NVIDIA has released its GeForce Game Ready 442.74 driver. It includes day-one support for id Software’s DOOM Eternal, which officially launches tomorrow.
On PC, you can experience DOOM Eternal’s visceral action at higher levels of detail, higher resolutions, and higher framerates, on high refresh rate monitors, which offer clearer, smoother, more responsive gameplay. Paired with a GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, you can hit a glorious 200 FPS with every single game setting maxed out, for the highest-fidelity DOOM Eternal experience money can buy, with incredible visual clarity, target tracking and acquisition, and minimal input latency.
Users who want to play at the highest visual settings (2160p / 60 FPS / Ultra-Nightmare or 1440p / 120 FPS / Ultra-Nightmare) will need an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti GPU, Intel Core i9-9900K (or better) or AMD Ryzen 7 3700X (or better) CPU, and 16 GB of RAM.
