Nvidia is launching the RTX 3080 Ti today, and the lucky individuals who will be able to grab a card have a driver waiting for them now with official support for their new GPU. The WHQL-certified 466.63 Game Ready release also has support for a couple of new games releasing soon and more Reflex integrations in its innards.
Those with Nvidia graphics waiting to pick up the upcoming titles Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 (June 4) and Chivalry 2 (June 8) can install this driver to get the most optimal performance. Moreover, the DLSS technology-introducing Prisms update that reached No Man"s Sky yesterday is now officially supported with this driver, though no details have been shared as to what changes can players expect.
