This update, among other things, adds support for VK_EXT_descriptor_heap, which should bring significant performance boost to Nvidia cards, once it's properly implemented.

How can anyone get excited over GPUs in 2026?

Like, what are you looking forward to at this point? Just enjoy what you have...

This is not a new GPU but a driver, so the GPU you have gives you more performance. But yeah buying a new GPU is crazy right now. Maybe used amd cards are still affordable.
