read the posts below, got some info

 

 

* edit: The tool alters the NV installer package so you get a smaller, tuned, NV installer package, only with the features you want, if you dare ;)

I'm not getting this. Can't we do the same thing when we install the drivers? I always choose what I want installed and the list looks the same as this tool.

 

How does this help performance?

[BitMaster]

It's for those who dare to use it BuzzU cuz they "THINK" they know what they're doing LOL ;)

 

 

If it fails miserably, they call it a lesson but usually can help themselves out of the pitfall.

 

 

 

 

it may help performance as you can untick lots of features that then also won't be running, like telemetry, GF Experience, Streaming services, all those could make it run better, sleaker is usually better. Only some of thos ecan be unticked in NV installer, others only in that tool.

 

 

I made a package for my rig to work the tool, maybe I should actually install it with a DDU first and see if it matters for my personal perception.

Well I ran and installed it works fine and it did delete a lot of the Bloatware..

 

 

Not sure if it helped but it didn't hurt..

it did delete a lot of the Bloatware

 

i’m all for cleaning afterwards, but any idea how the bloatware got on there in the first place?

[The_Nephilim]

By Bloatware I meant all the stuff it omitted in Misc. tabs.. I was wondering besides it omitting some things do you think this could be a hacker program, is that what you mean by "unsafe"??

Nvidia drivers contain pretty much everything you dont really need like Geforce Experience, sound and audio HD drivers and a bunch of other stuff you really dont use -UNLESS- you use shadowplay or livestream your online sessions. Thats pretty much the only reason why I keep GeForce Experience because you cant use shadowplay without it.
