Some questions regarding Nvidia 580

After sitting on my shelf for nearly six years, I have finally installed FSX with my new build. So for the last few weeks I have researching all the tweaks out there. Lot's n lot's of reading - whew! :Whew: So I almost had my AMD 6970 just where I wanted it but not quite so I bought today an EVGA 580 to make some comparisons. Gawd, I haven't used an Nvidia card since my P3 days so I am starting from scratch.So I installed it ok, looks very good. But isn't there some Nvidia default program equivalent to AMD's Catalyst Contol Center? I'm still reading up at the Nvidia site for some type of utility download. Reading here it seemed like there is also Nhancer. So I d/l that only to discover it does not work with drivers past 25x.xx. I'm at 263.09. So what are you guys using?Clutch(P.S. - man, does anyone ever get to actually fly in FSX or is it all tweaking! :biggrin: )P.S.S. - Well, I must be blind as a bat as I have been searching the Nvidia website about the 'Nvidia Control Panel', but I can't find any file to download?... help!

Intel i9-12900KF, Asus Prime Z690-A MB, 64GB DDR5 6000 RAM, (3) SK hynix M.2 SSD (2TB ea.), 16TB Seagate HDD, Gigabyte GeForce 5080 RTX, Corsair iCUE H70i AIO Liquid Cooler, UHD/Blu-ray Player/Burner (still have lots of CDs, DVDs!)  Windows 10, (hold off for now on Win11),  EVGA 1300W PSU
Netgear 1Gbps modem & router, (3) 27" 1440 wrap-around displays
Full array of Bravo, Saitek and GoFlight hardware for the cockpit. Varjo and HP VR headsets for mixed reality.

Glad to hear it. 6 years is a long time. Also you can use nVidia Inspector 1.94 if you want to set 8SQ Combined AA. We use it instead of nHancer these days.Good Luck jja

That brings a smile to me too! 6 years is a long time! I think I probably read every single post ever made in AVSIM for FS9 and related topics during those years. It was hard to make an old IBM Thinkpad 430? or AMD Athlon XP to run FS9 smoothly with all the addons, but they did, occassionally...(but mostly didn't, hence all the reading). Good to see you back.kind regards,
