NVIDIA Broadcast 2.1.0 adds multi-GPU support

NVIDIA Broadcast 2.1.0 adds multi-GPU switching, updates Virtual Key Light

NVIDIA has updated the Broadcast app with an option aimed at multi-GPU PCs. The main change is support for switching which GPU runs Broadcast, instead of being locked to a single adapter.

In the 2.1.0 release notes, NVIDIA says the installer now downloads the required engines for any GPU in the system. After that, users can select the GPU for Broadcast from the NVIDIA Control Panel, and the app should keep working without a reinstall.

Virtual Key Light also changes in this release. NVIDIA says the effect is now out of beta, with improved performance and better relighting quality, and it is listed as working on GeForce RTX 3060 desktop GPUs and higher.

What’s new in NVIDIA Broadcast 2.1.0

  • Virtual Key Light is now out of beta, with improved performance and enhanced relighting quality. The new version works on RTX 3060 desktop GPUs and higher.
  • New light mode for the UI for users that prefer a light theme.
  • Support for multi-GPU setups. Upon install, NVIDIA Broadcast downloads the engines required for any GPU in the PC, so you can later switch which
  • GPU it runs on in the NVIDIA Control Panel and have it work correctly.

System requirements stay RTX-only. NVIDIA lists a minimum of GeForce RTX 2060 (or equivalent RTX-class parts), 8GB of RAM, Windows 10 64-bit or Windows 11, and a 570-series driver or newer, with a Ryzen 5 2600 or Core i5-8600 class CPU suggested.

NVIDIA Broadcast 2.1.0 is available now, and the release notes also mention a new light UI theme option (is anyone using it?).
