NVIDIA is making it easier than ever to relive and share your most awesome gaming moments. Although the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti was the headliner for NVIDIA’s appearance at GDC 2017 last night, ShadowPlay Highlights stands to also make a big impression on gamers. ShadowPlay Highlights is a new feature incorporated within the GeForce Experience that automatically captures your most ruthless killing sprees or that fantastic headshot that you pulled off as the time expired on the game clock. According to NVIDIA, these moments are identified automatically and saved for posterity’s sake. “Whether they be the completion of an achievement, the besting of a boss, or a kill or death streak, so you can focus...

It seems as though the entire gaming world is ready for tomorrow’s release of Fallout 4. Earlier today, we learned that both GameStop and Best Buy are tossing in a free copy of Fallout 4 with the purchase of a new PlayStation 4 console. And a week ago, we learned of a killer Black Friday deal from Dell that will include an Xbox One Gears of War console bundle, an extra controller and a copy of Fallout 4 for the low, low price of $299. And now the folks at NVIDIA are looking out for Fallout fans on the PC side with a fresh GeForce Game Ready Driver that’s optimized for Fallout 4. The new driver, version 358.91, will allow you to jump into Fallout 4’s digital wasteland with the assurance that “you’ll...

Good things are coming to NVIDIA's GeForce Experience utility over the course of the next few months, things like the ability to stream games at 4K from your PC to your television and enhanced broadcasting. Early adopters who don't mind running pre-release software can sample a taste of these things and more through a new beta that NVIDIA's doling out today.One of the benefits of owning a high end graphics card or, even better, two of them in SLI is the ability to crank up the resolution in games to 4K for a better visual experience with a bigger field of view. It just so happens that NVIDIA's Android-powered SHIELD TV set-top box also supports 4K decoding, so why not marry to two?That's exactly...

Are you having trouble beating a level boss or figuring out an in-game puzzle? Invite one of your gaming buddies to lend a helping hand! It's one of a handful of nifty features NVIDIA implemented in its GeForce Experience Share, which is now available in early access beta form. The newest beta includes a new in-game overlay that makes it easy to record, share, and broadcast your epic gaming moments without leaving the game. Through the in-game overlay, gamers can use Shadowplay to capture a stream and then upload it to YouTube, broadcast to Twitch, or share with other players, all without having to minimize the game. There's also a GameStream Co-Op function that is likely to be popular with gamers....

To compliment today’s launch of the GeForce GTX 950, Nvidia is also announcing that they’ve taught their GeForce Experience software a few new tricks. Two and a half years ago when Nvidia debuted GeForce Experience, it carried a simple tagline: “Console Simplicity, PC Performance.” In its infancy, it merely analyzed your unique hardware and recommend ideal settings for a popular selection of games, targeting a perfect balance between performance and visual fidelity without the user needing to experiment with dozens of graphics tweaks. Since then, GeForce Experience has seen healthy growth with an install base of 65 million people. Along the way they’ve introduced some genuinely useful features...

When Nvidia unveiled its GeForce Experience application last year, AMD was quick to return fire, but the company's version of the Raptr software client lagged Nvidia's application in several areas. While both could be used to optimize a game for best performance, Raptr (nee Gaming Evolved) didn't have the same ability to record or stream in-game footage. The company claims to have solved that problem with version 4.0 of the Gaming Evolved App, with the new ability to broadcast to Twitch, record footage to the hard drive, optimize games at the push of a button, and with new support for webcam overlays and voice capturing. In short, Raptr appears to be baking in a lot of the features that GeForce...

PC gaming has long had a reputation for being more difficult to get into than consoles, due to the plethora of potential hardware combinations and the pitfalls of bargain-basement OEM systems. PC gamers are used to seeing minimum game specs that occasionally imply the marketing department lives in an alternate dimension, but the question of what the consumer experiences once they actually launch a title is almost never discussed. Some games err on the side of settings that maintain a high frame rate at the expense of quality, while others pick presets that could choke a sperm whale. It's almost never clear how these values are calculated and the detection algorithms leave much to be desired....
