Nvidia has just released a brand new Driver update 466.27 that adds support for Metro Exodus PC Enhanced Edition, which adds additional ray-traced effects and Nvidia DLSS 2.0. Shortly after the game received a release date announcement, Nvidia has followed and escorted it properly.
This Nvidia Driver update also adds support for DirectX 12 Agility SDK and tackles some other game-related issues. Rainbow Six Siege has received some NVIDIA Reflex tweaks due to performance-related issues and should no longer have the same problems as before. Games on HDMI 2.1 monitors should no longer be capped due to a bug, even when Vertical Sync is set to off.
