The drivers also include optimization for “The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition” and “Obduction VR.”

You can download the new GeForce 375.70 WHQL drivers from GeForce Experience and GeForce.com.

AMD today released Radeon Software Crimson Edition 16.10.3, the month’s third release of the drivers. Version 16.10.3 addresses a “Titanfall 2″ intermittent game crash affecting AMD Graphics CoreNext GPUs (which is all of the GPUs under the current driver support branch). The rest of its feature-set appear to be consistent with the older Radeon Software Crimson Edition 16.10.2 drivers.
