FYI : "Nvidia has also moved Geforce GTX 700 and 600 series GPU to legacy driver support."

This happened *ages* agoQuote

Limitations for TWW on launch? This would certainly backup the DX12 performance deficit they have I posted yesterday in the game.Quote

What does this "Legacy Driver Support" thing actually mean? Sure, I have to download much older drivers for my ancient GTX 275 for example - current drivers are not compatible. However, the driver I download for my GTX 680's (368.22) are the exact some ones used for my friends GTX 970's.

So, I download ONE installer, yet it updates both my system and my friends system to 368.22, yet I run 680's he runs 970's. Basically the "legacy" driver I need, is still bundled in the main download it seems.

Previously, when something went "Legacy" like my GTX 275, support would stop at a given driver version, which was 341.92 for the GTX 275, newer drivers won't install on that PC.

Note: My PC with the ancient GTX 275, the one with the 680's and my friends with the 970's are all on Windows 10 Pro 64 bit.

I assume by "Legacy" they simply mean no tweaks for older GPU's? A perfectly valid driver is still present in the WHQL package after all.

I think it just means no additional features. Probably just updated game support and if lucky SLI profiles. But no performance improvements I'd guessQuote

That's certainly my take on it, though I guess 5, 6 & 700 series cards will slowly drop out of the current releases all together, as my old GTX 275 has. Not a problem of course, in fact I'm surprised NV don't have a different driver for each series really, though I suspect the current method is far easier for them to maintain.
