Nvidia GTX Pascal-era GPUs are now running on Windows XP thanks to modders

Modder SupraGSX has created an unofficial Nvidia driver called ForceWare 382.69 for Windows XP, enabling compatibility with Nvidia's Pascal graphics cards, including the Titan Xp. This driver is based on Nvidia's GeForce 368.69 driver and is designed for 32-bit versions of Windows XP, allowing the use of modern graphics cards like the GTX 1080 Ti and Titan X. It also supports contemporary display standards such as DisplayPort 1.4 HBR3 and HDMI 2.0, with successful tests reported on high-refresh-rate monitors. The driver supports Direct3D 9 and OpenGL, but users have reported inconsistent performance and issues with certain functionalities. ForceWare 382.69 is available on GitHub, but installing unofficial drivers carries risks, especially for valuable hardware. Windows XP is not suitable for modern internet use and lacks support for contemporary software.

TITAN Xp Finally Runs on Windows XP Thanks to a Modded NVIDIA Driver

A modder named SupraGSX released an unofficial Windows XP driver on GitHub called Forceware 382.69, designed to support NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 10-series graphics cards, including the TITAN Xp. This driver is a patched version of NVIDIA's older 368.81 driver from July 2016, specifically for 32-bit Windows XP systems. It supports various graphics cards, including GTX 1060, GTX 1070, GTX 1070 Ti, GTX 1080, GTX 1080 Ti, TITAN X (Pascal), TITAN Xp, and some GTX 900-series and Quadro cards. The driver introduces support for DisplayPort 1.4 HBR3 and HDMI 2.0, although not all models were individually validated. The latest build, released on October 4, fixes OpenGL crashes on Pascal cards, verified on the GTX 1080 Ti, while support for GP107 cards, like the GTX 1050 Ti, remains experimental. Users are advised to be cautious when installing unverified drivers on their primary machines.

The Pixel 11 series has a gaming problem, and Google’s new graphics default is to blame

ANGLE is the default OpenGL ES implementation on the Pixel 11 series, introduced in the September 2026 update. It translates calls to Vulkan and is meant to improve compatibility and stability, but it is causing significant microstutter and lower frame rates in games like Genshin Impact, COD Mobile, and Asphalt Legends. The default ANGLE rendering on the Pixel 11 series is resulting in poor gaming performance.
