Optimize games?

You sure?,the only thing i Saw about that thing is that puts your Game on native resolution and puts everything on high in the Game graphic options

It changes the settings based on your hardware and how it thinks it will perform.

It absolutely doesn't 'optimize', if by that you mean 'make the game run better'.

It can. It's certainly a YMMV situation. SOme people swear by it. and others say it is crap. Myself , I didn't notice any difference so I scrapped it.

I tried it on a hight spec and work properly but not good for low spec i also tried using laptop and it work terrible

Can Nvidia GeForce experience affect the fps and the smoothness in a bad way?

If your system isn't monster, yeah, it gives a pretty strong performance hit due to the amount of ram it's hogging whenever it's running.

Never recommend it.


OP: you don't need to uninstall, just go to the site, choose the right new driver, and click Install from there. It'll remove anything unnecessary by itself.

So I started up Nvidia Geforce Experience and it took a whopping 150MB, MY GOD that would have been an issue 15 YEARS ago.

So please, do show some proof that this software that only seems to run when you actually have it open that it affect performance.

I only ever found that Shadowplay would cause a bit of FPS drops but not the client itself.

Uninstall driver. Get driver, choose custom install. Unmark things.

Keep the last known running drivers. Could save the day.

What other things should i unmark?

Only ge force experience and shadow Play?

[Muppet among Puppets]

You only need physix and the display driver, some games need physix legacy.

[LeftPaw]

Yeah, get rid, it will bring you nothing but heartache, it's horse dollop. When installing drivers go custom and untick the experience bloatware.

Which telemetry stuff?

So the only way is ddu?

Use a search machine you like to do an own research for "nvidia telemetry", "nvdia analytics and tracking", "gpu diagnostics", "gpu accelerated analytics" You will find enough hints and ways to disable those stuff for "experience". Some clean and easy solutions and some means a bit more work.

NVidia as well as other "big" companys main business is AI, and we as "cheap ressource"... i mean consumers deliver data for free...every day... Of course Nvida is happy about this.

Without baits like "streaming" or "automated game optimization" or "update news", consumers would not accept such a thing in the first place.

Streaming/Shadowplay -> there is a lot other software around which anyone can use
Automated game optimization -> Well, it's a function for lazy people
Update news -> Another function for lazy people
Ansel -> image recognition and most products deliver strange picture results, even here it's more a compfort function. Few less clicks...

I used it a couple times and noticed worse performance.

Uninstalled and moved on.

That’s your gaming graphics driver

If you remove that you could damage your pc

False.

The "Experience" is a suite of bloatware that nvidia adds to your computer only when you let it.

The driver itself can and should be installed ALONE.

When you download the driver it will give you the OPTION to "only install the driver" OR "install the full Experience".

NEVER install the Experience. It's garbage on a stick.

Most suites like this are crap, bloaty, ram-sucking things that should never be installed. To my knowledge there is a total of ONE thing that the Experience does that I personally would like, (or it might be some other suite?) and that's panoramic no-UI screenshots. That's it.

So... Untick the box that says install the experience, only make sure that the driver is what gets installed. You DO have the option.

If you have a problem that the experience lowers your performance then I assume you are using not a GPU thats supported by the Experience anyways.
Using the word You to descripe people in general, not you.
Plus the Software adds many usefull features.

As far as i know,to optimize games,Nvidia control panel is the best 👍

You do however have to know what you're doing. Xperience is basically a system where by Nvidia tries to suss out based on a database in maintains of games and popular user configurations, what will work best for your game on your system.

Henc the YMMV. SOmetimes it works, sometimes it makes things worse, and othertimes it has no discernable effect.

[Zekiran]

Indeed. My point all along being: if you've got the best-of-the-best and want to eke out even more 'performance' or change your visuals in some specific ways, the Experience will work fine.

Anything other than that, to wit: not performing well on lower-end rigs, and having no discernible benefits, is ... just a waste of space on your hard drive.

To my knowledge, all *currently available* (as in, "still in production") nvidia products DO support the Experience. It's been around for quite some years now.

Maybe it works best with the absolutely-newest stuff. Maybe it was still just a pile of steamy crap when they first converted their prior suite into it.

But then again I remember the eras when Nvidia and AMD/ATI were trying to actually out-perform each other and failing spectacularly in the weirdest ways. one of them had terrific hardware and absolute ♥♥♥♥♥ drivers, the other had insanely good drivers but their hardware was flawed and noisy/wonky. They switched several times, as to who was making the best stuff.

But their suites have never performed well *for me*, so I've always removed them. ATI's CCC was where I really noticed that it actively interfered with playing Portal I believe it was, it caused so much trouble for me that I finally learned how to do this stuff manually and not rely on any other system to do it for me.

Keeping the last known working driver as a backup is more important than getting a new one.
From what i get here, "experience" will do the opposite

Do inform people how this little program cause performance issues on lower end PCs. You've yet to provide any proof of it.



Benefit of having Geforce Experience is to be notified of a new driver that it will auto download. Then you can do a fresh install with Geforce Experience without a problem.

The only time I've ever needed to install a previous driver was with AMD drivers for Nier Automata game because the older drivers didn't get a white screen issue.

At any other time I've had no need to install an older driver. So this isn't such a big issue.

If you had not have the old driver, it was a big issue......

Other examples are performance could be bad with later drivers, grafic errors in a specific game.
The risk might increase with the age of your card or your time expectation to use it.
