NVIDIA has released a new utility called NVIDIA APP (what a name!) that is a kind of super control center for all stuff related to your NVIDIA graphics card and drivers.
The NVIDIA App is the essential companion for PC gamers and creators. Keep your PC up to date with the latest NVIDIA drivers and technology. Optimize games and applications with a new unified GPU control center, capture your favorite moments with powerful recording tools through the in-game overlay, and discover the latest NVIDIA tools and software.
NVIDIA app is designed to be fast and responsive. When compared to GeForce Experience, it installs in half the time, offers a modernized UI that is 50% more responsive, and includes numerous features via easily navigated sub-sections:
Home: Access every element of NVIDIA app with a few clicks, load and configure your most recently used programs, view the latest NVIDIA announcements, and download other NVIDIA applications
NVIDIA Overlay: Redesigned and enhanced, now boasting 4K 120 FPS AV1 video capture, AI-powered RTX game filters, a new Gallery to sort and view your videos and screenshots, and a highly customizable statistic overlay for viewing hardware stats on the desktop and during gameplay
Drivers: Redesigned with bullet points to call out “what’s new” and “what’s fixed,” single carousel to access driver-related articles on games and technologies, and ability to rollback to previous drivers.
Graphics: Optimal Playable Settings and relevant NVIDIA Control Panel options are now accessible in a unified interface.
System: Configure your displays, enable G-SYNC, enhance local and streamed videos with our AI-powered Video Super Resolution and High Dynamic Range features, tune your GPU’s performance for faster frame rates, and view rig details
Redeem: Claim GeForce Rewards for your favorite games and apps, including our newly-launched GeForce Reward for the game THRONE AND LIBERTY
