GeForce Experience : Game can't be optimized
So the GeForce Experience states "Game can't be optimized" for Witcher 3. Anyone having the same issue or know how to fix this? :) Just got this game. Am playing on GTX 1060

I'm having the exact same problem with a GX 970 ( I think, not sure of the numbers here)
I sent a message to NVIDIA but never got any response.
I believe this has to do with me setting the options in game before doing so in NVIDIA, then it can't set up tthe game graphic options anymore once it's been done "in game".
No tech here.
Just my 2 cents...

Before I installed the GOTY I first got the newest version of Gefore Exp. and latest drivers. Then I installed the game, let GExp optimize and then after playing for a few hours, changed the settings in-game. GExp had set my fps to 30 and I changed it to 60. It had many settings on High and I upped several to Ultra. My Asus GTX 780 handles it very well and the graphics are superb.

Fun. I'm new to PCs, not to computers, so I just listened to myself in the end, and upped as you did every settings to the top without listening to much to NVIDIA and GForce, and everything works just beautifully and fast.

if you value stability and your sanity uninstall gforce exp. and turn off automatic driver updates. otherwise what works today may crash anytime when these autoupdate :/

No worries you don't need GeForce Experience. Just go in and tweak the settings manually - GTX 1060.... start in 1920x1080 resolution, maybe set everything to 'high' and then see how it performs. If you're getting great performance bump it to 'ultra' and see how it performs. If you're still good, start increasing resolution if your monitor supports higher resolution.

I'd always recommend finding what works for you, don't necessarily trust NVidia to set things correctly for your rig. :)

Ya, I used GeForce Experience when it was first released, just for the driver auto updating feature...then at one point it caused a BSOD on my box during a driver update, and from that point on I just installed the driver and physx, nothing else and just tweak all my game settings manually and had no more issues. GeForce Experience just seems like bloatware to me. Very little gain, but added stability risk and resource consumption.
