Nvidia’s elderly item supervisor Sean Pelletier took a stab at AMD and also Intel previously this early morning on Twitter, with a spread sheet flaunting just how qualified Nvidia’s chauffeur advancement group is contrasted to the competitors. The spread sheet demonstrates how lots of completely licensed, non-beta chauffeur updates Nvidia has actually released over the previous 2 years, and also just how those updates include substantially much more video game assistance contrasted to AMD and also Intel. The Tweet discreetly slams Intel and also AMD’s absence of various chauffeur updates for its GPUs, and also recommends the firm’s chauffeur bundles are reduced top quality.

This is the 2nd time Nvidia has actually discreetly slammed its rivals over “poor” GPU chauffeur updates simply this year, and also this seems an expanding pattern from Nvidia. In a chauffeur advancement article previously this year, Nvidia truly prided itself in not-making beta vehicle drivers whatsoever. Ensuring to keep in mind that beta vehicle drivers are “mediocre” and also made with marginal screening. It’s a noticeable stab at AMD, that launches beta vehicle drivers freely.
Sean Pelletier exposes the number of WHQL-certified chauffeur updates all 3 GPU business have actually created in 2021 and also 2022, along with the variety of beta vehicle drivers each firm supplies. The spread sheet likewise considers the complete quantity of video games sustained with all chauffeur updates integrated.
In the listing, Nvidia triumphes by an astonishing price, with a total amount of 20 licensed vehicle drivers launched in 2021 and also 18 in 2022. This defeats AMD and also Intel’s updates integrated, with AMD draining 5 in 2021 and also 6 in 2022. Intel provided 9 in 2021 and also 6 in 2022 up until now. Nvidia likewise has both of its rivals vanquished in sustained titles, with 75 sustained in 2021 and also 69 in 2022. AMD has “simply” 37 sustained video games in 2021 and also 29 in 2022. Intel is available in last on this front, with simply 5 in 2021 and also 28 in 2022.
Yet to Nvidia’s annoyance, AMD defeats everybody by a landslide in regards to beta chauffeur launches, including 24 vehicle drivers in 2021 and also one more 19 in 2022. Intel at the same time had simply 5 beta launches in 2021, however obtains near to AMD’s 2022 numbers with 13.
Nvidia isn’t doing itself lots of supports right here by relating rather useless chauffeur launch patterns to total graphics dependability and also visual efficiency. Motorist updates and also game-ready assistance alone do not completely define just how performant or trusted a graphics card truly is. Ray mapping apart, AMD’s GPUs over the last pair generations have actually been rather affordable with Nvidia, regardless of what Nvidia declares regarding AMD’s vehicle drivers.
Its likewise worth stating that Nvidia has actually likewise launched numerous GPU chauffeur hotfixes over the previous year, to take care of debilitating pests and also problems in its game-ready vehicle drivers. So take Nvidia’s information wherefore you will.
