We called it a few weeks ago. And now it's official. Nvidia will unleash one final major driver release for its Maxwell, Pascal, and Volta graphics architectures. And that'll be it. In somewhat better news, Nvidia has also announced plans to keep releasing Windows 10 Game Ready Drivers for all RTX GPUs until October 2026, a year after Microsoft itself will have given up on the OS.
"NVIDIA will announce that after a final Game Ready Driver (GRD) release in October 2025, GeForce GPUs based on Maxwell, Pascal, and Volta architectures will transition to receiving quarterly security updates for the next three years (through October 2028)," Nvidia told us in a statement.
