Hi,
this is simply the graphics driver and is almost always out of date on these DVD's. Your better off downloading the latest driver yourself and i'll post the link below..

You can find the latest graphics driver for your card here:
Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers

I did a quick search for you and this is the latest for your card.
NVIDIA DRIVERS GeForce Game Ready Driver WHQL

This is what the software looks like.

I cannot find extreme gaming software online. This is a completely different program, And yeah. They are mostly outdated. Does this doesn't exist anymore?

Apologies! So it did have an app after all... It looks relatively new from the RGB lighting options but I wouldn't use it for anymore than that. If you do want to overclock the card their are better apps out there.

I did a little more digging and it could be related to OC Guru II? I've come across this app before when debugging bsod's so just be aware.
