I'm currently using Geforce Experience with my 960 and so far all it has done is make shadowplay work (sometimes), make videos black screen (sometimes) and improperly optimized games (sometimes). It decided to change all my setting on siege that i had masterfully laid out for maximum performance to quality yet it decided to run it in some 4k 21:9 mode on a 1080p 16:9 monitor. While changing all setting to Lowest. I only use it for the FPS counter that doesn't work anytime i tab out of a goddamn game and tab back in. I like shadowplay but 50% of the time and doesn't record audio and the other 25% it just doesn't record anything. My question basically is am i gonna be better off uninstalling it and checking for a new driver monthly :)

The way any of these optimizers work is by using a database of feedback from gamers whom play the games. Thus they're more likely to work with ones that have more feedback.

IMO they are totally unnecessary, because most popular titles have GeForce Graphics Guides (or other similar guides). These are articles that detail what each graphic settings does, shows how each setting looks, and explains how much FPS impact there is on each setting.

Of course this means at the very least a few minutes of reading, but it also educates the user as to which settings are likely to cause more impact. The more you read them, the quicker you get at fine tuning settings.

It doesn't mean X setting always causes X impact, as games can vary from setting...

It doesn't mean X setting always causes X impact, as games can vary from setting to setting as to how well each setting is optimized, but it can give you an idea of which settings usually have the most impact.

The other method I use is finding forums that have a fair amount of chat on the game. It's often how I find out if a given problem is on my end, or a glitch in the game. For instance CoD WWII would run, but always eventually crash on Ultra settings with my 1080 Ti. I found out no one was ale to play the game on Ultra because of this problem, and unfortunately the only workaround was dropping the graphics settings down one notch.
