Sorry to sound like an old record but I really wish NVIDIA would put some, any, effort into redesigning the control panel for their drivers. The lack of consistency in design between GeForce Experience and the control panel continues to be jarring and the profile system is absolutely awful and needs a major update in my opinion. I'd be lost without third-party tools such as NVIDIA Inspector and NVIDIA's own SLI Profile Tool for editing and backing up profiles. Very sad that they haven't put any effort into it at all since the Windows XP days. I know people will say "if it ain't broken..." etc but in my opinion the profile system is broken when you cannot even rename a game profile that you have just added without using a third-party tool! The profiles have so many errors in them - incorrect executable names, misspelt game titles etc - which is why I backup them up pre-driver install and restore them post-driver install to edit the changes into them manually using Notepad++'s Compare feature. Anyway, with that off my chest... a new driver... yay! And with support for Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, two weeks before it releases. Double yay!

Interesting, it mentions the latency was only for Ampere, yet people complain for longer than that?

People usually talk about 1 off dpc latency spikes that occur across card state transisions as if its always happening (the ones that involve the pcie bus clocking up too), as if they constantly cause stutters and lags (they don't) Ampere/Lovelaces were tied to the Memory clock changes specifically, which can increase rapidly even without pcie bus state incrementing, it was mostly seen when you'd scroll a browser and the items on screen would rapidly change, so these could happen quite frequently and make a webpage hitch or stutter where it otherwise wouldnt in the 512 driver.

I'm surprised this is only 645 MB. Weren't previous drivers like 800+MB?

because nvidia stopped using driver compaction on the files in the DisplayDriver folder, the overall lzma algorithm does a better job of compressing all files.
