The Nvidia 418.43 display driver is available now and comes with support for three new Nvidia GPUs, including the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 with Max-Q Design, and Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 with Max-Q Design. Owners of these GPUs will need to upgrade to the Nvidia 418.43 driver to use them on GNU/Linux or FreeBSD systems (Solaris not supported). Apart from the new GPU support, the Nvidia 418.43 graphics driver adds initial support for G-SYNC compatible displays, support for Nvidia optical flow, as well as support for stereo presentation in the Vulkan driver. Additionally, the new display driver ships with the Nvidia Video Codec SDK 9.0, which adds support for Turing NVENC/NVDEC and several NvEncodeAPI improvements.
