I should probably clarify I'm only running old games on this and nothing latest and greatest

Does anybody else have this? It looks fishy af but I've found a few choice reviews from places like PC Mag

I'm on a MacBook Pro and HOO BOY apparently some of these drivers haven't been updated in almost half a decade according to Driver Booster. I think that explains how well my search for drivers has gone smh

They're scams. Malware, cause more problems than they allegedly solve.

the only thing i can think of that would boost your gpu would be overclocking it. I've never heard of a program that would just be a driver booster

it's just a driver updater.

tl;dr: being that it comes with risks, such as installing the wrong drivers. it's not malware.
