Overclocking tools for Nvidia GPUs suck, I made my own
- mattdotc 10y agoThis is really cool. Thanks for writing it up. I have also felt for while that the tools are terribly designed/clunky. Maybe one day, hardware manufacturers will drop the cliche 'gamer aesthetic'... maybe...
- brokenmachine 10y agoNice, I love reverse engineering posts. You'd think Nvidia would want people to actually be able to use their hardware. Why try to hide the API and fight a battle with the only people you should be helping, your customers?
- mattdotc 10y agoTotal shot in the dark, but it wouldn't surprise me one bit if they licensed usage of the API to "Authorized Board Partners" for an extra fee.
- brokenmachine 10y agoYeah, you're probably right. I wonder how much value the bean counters at Nvidia attributed to "having a useful software ecosystem" when weighed up against "shortsighted moneygrab for licensing dollars". I'm guessing not much.
- EvgeniyZh 10y agoI've put code in the gist, just in case. Also "added" (just different dll name) 64 bit support. https://gist.github.com/Randl/a055a45cb6960019e0324130c96123ff https://gist.github.com/Randl/a055a45cb6960019e0324130c96123...
