Default EVGA Precision

EVGA's released their own OCing/fan controller program.
Wish I could test it now, but card's in the RMA process lol.
Anyone with an EVGA card want to test it see how it compares to Rivatuner?
Seems like a WYSIWYG kinda program.

Theres not much with it, I'd say it's about as basic as ATITool without the advanced features. You can change the Core, Shader, and Memory Clocks, and theres an option to Link or unlink the Shader from the Core domain. Fan speed can be adjusted manually by clicking the button to auto. It shows the temps and current clocks in the same kind of graph chart as RivaTuner. Basically, it is what you see is what you get. That picture they show is exactly all there is, with all the "options" right there on the GUI. Advanced Options lets you start with windows or change the skin, thats about it.
Intrestingly, there is a Test Button...clicking it brings up a dialog box that says "Driver Passed Clocking Test". Guess it's a artifact checker, but the fact it takes one second to look and doesn't do anything even remotely like the Fuzzy Cube leaves me wondering.
Stick with Riva Tuner.

oOo G15 LCD support though. :P




If there is a final hour, let's hope for a higher power. One by one, and two by two, I have ammo, what about you?

Default Re: EVGA Precision

apparently the real draw is that it offers the fix for the fan that rivatuner doesn't.
Some people can't control their fans via rivatuner.
Also apparently one the settings are set, you don't need to have the program open anymore.
