NVIDIA today announced the availability of the Creator Ready Driver program, which improves the performance and reliability of creative applications. The first version of Creator Ready Driver (version 419.67) is optimized for all the best creative applications, including a number of applications that have been accelerated for NVIDIA RTX graphics cards.
Detailed summary on the following link.
NVIDIA RTX graphics cards have given video editors, 3D animators, broadcasters, graphic designers and photographers around the world a major productivity boost through hardware ray tracing acceleration, AI-enhanced creative workflows and processing advanced video.
NVIDIA is launching a new Creator Ready Driver program to provide artists, creators and game developers with better performance and reliability when working with creative applications.
To achieve the highest level of reliability, Creator Ready drivers are subjected to extensive testing to match multiple revisions of the best creative apps. NVIDIA teams also perform exhaustive multi-application testing for every type of creative workflow, evaluating the quality of drivers the same way creators do in their day-to-day work.
