Intel accidentally reveals Windows 11 release date - Top features and changes in Windows 11 - Nvidia 471.41 driver

July 19, 2021

Hi folks, I had a bit of a long weekend but I've included this past week's round up of Microsoft news (in the Microsoft Weekly) and there's more news to check out on Neowin! Have a good one!

The week that's just ending has brought news relating to Inspire 2021, the ever-present Patch Tuesday, and even a small helping of gaming news. Be sure to catch up via our very handy overview.

At GDC 2021 today, Nvidia showed off a couple of ray tracing and DLSS demos that it ran on an ARM CPU paired with an RTX 3060. The first was a gaming demo while the second was a sample scene render.

The new Windows 11 operating system brings an overhauled UI with rounded corners and new design elements. This article goes through the major features and changes Microsoft made so far in Windows 11.

Nvidia has launched today its newest GeForce Game Ready driver in the form of the 471.41 WHQL-certified display driver. The new software adds support for DLSS in RDR 2, Chernobylite, and more.

A new documentation published by Intel suggests that Microsoft is planning to roll out Windows 11 update to the public in the second half of 2021, as opposed to 2022 which was previously rumoured.

After more than a year of testing, WhatsApp is finally rolling out the ability to encrypt chat backups before uploading them to Google Drive offering extra security to WhatsApp users.
