After playing with the new menu system. I think its a necessary move as Nvidia does more with their platforms.
This new menu system will actually be a very concise place for all things Nvidia in the future, and it works well even in this early build.
What it does seem to need is more descriptions for the different graphic options in advanced like the old panel does.
I do prefer the legacy menu but I'm going to get used to this one as all the new features being added in the future will utilize it.
I think the old menu system was getting a little cramped, especially if they are going to continue adding new options.
As long as it still allows me to jump right in.. which it does by going to 3d Settings-> Manage.. I'm a happy camper.
When I was adding 8xSupersampling AA and 16x AF to the Warcraft 3 TFT profile I noticed two new options in the 3d settings I never noticed before: Ignore OpenGL error reporting and OpenGL threading. I'm not sure if they are new or not, but I hadnt noticed them before.
I like it, this will probably be very useful with the upcoming NF5 to integrate the Tritium platform, the audio and video all in one hopefully if you have more than just a NV GPU.
It needs a little work, but the legacy option is still there, both are VERY fast (instantaneous). No lag, thats the way I like to see my drivers.
Does need more explanations on 3D settings though and needs a "restore defaults" option within the 3D settings for global and individual games.
Necessary move, and great 1st run at it for a beta. Cant wait to get the final.
