Do game-optimising apps actually work, ever?
I remember asking about Nvidia's GeForce Experience, or whatever it was that's supposed to optimise your games based on your particular hardware combination, and everyone just said "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO.......!!!!!".
I found the AMD one quite useful (Raptr) - It was never perfect but it gave you a good heads start on finding optimal settings as it based on other users feedback. You still need to tweak them sometimes but it sped things up. Shame its gone now...Quote:

I've never had many problems with Nvidia's GE, it just adjusts the ingame settings, the only problems i've had are with cities skylines not working correctly and some ubisoft games not being able to be optimized, oh and plenty others not being detected.Quote:

Whenever I used it, the configured settings were much too high. I'd get peaks of 60fps, but a lot of the time was below. I suppose that's the problem with relying on crowd sourced settings, if everyone elses' settings are s**t, it completely defeats the point.Quote:

If a game doesn't have a benchmark you can use, it's nice to be able to dive straight into the campaign with settings pretty close to the ideal from the start. Nothing ruins a great opening scene to a game like stuttering with the wrong graphics settings
