Radeon R7 340 

The biggest update for the Nvidia Geforce 340.52 WHQL graphics driver is the support for Nvidia GameStream technology for the new Shield tablet as well as the Shield portable hand-held gaming console.

As expected, Nvidia has now released the new Geforce 340.52 WHQL-certified graphics driver which is a "game ready" driver for a couple of games, has some new SLI and 3D Vision profiles and brings support for GameStream technology for the recently launched Nvidia Shield tablet.

NVIDIA is classifying this as their Game Ready driver for GRID: Autosport and the Battlefield: Hardline beta, while a few other games including The Elder Scrolls: Online and Watch Dogs have received either new or updated SLI profiles.

As the follow-up to R337’s significant DirectX overhaul R340 is far more low-key release that is focused on iteration and minor features, as reflected by NVIDIA’s release highlights and release notes.

xx GPU drivers for Windows will be the last to contain "enhancements and optimizations" for users with video cards based on architectures before Fermi.

From our DirectX 12 live blog, we also noticed that the new graphics API will, likewise, begin support at Fermi.

The GPU core clock is maintained at 1000 MHz and the boost clock is configured at 1050 MHz.

The card is shipped with a Gigabyte of memory running across a 128-bit interface while clocks are maintained at 780 MHz for the core and 1150 MHz for the memory.
