I still use the LED visualizer from the 372.70 driver.  As long as you don't delete the old driver file out of the NVidia folder in the C: drive, you don't need GFE.  Not sure why people still think you need it to control the LEDs at this point.
 
C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\372.70\Win10_64\International\LEDVisualizer




Well... Because Im still running 359.06?

Anything before the three latest drivers has it is in the install file. Use the link i provided, but change it to 359.60 instead of 372.70, and it is right there.

C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\359.60\Win10_64\International\LEDVisualizer

If you are on windows 7 or 8, just adjust where you click. They are all the same subfolders through every install. Just keep the one you use, and it will always work.

I have it installed solely to control the LED's on my graphic cards.  I do not use it for optomization or anything else.
 
And I don't want Gears of War 4 anyway.


I have it to remind me when driver updates are available.

I wish EVGA would put the same LED control in Precision.  Let us turn off and on the LED in Precision instead of having to use the LEDVisualizer or GFE.

I accidentally clicked the optimism my games once... It's like having a nuke with a big red button in the middle of your living room, why take the chance.

NVIDIA can keep the crapware. This new software is no better than NTUNE .

That is a fantastic idea.

I remember when the newest precision was beihg released for the 10 series, there was a shadowplay button in the preview pictures. I had high hopes that we would have shadowplay without GFE. alas, i still dont see that.

Well [censored].  I didn't know it was built into the drivers themselves.
