DX12 Ultimate is only 2000 series cards at the moment right? Or do they even support it?
 
Additionally, this driver supports Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduling when used with the Windows 10 May 2020 Update.
This is the good news I was looking for.
 
this and the release prior to this one screw up Metro Exodus on my PC.

Symptoms:

- audio buzzing (I'm using the 5.1 audio block on the MoBo)
- game lockup (hard restart required to clear)

I went back to 445.87 whql and all runs well

MSI B450 Tomahawk Max
R5-2600
2x8GB Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3000
ASUS ROG Strix GTX 1660 Ti Advanced
 
How would the GPU driver cause audio buzzing with the on board?

If you roll back the driver does it indeed stop buzzing?
 
ran Exodus for about 1/2 hour then it froze again - EPIC Fatal Crash window opened ...

they has problems for a while with crashes ... seems to be the case again at least for me. Pity, was a fun game to play
 
I am going to try the download since the GeForce Experience update keeps failing for me.
 


I updated Windows tonight to 2004 and Metro Exodus ran fine, no more freezing/crashing but when I opened graphics Settings I see the following and as you can see I can't go any further with it ... there's no "Change Default Graphics Settings" link. I can manually add apps from the Microsoft Store setting but the "Change Default Graphics Settings" link still did not show
