Game Ready
Provides the optimal gaming experience for Middle-earth: Shadow of War, The Evil Within 2, and Forza Motorsport 7
Game Ready VR

New Features:
Added support for OpenGL 4.61
Added NVIDIA GameStream support for HDR under Windows 10. See “Open Issues in Version 387.92 WHQL” on page 17 for a description of bug
200349552 that affects this feature.
Added Fast Sync support for SLI: Fast Sync under SLI is available only on the following 'bridged' SLI configurations:
NVIDIA Maxwell GPUs: Any resolution less than 4k
NVIDIA Pascal & later GPUs: Any resolution
Implemented improvement in full-screen Vulkan applications for 32-bit Windows
swapchains. This optimization will cause more events that trigger an out-of-date swapchain, such
as when entering or leaving full-screen mode (typically by pressing Alt+tab).
Applications that do not properly respond to the VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_DATE_KHR
return code may not function properly when these events occur. See the WSI
Swapchain section of the Vulkan specification.
Added support for the DirectX Intermediate Language (DXIL):
Includes full support for DirectX 12 Shader Model 6.0, features such as Wavemath,
and the DirectX Shader Compiler.
Supported only on NVIDIA Kepler and later GPUs.
Fixed bugs:
[SLI][Intel X299]: Low GPU usage resulting in poor performance occurs with the X299.
