On the ED forum I found a link to a Nvidia GTX/RTX driver that’s supposedly cleaned of ‘Nvidia bloat’…
Anybody know anything about this driver?

I did a short check to see if this clean driver has any advantages but I only found a lot of info about bloatware, but not what the bloatware exactly does for your performance.
If a clean driver has a proven better performance I am convinced, but just using it to avoid bloatware does not make sense to me as I do not experience any problems which could be caused by the bloatware…
I rather like the overlay function that saves my final kill or death in some games (something which is called bloatware by others).
What’s that?
I get bloated if I don’t watch my salt intake …but I don’t think it impacts DCS…
But you’re not sure…?
EXTRA! EXTRA! Read all about it
DCS Mission developer says that your salt intake may affect DCS performance.
Ah, that!
My experience: This was on a new box BTW, fresh install of Windows, graphics drivers, etc.
After running it for a few days I did the debloat thing (clean graphic driver, debloat Windows). Saw significant improvement; my 3080Ti wasn’t giving me what I thought it should “out of the box”. Now it does. Of course I always want more
Just don’t ask me give you a detailed breakdown of what did what. @taubkin commented on an improvement related to this but I’ll let him expand if he wishes.
Windows, et. al. tend to bog down with processes I personally don’t need or want. Too many moving parts in these systems for an easy answer; some people are just used to keeping things streamlined and certain steps may not make any difference.
What did you do?
‘I have enough FPS’ said no flightsimmer, ever.
Lemme recall where I posted this…ah, here in another thread. Was the Titus Tech link. It runs a script from PowerShell (I only ran the “essential tweaks”). One immediately noticeable thing: On my spanking new box it reduced the number of process from ~180 to 80. But this box has one sole purpose in life: my flight sim indulgance.
Also, this is a new Windows 11 box.
Unrelated (time for a thread un-railing?): my haptic thing seems to be more, uhh, “responsive”? Likely due to the overall improvement in efficiency between the two PC; more cores, running more efficiently; at higher speed. Makes sense I guess.
Watching my lua numbers in DCS (think it’s the last figure, bottom right, when reading the FPS numbers (2nd click): the percentage is 1/2 what it was on the old box, thereby reducing the ‘spank me’ time so I perceive less latency. Or, maybe not. Just feels that way. Which is why I’d like to see ED put this in the code - eliminate the middle-men in the process.
That was easy enough! Thanks!
