AMD Overdrive Video

It doesn't matter if you're an Intel or AMD fan...for the OC enthusiast, this tool ROCKS!
I actually hope that Intel knocks one of these out soon as well...

It will be around a year for Intel. I believe individually clocked cores come with Nehalem.

Agreed...but that's only a part of it.
This thing does real-time on-the-fly OC adjustments while running stability testing in the background on each section of the system.
Definately watch the video!

I agree it's cool. It would have saved me some time when I was undervolting my laptop.

Hits 3Ghz? Just like that? Maybe I'll pick up one of those Phenoms instead of a 3850..

If you're a gamer, you'd definitely be better off with a 3850, or even an X1950 Pro. Also, that software doesn't work with only the processor, you also have to have a motherboard with the 790FX chipset.

edit: Cool software, though. But then again, it would put most of the hardware forums out of business, without all of the "how do I overclock" questions.

It is cool software...it really makes me want to start overclocking again, looks like fun!

this makes me thing of the nvidia ntune autotune automatic overclocking / unified overclocking controls... that doesn't work worth a damn. Will this even REALLY work? we will see.

That's a fair comment...it does look like ntune. The thing that really caught my eye though was that you can test the reliabilty in the background while you tweak...

It look like something I would use to initially test out bunch settings, but I would still go to BIOS to put in the final setting thought,.
