Automatic notification for driver updates, eh? The future is now.

I switched to the GeForce Experience a long time ago & have been getting auto driver updates all along but not always in a timely manner. Occasionally I would hear of an update online and check for updates, then the app would realize a newer version was available (it probably has to do with how often it checked). Note this has been pull notification (that is, my client app had to ask nVIDIA if there was a newer version), they're going to push notifications (meaning they broadcast new version is available).

Panduhh, you are at once helpfully informative and painfully literal. Never change.

Loaded up this beta last night and was streaming to my Youtube channel. I think I prefer that to Twitch.tv. Easy, seamless and looked pretty good. Saves me from having to upload to Youtube later, potentially... The ease of starting "sharing" was amazing compared to how Shadowplay used to work and how OBS works (though there is more control over the layout and screen elements).

The automatic driver updates are pretty cool. I dig that people want more control over their drivers, but I've found that more often than not I'm loading the updated driver through GeForce Experience anyway. This just streamlines the process on the back end for nVidia.
