    Geforce Experience had a non-zero percent influence on my choice to go radeon this time around. I doubt this replacement would fare any better, by the sounds of things.

      Nvidia experience has gotten so bad that I actually download drivers manually from the site again. It should not take 3+ minutes to start a program that does virtually nothing and THEN make me login to even fucking use it - just to update the driver.

      I don’t even use this app on my windows install. As soon as it made me log in I just uninstalled it. Why the fuck would I need to enable data collection to tweak the video card I bought off them? It’s bullshit.

      Using the Radeon software is such a good experience. I never had any issues with it or the driver, they are looking clean, are responsive and actually helpful.

      Hope that you get a similar experience, for how expensive Nvidia is it should be mandatory to have a good software…

        Given how atrocious it is to download drivers from their website…

        You’re mostly right but damn, their offerings aren’t pretty.

        For now they are, when they are happy with new software they will remove old panel, because otherwise they would have to keep updating two apps with same new changes.

      I went the other way, I do miss the control radeon had, now I have to use afterburner to do the fan control stuff.
