This update, among other things, adds support for VK_EXT_descriptor_heap, which should bring significant performance boost to Nvidia cards, once it's properly implemented.

This is not a new GPU but a driver, so the GPU you have gives you more performance. But yeah buying a new GPU is crazy right now. Maybe used amd cards are still affordable.
