  New Features
  NVIDIA RTXTM Technology: Developer preview for NVIDIA RTX ray tracing technology for DirectX 12. NVIDIA RTX supports the Microsoft DirectX Raytracing (DXR) API on NVIDIA Volta GPUs. In order to get started with developing DirectX Raytracing applications accelerated by RTX, you'll need the following:
  - NVIDIA Volta GPU
  - NVIDIA driver version 396 or higher
  - Windows 10 RS4
  - Microsoft's DXR developer package, consisting of DXR-enabled D3D runtimes, HLSL compiler, and headers
  Vulkan 1.1: This driver release provides full support for the new Vulkan 1.1 API and passes the Vulkan Conformance Test Suite (CTS) version 1.1.0.3.
  HD Audio: This driver adds new sample rates 32 kHz, 88.2 kHz, and 176.4 kHz to the HDMI device for all GPUs.
  Display Driver Standalone Installer: The standalone display driver installer now removes extracted files after installing the driver, leaving a smaller footprint on the hard drive.
  Display Driver Libraries: Added new libraries (nvdlist.dll and nvdlistx.dll) to support Optimus and MSHybrid notebooks.
  NVDECODE API: Added a new API that lets the client reconfigure the decoder resolution and other post processing parameters (such as the display resolution, cropping rectangle, and aspect ratio of the decoded frame) without having to destroy and recreate the decoder instance. This API is useful in scenarios where the decoder instance initialization time takes up a significant portion of the overall decode execution time; for example, in back-to-back decoding of multiple short clips of different resolutions. The new API will be included in Video Codec SDK 8.2, which is expected to release in late Q2 2018.
  
  Application SLI Profiles
  Added or updated the following SLI profiles:
  - Descenders
  - Frostpunk
  - Warhammer: Vermintide 2
  - Far Cry 5
  
  3D Vision Profiles
  Added or updated the following 3D Vision profiles:
  - Descenders - Good
  - EVE Valkyrie - Warzone - Good
  
  Software Module Versions
  - nView - 148.92
  - HD Audio Driver - 1.3.37.1
  - NVIDIA PhysX System Software - 9.17.0524
  - GeForce Experience - 3.13.1.30
  - CUDA - 9.2
  
  Discontinued Support
  - 32-bit Operating Systems: Beginning with Release 396, NVIDIA is no longer releasing Game Ready drivers for 32-bit operating systems for any GPU architecture.
  - NVIDIA Fermi GPUs: Beginning with Release 396, the NVIDIA Game Ready driver no longer supports NVIDIA GPUs based on the Fermi architecture.
