Are you tired of sifting through endless driver updates just to find the ones that actually improve your content-creation software? NVIDIA has heard your frustrations and has released their new “Creator-Ready” Drivers. These drivers are specifically designed to bring reliable performance upgrades to some of the biggest content-creation software on the market.
But what exactly do these new drivers do? While NVIDIA’s blog post about the new drivers doesn’t provide much information, the download page claims some decent improvements on the RTX 2080, including up to 13% in Blender Cycles and up to 9% in Adobe Photoshop CC. However, without more information regarding the types of tests being performed, or the specifications of the computers being used in the test, these results have to be taken with a grain of salt.
One thing that is clear is that NVIDIA is taking a new approach with Creator updates moving forward. Rather than following the breakneck pace of major video game releases, NVIDIA will slow down major patches to the Creator updates to ensure maximum stability for the supported software. This means that special care and time is taken to simulate common workflows of creative professionals, ensuring the fastest and most stable performance possible.
While the initial release of the Creator Drivers might seem a little lackluster, the opportunities opening up in the near future are exciting. Better collaboration between hardware and software developers means it’s only a matter of time before some truly revolutionary changes develop for us filmmakers. So, if you’re a content creator looking for improved GPU stability in common creative tasks, the Creator-Ready Drivers might just be worth checking out.
