Today we posted our first Release 270 WHQL-certified driver for GeForce GPUs, including an equivalent Verde driver for notebook PCs. Version 270.61 is available for download on GeForce.com.

For those that previously installed the v270.51 beta which included the new NVIDIA Update software, you will automatically get a notification on your PC for this new WHQL-certified driver. If you haven’t already seen Tom Petersen’s video featuring NVIDIA Update, you can check it out here:

Let us know your thoughts about NVIDIA Update here on the GeForce forums.

Release 270 has nice performance optimizations that provide up to 6x the gaming performance. You can read details about the gains and the new Release 270 features on GeForce.com.

Enjoy the v270.61 drivers and stay tuned. Next month I’ll be back on the blog to tell you about our upcoming Release 275 drivers.
