Why would I ever want this.

For if you wanted SD videos to upscale? If you don't then don't enable it in the nvidia control panel.

Do I have an nVidia control panel?

If you have an nVidia video card it can be helpful.

Keeping it updated without their godawful GeForce Experience bullshit is a bit of a pain, though. And it has limited settings.

Apparently the new nvidia app is miles better than GFE. I only use the control panel historically but installed the new app to remind me to update drivers.

the new app is a step in the right direction. it will push you to want to login via free rewards, but its optional. its a lot snappier than the POS that is GFE and really the only thing holding it back atm is not all the features of ncp has been integrated onto the new app, so it's still required to have the ncp around.

took forever as both AMD and Intel had updated their driver software suit ages ago now.

I'm pretty sure that's a windows only thing. My main machine is offline right now, but the nVidia settings tool is quite different from their windows control panel from wha I remember.
