Nvidia Announces Driver Support Changes
Nvidia has made a significant announcement regarding its upcoming Release 580 driver. This new driver will terminate support for several GPU architectures, including Maxwell, Pascal, and Volta. As a result, popular graphics cards such as the GTX 700, 900, and 10 series, along with the Titan V, will no longer receive updates. This change impacts many users who rely on these older models for gaming and other graphics-intensive tasks.
While existing drivers will still function, the lack of Game Ready updates, performance optimizations, and security improvements post-580 launch could affect overall performance. Users should be aware that the newer Turing-based GTX 16 series remains untouched by these changes, offering a viable alternative for those looking to upgrade.
