Any way to run this game without updating drivers?

[flat_Lander1]

Why do i have to update my drivers just to launch the game? what for? is there any real benefit to it or is it just like always when you update your drivers and the game runs even worse or nothing changes

[jos]

the game won't even launch without the latest nvidia drivers

That is what drivers are there for,... you know... to make software run on hardware.
Why would you NOT update?

yeah usually games let you ignore this message but not this one. Why? because

why would you update if nothing changes 90% of the times and sometimes it makes everything even worse
i've had plenty of driver problems in my life on nvidia so no thanks i wont update my stable driver just to play 1 game, i'd rather not play it if thats my only option

Usually games also don't run on the bleeding edge of tech and their calls are actually already present.
Quite possible the irst Remix game needs stuff that older drivers simply did not have at all yet, let alone in a good working form.

This game uses the new RTX Remix thing and without downloading drivers for it simply won't work.

thats might be the case if so then i understand the need to update but if it is not like that then its stupid

They have slowed down the GPU with Spectre "protected" drivers over 2 years ago so chances are you already have them installed.

that was not gpu drivers but chipset, and mobo drivers and it comes already included anyway in new cpus (from intel 10th gen and further) and it slowed down only your CPU (also you can disable those updates on the older cpu's)

Yeah i know where to download but i want to know the reason, is it because there is no Remix features in the older drivers or is it because of smth else?

Imagine reading the thread you participate in.

Related, but unrelated, nvidia driver also got slowed down. ( and it's not the chipset but windows. Cpus got hardware patched on their side too yes but not everything)

Just because you don't notice changes doesn't mean they don't exist. I usually don't notice changes either, but a recent update did give me a significant performance boost in Rock Band 3 on RPCS3. They wouldn't make you reinstall completely unchanged drivers for no reason.
