On the last day of the month, Nvidia is releasing the fourth game-ready driver for October 2023. Today, there are improvements for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III, Jusant, RoboCop: Rogue City, and Desynced. There are also more new games with DLSS 3 and six new G-Sync compatible monitors.
Improvements and DLSS 3 for six new games
The fall, which is full of new games, also affects many new graphics drivers. The GeForce 546.01 WHQL released today marks Nvidia’s fourth new GPU driver for gamers in October and is specifically optimized for the new Call of Duty game. Modern Warfare III won’t be released until November 7, but will be playable starting Thursday for impatient pre-orders. GeForce users can look forward to DLSS Supersolution as well as DLAA, DLSS Frame Generation, and Nvidia Reflex. However, the GPU manufacturer doesn’t have any preliminary benchmark results ready.
Things are different with Don’t Nod’s Jusant climber, which also features DLSS Super and DLSS Frame Generation resolution.
Nvidia is also providing benchmarks with DLSS Supersolution and DLSS Frame Generation for first-person shooter RoboCop: Rogue City, which is also implemented in Unreal Engine 5 and will be released on November 2nd.
