This program has great potential .

2 things :
the cpu which is now updated as fast as taskmon is flashing too fast for my eyes . it would be great to see only a 5 second average or so . or otherwise a graph .
secondly , it does not recognize my second core on my intel xeon E5420 (2.5ghz) . it doesnt show temperature and when i check in options it sais that it disabled monitoring for cpu 2 . There is no way to enable it as it is not in the dropdownlist like all the other cores are .

Regards ,

I like it as it is just because it's easily recognizable - you see a big red square in a screenshot, OCCT is there. I'll keep the design as is, with minor modifications, but i like it the way it is ;)

oh, and BTW, i'm alone behind this program, and it is not my main job, i do it for fun only ( i have a full-time job and a girlfriend to deal with while developing).

I find the app good looking enough the way it is - it is much better that the grey-ish apps you see around, or the interfaces of Prime95 and orthos... Just say you don't like the design, not that i should hire a designer, and i guess people will understand more clearly what you said ;)

Well said. Thanks for a great App!!! I write code for a living and I know how many hours you must have put into making this app work. It is my first choice to test new overclocks.:toast:

Tetedeiench : Here is what 15 minutes of polishing the design can result in:

Removed the jaggy pixelated curvy edges, the offset text and stuff like that

If you want I can send you the PSD

Edit: For some reason the forum is interpolatig images... and makes them look a little worse than they are (at least on my pc), click to see it the way it should be: http://img211.imageshack.us/img211/260/occstoz2.png

It looks much better imho, but for the on and off buttons i don't really like (plus i would not be able to do the graphics like "mouse over" "disabled", etc.

Can you send me the psd to iench 'at' ocbase 'dot' com ? i'll work on it and integrate yours (well, at least, part of your design). But true, it looks much better, i like the "bumpy" feeling it has.

Oh, and be aware that there are a few programming issues, mainly implying that modular parts (monitoring, sysinfo, the parts whose size do change) need to have a background of the same color from top to bottom (i'm using "lines" that stack up).

And if you could make the buttons a tad less shiny, and in the following state :
* Normal (as on your screeshot)
* Lit (the mouse is over)
* Down (user clicks on it, usually i take the lit one and make it darker)
* disabled (unlit, dark...)

I would be really happy :)

Is it normal to get CPU usage drop to 50% or it is my system .

Edit 2: The GPU OCCT is insane it took my 4850 Zalman cooled to 90c , the highest i have ever seen with that card was 70 @ stock
The GPU MEMTEST gives me 4418 error along the 10 loops , it starts with 4200 error in the first loop

For linpack Yes, there's always a CPU usage drop.

GPU OCCT : told you it was good :)

GPU Memtest : can you tell me : what card do you own, and which drivers are you using, under which OS ?

I agree that looks much better. However, I personally don't care what the program looks like as long as it works and works well. I can't wait for the proper SLI/CF support for GPU testing, hopefully it will be able to support not only dual GPUs, but tri and quad configurations as well! :D Great work Tetedeiench!

Edit : it is working fine with my 8800GT so it is something with ATI

too bad occt crashes windows into a blank screen on vista 64, or has this been fixed???

Works fine here.

edit: tested with the new CPU, think you might have a slight issue with your Nehalem compatibility.. :p

AIO multi-component stress tests, this has great potential.
Testing now on vista64 and no problems seen.
Looking forward to the final product!
Thanks :up:

When it comes to testing systems or doing some stuff you just really really want to work thumbrule > uglier is better works really well.
Its great we got people who make these programs so even idiots like you can use it.

We don't need a nice thread to break down into name calling. You're breaking forum rules by doing so.

What is the issue? It seems to work for me.

In testing my current OC with the beta version, I selected OCCT testing with medium FFTs. I believe that this is the same as the old mix? But, my CPU load does not go to 100% in all cores -- in fact, it only goes to 100% in one core and the rest as low as 60-75%. Do I need to select anything else?

And when I set up 2.0.1 with speed fan, I remember it giving me a hint about which values to use (a short strig from speed fan?). This version only gives me the raw values and I need to guess. Is this part just not fully implemented yet?

Thanks!
(Oh, system in sig).

Then again, I'd rather have people concentrate on actual content rather than on the outlooks. This applies to everything. Games, apps, hardware, cars, girls...

OCCT has great content indeed, and now it has great outlooks, not too blingish. :up:

(Though, the old layout and looks made OCCT be and feel OCCT. It was unique. :|)

Only two cores get temp monitoring, and one core is apparently 8 degrees. :p:
