The verdict
A free, easy GPU overclocking, fan and RGB tool that works well for EVGA cards, but it's no longer updated and often unstable on newer systems. Skip it without an EVGA card.
Great for
Owners of EVGA GeForce cards who want fan curves, overclocking, monitoring and RGB control for free
Main risk
Outdated software that may not launch or save settings on newer Windows or drivers
