    Is the optimization really accurate?

    I used it in GTA V and it worked and he game runs flawlessly. High to very high no issues.

    Yet Arkham Knight it recommends low and off on most settings.

    The specs of my system are in my sig. I have several other games loaded but haven't tried yet. I just got the laptop Monday

    I don't believe its accurate at all. I have a 980 TI and it recommends settings way lower than I use and I still get 60 FPS.

    I prefer to do all that manually and tweak the settings depending on what I like to see. If you don't want to mess around a lot, it could help you :)

    Same here, the couple of times I thought I would check out the Nvidia settings it dropped my settings to medium and applied stupid amounts of AA.... It was almost like it was going for a console-like experience...... I didn't like that at all so, as I have done all these years, I apply my own settings. (Usually High/Ultra with minimal AA)
