Fermi GPUs
As of Windows 10 November Update, Fermi GPUs now use WDDM 2.0 in single GPU configurations. For multi-GPU configurations, WDDM usage is as follows:

• In non-SLI multi-GPU configurations, Fermi GPUs use WDDM 2.0. This includes configurations where a Fermi GPU is used with Kepler or Maxwell GPUs.
• In SLI mode, Fermi GPUs still use WDDM 1.3.

Application SLI Profiles

• Bless – DirectX 9 SLI profile added
• DayZ – SLI AA and NVIDIA Control Panel AA enhance disabled
• Dungeon Defenders 2 – DirectX 9 SLI profile added
• Elite Dangerous – 64-bit EXE added
• Hard West – DirectX 11 SLI profile added

Windows 10 Fixed Issues

• Cleaned up flip timing and event notification bugs. [200151547]
• Fixed a driver bug where if the output is active, hot unplugging a device will cause any following hot plug device to be ignored. [1707505]
• Cleaned up unexpected behavior related to the multi-HMD (helmet-mounted device) use case. [200152110]
• Return NVAPI_NO_CONNECTOR_FOUND from the NVAPI_GPU_GetAllDisplayIds() when headless GPUs are detected to allow for identification of the unsupported use case. [200155835]
• [GM20x] Clock speeds remain above idle at 144 Hz on desktop. [1631144]
