Intel had some problems with their early drivers for their Arc Alchemist cards. And Nvidia took the opportunity to turn its nose up at all of this with a new video.
Nvidia is a confident company. And in the manufacturer’s latest video, the Greens don’t hesitate to tout the (rightly so) advantages of graphics drivers. With that kind of statement as a bridgehead”Since their release in May 2014, NVIDIA GeForce Game Ready drivers have been best in class“.
A statement to show the muscles
The following can be found on the Nvidia website:
Since launching the program in 2014, NVIDIA has launched more than 150 Pilot Game Ready for the daily support of over 400 games. In 2021 alone, we released 20 Game Ready drivers supporting 75 games. In addition to the compatible titles that we have in our Article on graphics drivers and in our release notes, we have dedicated teams for Unreal Engine, Unity, and other cutting-edge development engines. Therefore, the thousands of independent PC games released every year that rely solely on the tools and features of these engines work perfectly as soon as they are released.
A tedious build process for Nvidia
Creating pilots is a permanent job and for those who are interested, the manufacturer not only goes into detail about the topic in the video above, but also via this long statement. The numbers are pretty staggering, see instead:
So the solution is: a huge automated test matrix that more than covers 4,500 GPU, CPU, RAM, and OS configurations using 2012 hardware. We test every game and driver with these desktop and laptop configurations to maximize the reliability of game-ready drivers and games.
Now you know a little more about the work involved!
