Nvidia-branded Version of Stardock's Impulse Will Auto-Install Graphics Drivers
by Nick Breckon, Sep 01, 2009 4:00pm PDTStardock today announced that a new "Nvidia Edition" version of its PC digital download platform Impulse is set to be released later this summer.
The application will function just as Stardock's current incarnation of Impulse does, but will also automatically detect and install driver updates for Nvidia graphics cards.
"The single biggest issue preventing PC gamers today from having an optimal experience is a failure to update their video card drivers," said Stardock CEO Brad Wardell.
Continued Wardell: "For many users, updating video drivers has been a complicated and sometimes confusing experience. As PC game developers ourselves, we recognized those concerns and, in partnership with Nvidia, have taken a step to make the process more accessible."

Big props to NVidia and Stardock for trying to actually make the PC gaming experience better.
