New Windows 10 Nvidia Control Panel Leaked

AthlonXP1800 said:
No I think you are mistaken. I remembered Nvidia System Tools installed on my old Phenom II 940 system with ASUS M3N72-D motherboard with nForce 750A SLI chipset, googled found what Nvidia System Tools looked like but it looked nothing resembled like Nvidia Geforce Control for Windows 10. Nvidia System Tools was discontinued in 2011.

Prior to Phenom II 940, I had Athlon 64 X2 4400+ on ASUS A8N-E motherboard with nForce 4 Ultra chipset used nTune software so nTune looked nothing resembled like Nvidia Geforce Control.

This is going to bug me now - when I had my nForce 750 board there was a version of the ESA software that looked like that "Windows 10" release - it was only supported for around 1-2 versions before they retired it.
 
I don't really have an issue with the functionality of AMD's current control panel, but I don't like the appearance of it. There seems to be so much wasted screen space and oversized 'buttons'.
The new Nvidia control panel (if that's what this is) looks like it may be a bit better on that front, but we've only seen one screen.

I generally don't like change though, at least not to start with. Must be because I'm getting older...
 
I know it's probably foobar considering it's showing the 2700X at 4.20GHz, Unless it does actually show overclocks, It's also showing 4200MHz memory which could be hit or miss with Ryzen 2 and Titan V does not support SLI as the fingers just aren't physically there unless Nvidia have enabled SLI over the PCI-E interface like AMD did with Crossfire.

It would be great if Nvidia did bring out a new updated UI though, Changing settings and waiting a sec for the control panel to unfreeze is annoying especially when you have a lot of game specific profiles.
 
Ryzen 2 running the RAM at 4200 MHz, that is impressive along with the Titan V in SLI.

Personally like the current control panel as is, its relatively straight forward and if they keep the bulk of stuff within the tabs as they are I am fine with it. Not at all used to AMD Crimson and much prefer the Nvidia stuff so as long as they do not go for form over function!

I disagree. Radeon settings has improved a lot since it first released. Now it looks good and is basically idiot proof. Nvidia need to catch up as there panel looks and feels like windows 98.

Agreed. Also who is to say they cannot have function and form?

I am happy to see this personally. It has been needed for a long time as far as I am concerned anyway.

I hope they do revamp the NVCP and give those who want to remain with the older style a tick box in the options to do so.
Would be cool if they combined the NVCP and GFE into 1 so it's all 1 streamlined package like AMD did with their software.
