    Re: AMD and Nvidia release drivers optimised for Overwatch

    If I update, does this mean my drivers will no longer be optimised for any of my other games?

    All Gameready drivers are cumulative and will be included in all future releases.

    I think his comment was meant in jest... lol

    Also since I updated to this driver my BF4 graphics (normally run in Ultra) are now displaying weirdly... super shiny and bright lacking finer detail, or totally black on all landscape/models when viewing/looking from certain angles... very bizarre. doesn't affect BF3 that I can tell. If I drop the settings down to low/medium its fine.
    I didn't have time to explore the settings in finer variations.

    Weirdly enough, a number of my older games would no longer run on my existing drivers last night, popping up a notification that I need to update...!!

    I'm guessing that was a feature of the various launchers, though.
