Today, NVIDIA has announced the availability of a new version of its Quadro Graphics drivers, namely version 364.51, which adds support for Vulkan 3D API, as well as Dynamic Super Resolution (DSR) compatibility for SLI configurations with a GSync monitor.

In addition to that, the present release also supports SLI for YUV422 at 4k and YUV420 with 12-bpc at any resolution, and updates the list of SLI-certified motherboards and systems for workstation SLI support.

Moreover, the Power Saving feature on Windows 10 configurations now puts the GPU in the OFF state and sets video memory to self-refresh mode when the monitor is blanked or inactive.

When it comes to compatibility, version 364.51 is suitable for both 32- and 64-bit variants of Microsoft’s Windows 7, 8, 8.1, and 10 operating systems. Also, NVIDIA has rolled out Quadro SDI packages that support Windows Vista and 7 platforms.

As for installation, simply save and run the appropriate package for your system configuration, wait for all files required to be extracted, and follow the on-screen instructions for a complete and successful upgrade.

Last but not least, if the wizard doesn’t automatically ask for permission to reboot the computer, make sure to perform this task manually to allow all changes to take effect properly.

That said, download NVIDIA Quadro Graphics Driver 364.51, apply it, and constantly check our website to be aware when a newer version is available for your system.
