Sounds like it recommends the best ingame settings for your card. Great for new users I suppose.

Well, engines are becoming more complex nowadays. One may not know which feature is actually resource consuming. Depending on your hardware, you may lack of VRAM, or memory bandwidth, or just raw computing performance. If the piece of software can handle that, it's a great tool for mid range gamers!

so where is the link? lol u put it there so we can click on an empty space hehehe i could very well use that tool myself just one click and everything is set.

It's just a placeholder for now where I can link the download page to. These threads are created by the Guru3D CMS automatically once I make the content. The beta will get available in like 20 mins.

Finally, curious to see how well it works.

Alright guys, online give it a try and post your feedback in this thread please.

Installing now on win8 pro 64bit seems to install fine now issues so far only 13 out of 42 installed games (yeah I know possible not settings for all the games I have installed) checking for update seems very slow not sure if its died on its self WoW settings are very harsh on my system its very playable totally maxed out sitting around 40-60fps in raids Assassins creed 3 picks up something under C:\Program files (x86)\installshield installation info and classes it as AC3 causing a double entry BL2 settings seem a bit harsh for my system never had fps issues with my current settings

I like how it shows the latest driver release notes, hopefully profile updates will now have more information, much better than the old update UI. Another thing I like is the images it shows under the recommended settings, hovering over it shows small info boxes that'll tell you what each setting does with an example. The settings themselves seem a bit conservative, I'm assuming it doesn't consider overclocks and it doesn't seem to pick up dedicated PhysX cards. I'll chime in again later 🙂

@Hilbert Hagedoorn or NVidia Is it possible to get a list of support games from NVidia before I make a list of games not showing I have installed. Thanks

That listed on our download page. The initial games supported in this first Beta are. Assassin's Creed 3 Batman: Arkham City Battlefield 3 Blade and Soul Borderlands 2 Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 CrossFire: Rival Factions Crysis 2 Counter-Strike:GO Diablo III Dirt 3 DOTA 2 Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim F1 2012 FIFA 12 FIFA 13 League of Legends Mass Effect 3 Max Payne 3 Medal of Honor: Warfighter Planetside 2 Portal 2 Shogun 2: Total War Star Wars The Old Republic StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty Team Fortress 2 The Sims 3 The Sims Medieval The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings World Of Tanks World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria

Error This file does not exist

The bold text at the original post explains why. NVIDIA is having some issues on their end and asked us to take the download offline for the moment. Once we get the thumbs up again I'll activate the download page again.

Should we re-download it when it's available again?

Not likely, but how cool would it be if we just crashed their cloud servers 🤓

Setting game path doesn't save in the preferences, i set my C drive where my games are and it picks up games i have on a backup drive and i can't set the folders i want it to scan in. So setting my proper games path is useless because it will scan all drives no matter what i change.

That's odd, my preferences for file locations saved.

Did the Geforce Experience software pick up games on any of your other drives? If not then try copying a game folder to another drive then try the game scan after removing all other file path locations other then your C drive location and let me know if it happens to u as well. Thanks for the response.

I had to force it to look into my E: drive, it wouldn't pick up my games from the preselected folders.

Very strange. I couldn't get it to stop looking in my games backup drive and had to disable the drive just to stop it from scanning my backups :bang: Now i'm wondering if it's just me or not. I wonder if it's a Windows 8 thing. 😕

Okay, I have a folder in my D: drive that has "game" in part of its name, seems to re-add that location after a while, after I remove it.

Ok i think it scans all drives looking for the Game/Games folders, because that's what i have for my games backup folder. Problem solved i guess. Thanks for tracking down the problem Spets. :cheers:

Here are some interesting Facts. GeForce Experience Beta - Frequently Asked Questions Q: What is GeForce Experience? A: GeForce Experience is a new application from NVIDIA that optimizes your PC in two key ways. First, GeForce Experience automatically notifies you of new NVIDIA drivers and downloads them for you. NVIDIA is constantly working to improve its drivers. New drivers improve game performance, add new features, and fix bugs. Second, GeForce Experience optimizes graphics settings in your games based on your hardware configuration. NVIDIA performs extensive game testing for various combinations of GPUs, CPUs, and monitor resolutions and stores this information in the NVIDIA cloud. GeForce Experience connects to the NVIDIA Cloud and downloads optimized game settings tailored specifically to your PC. The result is that your PC is always kept up to date and optimized for the latest games. Q: What are the system requirements for GeForce Experience? A: GeForce Experience system requirements can be found here. Q: What games are optimal settings available for? A: GeForce Experience provides optimal settings for these games. Q: Why doesn’t my game show up on the Games tab after scanning for games? A: Only games that GeForce Experience has optimal settings for and are found on your computer will show up in the games list. GeForce Experience provides optimal settings for these games. Check to make sure your game is supported. Q: My game is supported but isn’t found after scanning for games. What can I do? A: GeForce Experience uses the locations specified in the Preferences —> Games tab to find games. Add the location where your game is installed. Q: How do I provide feedback to NVIDIA about GeForce Experience? A: Use the Send Feedback button in the application’s status bar. This requires a connection to the Internet. Q: Why does my game need to be run before optimal settings can be applied? A: GeForce Experience applies optimal settings by modifying a game’s configure files. Some games need to be run for the first time before the game creates the configuration files on your hard drive. Q: Are optimal settings supported for SLI configurations? A: GeForce Experience optimal settings are currently based on single GPU. SLI configurations may be able to achieve higher quality settings. We plan to improve SLI support in a future release. Q: Can GeForce drivers be downloaded without GeForce Experience? A: Yes, standalone GeForce drivers are still available from www.geforce.com/drivers. Q: What is the target frame rate for determining optimal settings? A: GeForce Experience targets 40 FPS (average) for its optimal settings. Note that graphics intensity can vary from scene to scene and we try to select intensive scenes for optimizing settings, so you may see averages above 40 FPS. Q: What configuration parameters are considered when determining optimal settings? A: The primary parameters are GPU, CPU, and resolution. There are also minimum requirements for system RAM and OS. Q: My system is showing as being below minimum spec, but GeForce Experience still recommends optimal settings. Why? A: GeForce Experience recommends the best experience possible for your hardware configuration, even if it is below our target 40 FPS. Q: What data does GeForce Experience send to NVIDIA? A: GeForce Experience does not collect any personally identifiable information. The application collects data needed to recommend the correct driver update and optimal settings including hardware configuration, operating system, language, installed games, game settings, game usage, game performance, and current driver version. You can disable data collection in GeForce Experience in the preferences tab, but without information about your PC, GeForce Experience will not be able to optimize your games. Q: Does NVIDIA share data collected by GeForce Experience outside the company? A: NVIDIA may share aggregate-level data with select partners, but does not share user level data. Again, GeForce Experience does not collect any personally identifiable information. Q: What is UpdatusUser and why does GeForce Experience create this account? Beginning with Release 270 drivers for desktops, when NVIDIA Update or GeForce Experience is installed, the software creates the UpdatusUser account. This account runs the NVIDIA Update service for updating drivers and application profiles through the NVIDIA server. The service cannot be run without this account. NVIDIA has taken every precaution to make the driver implementation of UpdatusUser as secure as possible. This implementation has been audited by Veracode (www.veracode.com), a third party security auditor, and has been given a rating of "Best". NVIDIA Update and GeForce Experience, with the UpdatusUser account, is considered a low security risk implementation.
