GPU Hardware OCing

[Asus]

Asus has a "real-time OC device" that comes with one of the graphic cards.
Hardware OCing instead of through software. And a display to show you the important info.

If only you could access GPU clock speeds via a bios to adjust speeds like CPU and Memory are OCed.

Ah, thats awesome.


I also like the heatsink and fan design.

Lol, it's quite cool in a way, but a complete gimmick, as the oc'ing is easily done in moments through rivatuner etc, and if you really want an lcd showing fps etc you can buy them separately anyways !

That would be great to OC GPU through hardware BIOS and not through software.
That's why GPU/CPU OC software utilities, will never offer stable and healthy OC results. For example; nTune utility software is nothing but trouble when used for OC, or system tuning.

Rule #1 has always been to OC hardware through hardware BIOS and never through software.

Good Luck.

Good Luck.

What for ? Lol

"Good Luck" is more than sign-off and wishful thinking.
We all need good luck, just to get by.
We need good luck; just to make it to the next heartbeat.

Is it possible to find yourself dead in the morning?..........No! You are dead.

Good Luck.

lol it doesnt make sense to say good luck with the statement you just made. also rivatuner and coolbits are great oc'ers. i would rather use software then modify the bios that could ruin the card. i 100% agree that ntune sux balls. its one of the worst system tuning software ive ever used. all it does is do what ati tool does to get your max speed on the video card but it locks up your system at a certain point.

I would never want to flash my GPU BIOS for OCing. But if you have tried OCing a CPU and memory while in windows using software and then tried it in the BIOS then you know using the BIOS to adjust settings is a a lot better (higher stable OC). And of course you don't flash the motherboard BIOS in order to OC the CPU. If there was something like that for every GPU where you could adjust the settings in a very simple manor and in hardware (not flashing) then it would be awesome.
