GeForce Game Ready Driver 580.88 - WHQL is here, and in addition to adding day one support for Mafia: The Old Country, which is out on August 8, it fixes several bugs alongside adding 62 new G-SYNC Compatible gaming displays. Mafia: The Old Country, from Hangar 13 and 2K, is the latest entry in the long-running crime-saga series, with the action taking place in 1900s Sicily.
The Unreal-powered title will require a decently specced rig to run, with the minimum GPU for 1080p with upscaling listed as the GeForce RTX 2070. And that's the minimum, with the developers recommending PC players jump in with a GeForce RTX 3080 Ti or equivalent graphics card. On the plus side, GeForce gamers have access to DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, DLSS Frame Generation, DLSS Super Resolution, and NVIDIA Reflex to boost performance, fidelity, and responsiveness.
The latest driver also adds support for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's DLSS 4 update, which brings the technology to one of the most talked about and celebrated games of the year. Outside of game support, GeForce Game Ready Driver 580.88 also adds a whopping 62 new G-SYNC Compatible displays, which is a seal of approval that you're going to get a fantastic baseline Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) experience.
With displays from Acer, AOC, ASUS, GIGABYTE, LG, MSI, Philips, Samsung, and ViewSonic covered in this update, you can find the complete list of models and specs covering size, resolution, panel technology, and VRR range below.
Finally, GeForce Game Ready Driver 580.88 also fixes several Gaming and General Bugs, covering titles and apps like Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered, World of Warcraft, Cyberpunk 2077, and Blender. There are even a few black screens and flickering issues resolved related to specific Samsung and LG displays.
