EVGA to Provide Voltage Tuner, Enthusiasts Already Overjoyed

EVGA is one of NVIDIA's largest partners providing the latter’s fans with some of the most solid graphics cards on the market. The company is also a favorite among computer and technology enthusiasts, as it offers factory-overclocked cards, based on NVIDIA GPUs, providing its customers with an impressive support team. On that note, EVGA has just decided to let its users in on an upcoming product, which will come in the form of a software application, designed for overclocking enthusiasts who go all out on getting the most out of their high-performance rigs.

 

According to the forum post, where the application was announced to the EVGA community, the initial version of the software will only support all versions of EVGA's GTX 260 on 65nm, 280 and 295 cards. In addition, the voltage-tuning application will only work on EVGA graphics cards and only for those users who register their graphics cards. This is rather restrictive, but then again, EVGA has created a powerful community, which has already responded favorably to the upcoming product.

 

On the downside, even if you are an EVGA graphics card user, you will require one of the aforementioned graphics card models, as the first version of the application will only be compatible with those cards. EVGA hasn't yet detailed when its voltage tuner will become available or when an upcoming version will be able to provide support to a more extensive range of EVGA graphics cards.

 

As you can see in the pictures below, by modifying the standard voltage on an EVGA GTX 295 graphics card featuring an air cooling solution, users will be able to take advantage of an increased clock speed. The VCore adjustment enables a boost in the clock frequency of 100MHz. This will consequently improve the performance of a user's graphics card.

 

The community has been quick to respond to the announcement congratulating EVGA on the effort of developing a product that has apparently been expected for some time.
