Windows 11 promises improved AI and gaming performance thanks to NPU and GPU boosts in 24H2 update

Windows 11’s big 24H2 update includes an important revision of a driver display model which will usher in important benefits in terms of speeding up NPUs (Neural Processing Units) and GPUs.

This new Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) version 3.2 will come with the 24H2 update and a support document from Microsoft, spotted by Windows Latest, outlines various driver-related improvements that it’ll implement.

This WDDM update will have a weighty focus on NPU optimization, for devices that have an NPU on-board, of course, which includes Copilot+ PCs (a speedy NPU is a requirement for the latter). This will mean faster AI processing, so that features such as Recall – the controversial supercharged search functionality Microsoft has temporarily put on ice – or other AI workloads, will happen in a swifter fashion. It will also deliver GPU-related measures that could improve gaming performance.
