NVIDIA released its second “Game Ready” GeForce drivers in a span of a week, with version 358.91 WHQL. These drivers are “game-ready” for Fallout 4, Star Wars: Battlefront, and StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void. This means game optimizations, SLI profiles, and GeForce Experience optimal settings for the three games. This closely follows last week’s GeForce 358.87 WHQL release, which was game-ready for Call of Duty: Black Ops III.

AMD has released Catalyst 15.11 Beta drivers that contain performance optimizations for Call of Duty: Black Ops III. The beta drivers can be downloaded here and contain eight other bug fixes. For example Ashes of the Singularity shouldn’t crash on some AMD Radeon 300-series cards now or fail to launch on video cards that have just 2GB of video memory. AMD Also fixed a timeout error that was discovered on Star Wars: Battlefront and Hitman Pro. These are all pretty big bug fixes, so it looks like this driver is a must. This driver still has a number of known issues though. The largest issue is going to impact those playing Black Ops III today with an AMD Radeon CrossFire multi-GPU setup. Those folks playing in DirectX11 mode with AMD Crossfire enabled might see a flickering issue.

AMD Radeon Software Crimson Edition drivers are still said to be coming later this month after AMD completes the brand new driver package. Could this be the last Catalyst driver launch?

NVIDIA’s GTX 980Ti certainly isn’t a stranger to these pages but after reviewing nearly a half dozen examples we were secretly hoping for something more. Granted, Zotac’s AMP! Extreme posted some absolutely mind-bending performance numbers and ASUS’ STRIX OC ended up being one of the best graphics cards we’ve reviewed all year but after a while, all of the air-cooled cards ended up feeling eerily similar. This is why MSI’s GTX 980 Ti Sea Hawk is like a breath of fresh air so-to-speak since it boasts an integrated water cooler.

NVIDIA released its latest “Game Ready” driver. The new GeForce 355.98 WHQL comes ready for “Killing Floor 2.” This includes optimization, SLI profiles, and optimal GeForce Experience settings. Killing Floor 2 takes advantage of PhysX Flex to render “realistic” gore (blood, guts) effects in the 6-player cooperative shooter. The rest of the driver’s change-log is built on the previous R355 drivers.

ASUS has just released its new hybrid air/liquid cooled video card based on the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB GPU. The ASUS ROG Poseidon Platinum GTX 980 Ti can be run with liquid cooling to make this a cool and quiet GTX 980 Ti and hopefully give us some good overclocks. We’ll test it, and find out how it does on air and liquid.
