Moore Threads released driver version 340.150 on June 23, 2024, to improve stability and performance for its MTT S80 and MTT S70 graphics cards. This update matters to users of these specific GPUs because it addresses compatibility issues with older hardware and significantly boosts frame rates in several popular games. Buyers with legacy systems can now run their hardware more reliably without needing to upgrade their CPUs or motherboards immediately.
Update adds legacy CPU compatibility and FFmpeg Vulkan support
The driver update targets the MTT S80 and MTT S70 models and supports Windows 10 64-bit 21H2 Professional Workstation and newer versions, as well as Windows 11 64-bit 23H2, 24H2, and 25H2. Moore Threads optimized the software to ensure stable compatibility with early CPUs and motherboards that lack Resizable BAR functionality. This low-level optimization allows the GPUs to function correctly on systems that previously struggled with these modern memory management features.
- Driver Version: 340.150
- Supported GPUs: MTT S80, MTT S70
- Supported OS: Windows 10 64-bit 21H2 Professional Workstation and newer, Windows 11 64-bit 23H2/24H2/25H2
- Feature: Resizable BAR Compatibility: Stable compatibility with early CPUs/motherboards lacking Resizable BAR via low-level optimization
- Feature: FFmpeg Vulkan Support: Added support for FFmpeg Vulkan video encoding/decoding
Performance gains in gaming are a central focus of this release, with Moore Threads reporting specific improvements for several titles. Europa Universalis V sees a performance increase of over 150 percent, while Wuthering Waves in DirectX 11 mode improves by more than 90 percent. DEADLOCK also benefits from the update with a performance boost exceeding 80 percent. These figures indicate a substantial shift in how these games render on the affected hardware.
Beyond gaming, the driver introduces new technical capabilities for content creators and video processing workflows. It adds support for FFmpeg Vulkan video encoding and decoding, expanding the tools available for video manipulation. The update also deepens support for the Blender Vulkan backend to improve 3D rendering stability. Additionally, Moore Threads upgraded its MTVSR real-time video super resolution technology by integrating AI reconstruction algorithms for better image quality.
