

  • Scaling is not supported on MSHybrid systems.
  • HDR displays driven by pre-Turing GPUs will not support scaling
  • Scaling will not work with VR
  • Scaling will not work with displays using YUV420 format.
  • Scaling uses aspect ratio scaling and will not use integer scaling
  • Sharpening will not work with HDR displays
  • GPU scaling engages when games are played only in full-screen mode, and not in windowed
    or borderless windowed mode.
  • Some G-SYNC displays have a 6-tap/64-phase scaler which scales better than that offered by
    Turing’s 5-tap/32-phase scaler.
  • To avoid accidentally triggering scaling by applications or DWM, first change to the desired (<
    native) resolution from the NVIDIA Control Panel and then launch the application.
  • Turing’s 5-tap upscaler may not engage on certain monitors depending on the monitor’s
    vblank timing.
  • Turing’s 5-tap upscaler may not engage if the input resolution is greater than 2560px in either
    the x or y dimension.
  • Scaling is turned off automatically when switching display devices.
  • “Restore Defaults” option in the control panel currently does not revert the upscaling
    resolution
