NVIDIA GeForce 526.47 WHQL driver is available for download


A few days ago, NVIDIA released a brand new driver for its graphics cards. According to the release notes, the NVIDIA GeForce 526.47 WHQL driver offers optimal performance in Sackboy: A Big Adventure. Furthermore, it offers support for Victoria 3, and WRC Generations – The FIA WRC Official Game.

This new driver packs the hotfix for Cyberpunk 2077. Additionally, addresses some performance issues in Minecraft Java Edition on the RTX 30 series.

However, this driver has some issues with Forza Horizon 5 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. According to the green team, players may experience rainbow-like artifacts in Forza Horizon 5 after extended gameplay. On the other hand, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has some flashing corruption issues. Thus, if you are currently playing these two games, we suggest avoiding this driver.

You can download the NVIDIA GeForce 526.47 WHQL driver from here. Below you can also find its complete changelog.
