NVIDIA has released WHQL-certified Game Ready Driver 610.74, arriving July 7 for both Windows 10 and 11. The update brings targeted DLSS and ray tracing performance tuning for DOOM: The Dark Ages and Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced. Beyond game support, the patch quietly resolves a Smooth Motion flickering bug in Tencent Meeting across supported RTX and GTX GPUs. You can grab the 979 MB driver directly from NVIDIA’s official download page starting today.

NVIDIA Releases Game Ready Driver 610.74 for Windows 10 and 11

Following NVIDIA's typical update cadence, the company has pushed out Game Ready Driver 610.74. It's WHQL-certified, supports both Windows 10 and 11, and clocks in at 979.17 MB. The driver drops on Tuesday, July 7th. Keep in mind that Windows 10 64-bit remains fully supported. If you've got an RTX card from the last couple of generations, this one's for you.

The headline draw here is game support. NVIDIA says the driver has been tuned specifically for DOOM: The Dark Ages | Revelations and Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced. Both titles get explicit DLSS and full ray tracing pipeline optimization. The long wait is over for anyone tracking the DOOM launch window, though we're still a few days out from the actual release. Driver optimizations like this are usually the first reliable performance baseline gamers get before launch. That means you'll get the intended performance targets without digging into custom settings.

Next, the stability notes. The changelog is deliberately short. The main fix addresses a flickering issue in Tencent Meeting when Smooth Motion is turned on globally. It's a niche bug, but if you use that conferencing app with the feature enabled, you've probably already noticed it. I'll admit, I wasn't expecting to see a Tencent Meeting fix in a major NVIDIA driver release. It's a quiet win for remote workers who rely on Smooth Motion.

What's Actually in This Update

Compatibility runs deep. The supported list spans the entire GeForce RTX 50 family down to the 5050, plus the full RTX 40, 30, 20, and 16 series. Even the TITAN RTX isn't left out. If your GPU falls anywhere in that range, you're covered.

It's a straightforward quarterly refresh. Nothing wild. But the explicit DOOM optimization lands right as we head into July, which should help early adopters avoid the typical launch-week stutter. Head here to download the driver directly from NVIDIA's official page. Just make sure you're selecting the correct GPU model and your OS version before clicking install.
