Its the nVidia icon on your right lower part of your taskbar. Its the shortcut to your nvidia control panel, thats all it is. It is not hugely important no, but its not like its bothering bothering anything either, you aren't going to get any performance increase by removing it, nothing at all.

I disable the tray icon so that it doesn't load at startup. It might, repeat might, speed up my startup times by a few seconds. I also prefer a cleaner system tray. I access the Nvidia Control Panel by right-clicking on the desktop.
