PC gamers could soon have a new tool in their arsenal that could eliminate the need to tweak graphics settings. NVIDIA is testing out a product called GeForce Experience that’s designed to automate all of your settings and resolution while playing a video game. The tool is a cloud-based service that will analyze the hardware you’re playing on and make adjustments accordingly, from anti-aliasing to shadow options, for the best gaming experience on any given machine.

The company has said that GeForce Experience will require minimal technical expertise for the gamers who use it, claiming that the goal of the tool is to offer as simple an experience as possible. After retrieving optimal settings from the cloud, GeForce Experience applies the changes and saves them directly to your game’s config file. It will also automatically deliver driver updates.

While the ability to tinker and perfect graphics settings is a point of pride for many PC gamers, the more casual players will probably find this tool a huge help once it goes public. Getting your graphics exactly right can involve a lot of guesswork, but playing under less than ideal conditions can really hinder the enjoyment of a game. NVIDIA certainly has the cred to make GeForce Experience a powerful and useful tool; after all, its graphics cards are often contenders for gamers looking to upgrade their computer performance.

Nvidia just made GeForce Now so much better

Nvidia has just added adaptive refresh rates to GeForce Now, its cloud gaming service. The new tech, dubbed Cloud G-Sync, works on PCs with Nvidia GPUs first and foremost , but also on Macs. These include Macs with Apple Silicon, as well as older models with Intel CPUs and AMD GPUs. On the Windows PC side more broadly, Intel and AMD GPUs will not be supported right now. Nvidia has also made one more change to GeForce Now that makes it a lot easier to try out -- it introduced day passes.

Cloud G-Sync's variable refresh rate (VRR) feature will sync your monitor's refresh rate to match the frame rates you're hitting while gaming with GeForce Now. Nvidia's new cloud solution also uses Reflex to lower latency regardless of frame rates. Enabling VRR in GeForce Now should provide a major boost by reducing screen tearing and stuttering, improving the overall gaming experience on PCs and laptops that normally can't keep up with some titles. To pull this off, Nvidia uses its proprietary RTX 4080 SuperPODs.

Modern-day content creation takes many forms - from 3D, video editing, and live streaming to graphic design, photography, and game development - and with it comes powerful creator advancements and tools. For example, AI technology like generative AI is helping creators enhance their processes, and what they can create is more accomplished now than ever before. The same is true for game development, graphic design, and similar forms of media. As the complexity and quality of these media increase, so do the challenges and demands for content creators, who need the ultimate performance and efficiency to power through even the most demanding creative workflows.

That’s where NVIDIA Studio comes into play. The company’s hardware and software platform utilizes proprietary technologies to make creative work easier and more efficient than ever and in a manageable format. Featuring NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 40 Series laptop GPUs, NVIDIA Studio laptops offer the ultimate platform for content creation, from the Razer Blade 14 – available now – or the upcoming Acer Predator Triton Neo 16, Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 and more.

Nvidia just fixed a major issue with its GPUs

If you've been unhappy with the performance of your graphics card lately, you might want to check out Nvidia's latest beta driver. This is a hotfix driver, which is pretty unusual for Nvidia, but it can be helpful if you've been dealing with micro-stuttering, both in games and on the desktop. The update addresses four issues in total, but to get it, you'll have to dig a little deeper than the standard path of updating your drivers.

Nvidia typically bundles bug fixes with its usual Game Ready drivers, as urgent hotfixes tend to be few and far between. However, this time, Nvidia chose not to wait any longer and pushed four updates for its GPU range. The new driver version, 551.46, may fix annoying stuttering issues.
