NVIDIA has released the GeForce Game Ready 461.92 WHQL driver. The latest driver delivers an optimal experience in the latest games and introduces optimizations and improvements for NVIDIA Reflex in the popular multiplayer FPS Overwatch, developed by the Blizzard team. Launched last week in the game’s public testing region (PTR), NVIDIA Reflex is designed to improve player competitiveness by reducing system latency.

NVIDIA Reflex [is] a free update for many popular competitive games that reduces system latency to further improve player competitiveness, NVIDIA said in a post announcing the availability of this technology in Overwatch. Reach targets faster, react quicker, and improve accuracy by simply enabling NVIDIA Reflex in game settings.

To participate in the NVIDIA Reflex public test, you must have an Overwatch for Windows license associated with your Battle.net account that is in good standing (that is, it has not been banned or suspended). After installing the Overwatch PTR client and downloading the 11. Mars, open the game, go to Settings, Video Settings and enable NVIDIA Reflex. With the NVIDIA Reflex feature, the game becomes instantly more responsive, increasing your chances of winning online.

The new NVIDIA GeForce Game Ready 461.92 WHQL driver can be downloaded from GeForce Experience. The release notes, which contain a complete list of bug fixes and open issues in this driver, can be found here.
