    1. It’s had some reworks to the store, layout and a new map with two new heroes, but I wouldn’t cite it as a brand new game, or it’s visuals being revamped. I don’t know why there is even a new update in the driver for it, especially when a majority of the work was on the store/layout.

  1. So what problem/s existed prior to this update in order for them to have now increased GPU idling voltage?

  2. I have few month problem to update GeForce Experience. Installation start properly, but after few seconds it tells me that installation was not successful. I have to uninstall GeForce Experience and install it fresh. That works. Do somebody know where is the problem? Installation with admin account does not help too. Driver and other modules installation has no problem.
