Today, NVIDIA has released their latest Game Ready driver,  397.64, which contains optimizations for Conan Exiles, Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire and Destiny 2’s latest Warmind expansion.

It also contains the hotfix for GTX 1060 issues from last week and is WHQL-certified.

The new 397.64 Game Ready driver comes with fixes for a host of prior bugs, such as crashes upon exiting Starcraft 2, stuttering in Netflix, and the lack of functionality from MSAA enabled through the Nvidia Control Panel.

New SLI profiles for Kingdom Come: Deliverance and GRIP are included with the driver, along with support for Microsoft Surface Books.

There’s still a few smaller issues remaining, and a few new problems. There are reports of Wolfenstein II crashing since the update landed, some issues with Shadowplay / Share working intermittently, and also Nvidia Surround glitching in Call of Duty: WWII.

If you’re a heavy user of those two games or need stable Shadowplay, maybe it’s worth waiting on upgrading to see if NVIDIA fixes them in the next update.

The 397.64 WHQL-certified drivers can be downloaded via the GeForce Experience app, or via the links down below. The complete release notes are available here.
