    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.

      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.

      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.

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

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

          I haven’t used NVIDIA for drivers in years. You can use NVCleanstall to install them without all the crap.

      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…

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