EVGA's Precision X1 overclocking gets an overhauled voltage-frequency curve tool after the New World GeForce RTX 3090 debacle
Following a recent incident when a number of EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 cards died after players ran Amazon's New World MMO, EVGA released a major update to its Precision X1 overclocking tool. Precision X1 1.2.7.0 offers two new features - an overhauled voltage-frequency curve modifier, and a frame limiter which synchronizes with the frame limiting option in the NVIDIA control panel.
Both of these features appear to focus on deliver additional stability when gamers operate EVGA cards under heavy loads. EVGA claims that the voltage frequency curve editor features better graph visualization. VF curves are a power-user approach to overclocking, allowing users to specify the exact voltage the GPU core should run at, at different clock speeds. A more fine-grained VF curve visualizer could help users draw better VF curves that deliver clocks without compromising on stability.
Precision X1's frame limiter also received a tweak. It's now synchronized with the frame limiter in the NVIDIA control panel. This makes it easier for users to set a frame limit - from either the Precision X1 app or the control panel - and then have that reflected across the board.
