Disagree, and i don’t think it’s the point.

As an average user, why am I paying a performance hit for nvidia’s own “recommended parameters”

That’s trash and a terrible experience, and they should be called out for it.

I don't think you're understanding. The testing they did was presumably fine and the performance hit is probably unacceptable. But mentioning but not testing the scenarios of

  • app installed but not running
  • app installed and running but overlay turned off

Is kinda mailing it in.

I’ll give you that, yep, sure.

But that doesn’t invalidate the data they did get, it’s just not a full picture.
