And comments of people like you leave nothing but bad smell. Not everything in this life can be purchased for money, boy. If you've never tried to provide free contibution to community, you'll never understand me.

    P.S. Congratuulations, you've just earned my deepest disrespect.
    I don't want to argue with you unwinder. If you feel RT cannot cause damage alreay then you should check again. You've made RT with all the power it has and now shy away from providing users with an easy to use GUI to manipulate voltage control. I thought rivatuner was made to access functions and manipualte settings...maybe I'm wrong

    this is for ALL users, not me.

    *any monkey can pull the sliders to max*
    exactly thankyou. so why does unwinder put them in RT? This could easily lead to an angry email for him

    He did not have anything to do with this evga voltage software
    maybe you can get alll the features you want in the pay for version$$
    I never said he made (or helped) with evga voltage software....I said precision tuner.

    It can be done as you see,so no offence but dont bash riva for your short comings.
    edit doh i type slow
    I know it can be done, but it's a long process where users can easily make a much more catastrophic error which resuts in higher voltage than was planned. The majority of users here could do all sorts of stuff to their machines through hex. I thought guys like unwinder made tools like RT to make it easier for users to accomplish what they want. Since when do users need a daddy to tell them when things are safe?

    Tell me you enjoy having to use hex to manipulate your voltages? Say it. Say "Hi, I am very much in favour of keeping RT the way it is. I think it's a bad idea to introduce voltage sliders under a new tab with warnings inplace. I'd much rather have to edit values in HEX as this is much easier for me than using a slider."

    So to turn up all other voltages in your machine all you need is the ability to read and click a slider. Everyone manages that ok. Ever heard of someone just trying 2.5volts to their cpu via slider?

    I mean c'mon.......surely he wouldn't make the slider goto 7v or anything stupid.

    Providing GUI voltage control makes it extremely easy to damage a card permanently. Unwinder doesn't want to get sued by rich noobs with overpaid lawyers. How hard is it to understand.
    Then why does he allow users to overclock their cards then? You make no sense.

    And indeed you should show at least a little respect for Unwinder's work because he give you a very powerful tool for free.
    Sorry for my offtopic but I though that here on XS I don't see that guru3D "Unwinder is jerk/rude/whatever" attitude. Obviously I'm wrong.
    Asking why is not showing disrespect. If someone makes a decision and you don't agree with it you're allowed to express that opinion. I'm not name calling, or hassling unwinder off the forum. I merely expressed the fact I don't understand his reasons for leaving it out. If he'd said it's due to the fact it's very unreliable at implementing precise voltages or something then that would atleast make some sense. The fact he's made rivatuner (which is already the most powerful graphics card/system app I know of) with all the ability it has makes me confused as now he wants to protect users from themselves. Imagine he thought that just as he started to code RT in the first place......where would we be now?

    I don't need a lecture on unwinder or his abilities. I'm perfectly well aware of the fact he's made RT for free to give to all.
