It’s not enough to pick up the latest and greatest GPU for your gaming system. Keeping up with driver updates is key to making sure you’re running your games as quickly as possible. Nvidia has launched its latest GeForce drivers, version 376.19, with improvements not only for some important games but with enhancements for virtual reality systems as well.

The improvements for the latest GeForce drivers include Game Ready Driver support for Oculus Touch launch titles. Touch is the newest controller for the Rift VR system and now Nvidia’s drivers have been updated to provide the optimal experience for games that support them.

The new drivers also provide new or improved 3D Vision profiles for a handful of games, including Dead Rising 4, Mars 2030, Serious Sam, and Superhot. Windows 10 improvements include resolving notebook G-Sync flickering issues and a fix for G-Sync pendulum demo issues. No Man’s Sky with Foundation Update 1.10 should no longer show severe texture corruption with SLI enabled.
