Nvidia GeForce Game Ready 430.64 WHQL Driver Released

Nvidia 430.64 WHQL Driver

Following the release of the most recent Nvidia drivers, an issue was discovered that caused the software to utilise far more CPU usage than normal. While a hot-fix was applied, it wasn’t exactly pushed out heavily by Nvidia either.

As such, with the release of the latest official drivers, it’s important for users to make the update. There is, of course, a little more to it than that, however, with a number of upcoming game releases given the driver optimisation treatment.

Where Can I Get the Latest Drivers?

If you have the Nvidia GeForce application already installed, a quick check of it should prompt you to make the update which, as above, is clearly highly-advisable if you already installed the last one.

If you would, however, prefer to make the update manually, you can visit the official driver update website via the link here!
