gpu drivers detect games, among other thing by looking at executable names
then driver "optimizes" behavior, sometimes dishonestly (reducing precision), sometimes honestly (working around game engine stupidity)

Nvidia probably doesnt officially say anything about this and 99.9% of people do not rename process name
nvidia even has an official api for a game to identify itself so they dont need to look at executable name
A lot of people use Nvidia profile inspector to enable reBar on all games and claim that Nvidia is purposely holding back performance, but doing this causes many games to crash.
