An update to Nvidia's official "Unix graphics feature deprecation schedule" has been spotted on Reddit. Long story short, the next 580 series of Unix GPU drivers will be the last to fully support Maxwell, Pascal, and Volta architectures. So, what does this actually mean for gamers? For instance, does it imply that the days are numbered for driver support for those GPUs in Windows?
Firstly, Maxwell encompasses GeForce GTX 7 and 9 Series, while Pascal is the architecture on which GTX 10 Series graphics cards were based. Note that the likes of the GTX 1650 and GTX 1660 are actually based on the newer Turing architecture, which isn't included in this deprecation.
