I have been using GF experience and want to ask if i should not bother with it?
I mainly use it for new driver updates,i dont like it to optimize my games.
should i just uninstall it and check for updated drivers myself?

    Some people like it and some people don't. I haven't evaluated the latest version myself so hopefully other forum members can come forward and give you more info.
     
    I didn't care for the previous version

    Example I use only Display Driver and PhysX but some people use both for game optimization and for updates.
    I stuck 1-2 times with driver update and I like to clean everything and to install new. It's 2 min.
    For me best thing is Shadowplay from Experience, only because of that.

    Will do! thanks!
     
    UPDATE: I removed it and wish i would have read that info much sooner!
    I did not know it goes into the games files and damages them permanently! plus there a whole list of negative things about it
    see it does pay to ask!   thanks again

    I prefer to adjust my own graphics settings rather than some software that is written to try to accomodate who knows how many different PC configurations.
     
    I also prefer to install drivers on my own terms.  Meaning when I'm ready to and only the specific parts I use, graphics and PhysX, nothing else.
     
    That's my 2 cents...

    As long as you're not actually using Nvidia's 3D tech, you don't need any of the 3D stuff from the installer.
