NVIDIA rolled out the GeForce 596.36 WHQL Game Ready driver today, timed with the launch of Conan Exiles Enhanced on May 5. The update brings DLSS Multi‑Frame Generation, DLSS Super Resolution and NVIDIA Reflex to the Unreal Engine 5 title, promising smoother frame rates and sharper visuals for the survival‑craft game. It also cleared WHQL certification, so Windows PCs receive it through the normal driver update flow.

Beyond the game launch, the driver adds official support for the newly announced RTX 5070 12 GB laptop GPU, which ships with 24 GB of GDDR7 memory. Release notes also list fixes for texture flashing in God of War: Ragnarok, clothing flicker in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, grass pop‑in in The Crew Motorfest, plus H.264 playback artifacts and a Blender 5.0.1 EEVEE rendering glitch.

Gamers with RTX 5070 laptops will see immediate performance gains, while owners of older GeForce cards can still benefit from the DLSS and Reflex enhancements in Conan Exiles Enhanced. By bundling a slew of bug fixes with fresh feature support, NVIDIA keeps its driver ecosystem tight ahead of the summer release cycle, ensuring a smoother PC gaming experience right now.
