NGOHQ is saying that the new monitor controls built into the latest NVIDIA drivers aren't all they're cracked up to be. Not only that, NVIDIA doesn't seem to be in any hurry to do something about it, either. Interesting, but I still don't see the advantages of controlling your monitor via the drivers control panel vs. just hitting the monitor's own buttons...

"While it is nice to see Nvidia incorporating new features into their software, it turned out that there is an 'evil side' to this Direct Access feature."
