Cut the price down to sane levels? Nah, let's add more useless fucking features that nobody asked for so we can justify the next price increase!

Useless features some people asked for*
I switched from 7900XTX (I kept it a week), to 4080 RTX JUST for the AI cuda cores.

Nvidia GeForce Experience and Control Panel is being retired. Instead we'll get Nvidia App. Nvidia App is available as public beta.

yup that was my sentiment as well..
nvcpl (or "settings") will still be slow as fuck but now with the extra bloat added...

Good change I hope? Nvidia needed something. Criticism aside of either flavor. I feel AMD was miles ahead of nvidia on control/interface software.
If I could get an Nvidia card, with the AMD software (just the card controls and stat display..I never use the game/recording stuff in either) would be my ideal situation.

It would be fine, but finding profiles in the list is as horrible as ever. How difficult is it to have games in order based on the name?

Indeed, I've practically been using the good ol' Inspector for years because of the panel's obsolescence. I do like vintage things (like the Humps ), but that was a bit too much 
Here's hoping the new app will be an organic lean evolution of it rather than one of those modern congregations of junky features, Arr tee X banners and awesome buttons. |

It's the only thing I dislike about having an Nvidia card.
16 core CPU with 64 gigs ram...and it takes a full 5-10 seconds of laggy freeze to get Nvidia control panel to fully load and be clickable. Even then jumping menus in it feels like I'm on a core2duo that's busy at 100% disk load while I'm doing it:P

Not I. I have HDR, but I never use it. Perhaps it's my bright home office my PC is in, or something. HDR always makes shit in games harder/worse to see for me. It looks better (objectively), just makes dark games harder to see shit I want to see, and blinds me on flashes.
Maybe I should try the new one. As it's always been "Wow, that looks better..and somehow worse to play games with..at the same time" and turn it off.

Updated drivers on the laptop to give lies of P a try, a new "USB-C Driver" option appears when choosing the extended/manual install option.

I skipped it ofc, still found it pretty weird. Last driver was from August 2023 so it was between then and now.

HDR is only good with OLED panels and high end mini led ones.

Meh its true, I almost always disable mirrored floors for the 70fps performance boost.
Also most games shilling RTX tend to look extremely good without it enabled, it's never worth the -75% performance hit.

I view RTX how I viewed NVIDIA's other endeavors - SLI, PhysX Addon Cards, HairWorks (tm) - nice to have, but ultimately a huge waste of both money and performance resources.
NVIDIA just "happened" to roll out the tech before the crux of all the bitcoin bullshit, and struck it big, as its existence allowed them to jack up prices on their cards higher than they ever had before between generations, just in time for the pandemic and massive shortages.
Scummy fucking company that knows they've got everybody by the balls, as AMD can never seem to get their shit together.
I can never be free, because the shackles I wear can't be touched or be seen.

Raytracing is okay if it doesn't kill performance. DLSS is MUCH more important though since it allows you to get smooth fps at higher resolutions/quality than the card could handle without DLSS.
