i mean there are features that the apps have to enhance the experience. especially this patch is the one that enables Nvidia RTX HDR for multi monitor setups (which gives a better HDR experiemce than Windows implementation of it).
if you only need a driver, sure you dont need the app, but just because you dont use all the features doesnt mean its completely bloatware/no real advantage. (and Im saying this from the POV that geforce experience was overly bloated).
Is rtx HDR not a driver feature? and they're simply putting the toggle switch in the app instead of the control panel like they have for everything else? I doubt that the functionality is actually embedded in this app.
You're correct, there's no way to do this without it being a driver feature, but it seems like if they're not adding it to the control panel, they're using it as a carrot to get people to use the app
Yep The filters feature appears to be the carrot. I did more reading after.
That said I'm sure it's just time before someone makes a lightweight tool that can control this.
