Same. The last time I reinstalled everything I decided to just not log in. I don't use it for anything other than to get driver updates. I can do that myself if I feel like I need it. That's what I did before automatic updates were even a thing.
Did they remove the necessary step of creating an account for a simple act of updating a driver? Because that sucked. I know I can go to a website and download the drivers manually but this is also not very convenient to remember checking for updates from time to time.
Edit: Oh silly me, check the article before commenting: yes, it says that login is optional. Yay, I guess.
why do you really even need to update the driver if everything works?
So that I can play Stardew Valley at highest FPS possible of course.
Joking aside, I have encountered problems with graphics card driver, specifically in Apex Legends (it took them ages to fix crashing mid-match with NVIDIA problem) and AC Valhalla (there was a slight gain in FPS, though it might have been a placebo). Also, the first thing I usually do when experiencing some lag is updating the drivers. It doesn’t always help, but sometimes it does.
And I simply don’t like the state of devices when there’s anything to update — it may be Windows, iOS, Android updates, or apps updates, or drivers updates, or Node.js package updates. That’s a me problem, and in case of Node updating usually brings more problems than it solves, but it just feels better when everything is on the latest version.
Oh how exciting! They moved all the menus around! How useful! It will at least be nice to never have to use the Stone Age settings app.
The "stone age" Nvidia control panel is far better than the bloated containerized web app that is GeForce Experience. This sequel app seems like just more of the latter, a low info-desity, heavyweight, gamer-ized, over-designed, TV UI app. Honestly, I'd prefer an .ini file or a CLI to this any day.
