Overclocking tools for Nvidia GPUs suck, I made my own

I've put code in the gist, just in case. Also "added" (just different dll name) 64 bit support. https://gist.github.com/Randl/a055a45cb6960019e0324130c96123...

This 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...

Nice, 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?

Total 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.

Yeah, 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.
