EVGA Voltage Tuner Software Coming

jmke · 23rd January 2009, 15:39

Have an exciting new utility to show today that is coming soon

* First version of this utility will support all EVGA GTX 260 65nm, 280 and 295 cards.
* Will work ONLY on EVGA graphics cards, and ONLY for EVGA registered users.

How long before someone mods it to work on all nVidia brands ?

never if they have custom pcb

Sounds like it might require a custom GPU BIOS? Or maybe just detects the brand via the GPU BIOS. Hopefully is not a custom PCB, I am sure current EVGA owners would love to use it.

EVGA Precision Overclocking Tool works on any NVIDIA brand card.

should be made into a nice guide

Only works for GTX 260 / GTX 280 cards and a few others with the Volterra VT11xx registers it appears.

Thanks for the link Massman! Worked like a charm for my card. I have a nearly identical card to Justageek.

Like his card mine seems to error at anything over 1458 shader clocks regardless of voltage. Had to follow suit and unlink the core to clock to 700. Still testing settings and voltages, but only a slight voltage bump adds some nice headroom...

Voltage regulators are running hotter than the core temp even after changing 1.13 to 1.3v and running at 700/1458/2050...

Even a better guide on OCX: http://www.ocxtreme.org/forumenus/showthread.php?t=4427

Should be working on the 4870X2 card as well, by the way!

Hm, I get almost as good an overclock with 1.2v than I do with 1.3v. 700/1458 clocks just aren't stable at any voltage unfortunately.
