Today, NVIDIA released the Game Ready WHQL Driver 471.11, and it now officially supports Windows 10 21H1, the May 2021 Update, for the first time.

NVIDIA GeForce driver 471.11 has brought support for NVIDIA DLSSNVIDIA Reflex, and ray tracing features to DOOM Eternal, Escape From Tarkov, LEGO Builder’s Journey, and RUST (coming in July).

NVIDIA demonstrates the Reflex Low Latency Mode Coming to Escape From Tarkov in the video below.

As with any release, there are known issues with this driver, and NVIDIA has highlighted the following issues on Windows 10:

  • [Batman Arkham Knight]: The game crashes when turbulence smoke is enabled.
  • [YouTube]: Video playback stutters while scrolling down the YouTube page.
  • DPC latency is higher when color mode is set to 8-bit color compared to 10-bit color.

Microsoft released the Windows 10 KB5003690 Preview cumulative update yesterday to fix performance, stuttering, and frame rate drops when playing games. Windows 10 users can install this update to see if it helps resolves some of these issues.
