Nvidia Driver 457.09 Now Available, CoD: Warzone Players with RTX 30 Series Should Avoid It

Nvidia has released a new driver that adds support for the RTX 3070 and adds support for Watch Dogs Legion. Despite the new features and additions, driver 457.09 raises slight issues with one video game, and that is CoD: Warzone. The RTX 30 series owners may see a drop in performance during gameplay, which is why Nvidia transparently posted this potential issue in the driver changelog.

In general, this update also introduces a number of Game Ready Driver Fixes, among which For Honor’s latest crash issue on RTX 30 series is addressed. While players that love CoD: Warzone and have the Battle Royale game in their primary focus during this time may need to avoid this driver update, For Honor players must install it, so we genuinely hope you’re not into both of those games at the time being.

For a complete breakdown of the changes, make sure you take a look at the section below:

Game Ready – This new Game Ready Driver provides support for Watch Dogs: Legion. In addition, this driver provides optimal day-1 support for DiRT 5, Ghostrunner, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered, and Xuan-Yuan Sword VII.

New Features and Other Changes

  • Added support for GeForce RTX 3070.
  • NVIDIA Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings: “Max Q Dynamic Boost” setting renamed to “Dynamic Boost”.
