NVIDIA has announced the availability of a new GeForce graphics driver, namely version 446.14, which adds the latest performance optimizations, profiles, and bug fixes for Valorant, and ensures optimal support for Minecraft Dungeons, Disintegration, and Crucible.

The current update also adds Variable Rate Supersampling (VRSS) support for Onward, improves Overwatch game stability, removes Monster Hunter World Iceborneartifacts, fixes Resident Evil 3 Remake flickering objects, and ensures F1 2019 doesn’t randomly crash.

Moreover, build 446.14 corrects higher GPU usage for notebooks with Maxwell generation GPUs, make sure games do not show very bright when HDR is enabled, prevents Corsair iCUE program from triggering Geforce Overlay, and resolves other issues as highlighted in the Release Notes below.

Regarding compatibility, the present release is suitable for both desktop and notebook configurations, but only the ones running under a 64-bit variant of Microsoft Windows 7, 8, 8.1, or 10 operating systems. Also, there are two files available for Windows 10: one Standard and one DCH version.

Therefore, if you have encountered these issues, save the appropriate file for your computer’s operating system, run it, wait for all data required for the installation to be extracted, and follow all instructions displayed on the screen for a complete and successful upgrade.

Once finished, make sure to perform a system reboot to allow all changes to take effect properly. If this task isn’t requested automatically by the wizard, it would be a good idea to carry it out manually so that any possible problems are avoided.

That said, download NVIDIA GeForce Graphics Driver 446.14, apply it on your device, and always check our website to stay “updated one minute ago.”
