NvClock Version 0.4.1, site http://www.evil3d.net/products/nvclock projectpage http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/nvclock Introduction ============ This program allows you to overclock your nvidia card under linux. Building, installing and using ============================== Command line version only ./configure --prefix=/usr Gtk gui ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-gtk Qt gui ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-qt to compile the qt gui too (qt doesn't work very well with the makefiles) Everything ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-gtk --enable-qt make make install If you want your card overclocked on system startup, you can add this program to a startup script. Usage: ./nvclock -m --memclk : the new RAM clock in MHz -n --nvclk : the new Core clock in MHz. -c --card : selects card (default 1) -s --speeds : shows current speeds You can use any option you want. You can type -m --m -memclk --memclk= and so on. Also you don't have to enter both memory and core speeds. If you don't have any experience with overclocking, start with adjusting the speeds in steps of 1MHz. Not every memory speed can be set. This is the case for cards with DDR memory running higher then 300MHz. It's not a bug in this program, but it's a hardware limitation. Known problems: =============== - When I overclock my card the screen moves a few pixels to the left. How can I fix it? Answer: There's something wrong in the makefiles of nvclock. Make sure there's no line with -O2. Remove it and recompile. Acknowledgments: ================= Thanks go to: o Matan Ziv-Av for creatinng the original overclocking tool for nvidia cards, nvcs o Christian Zander (phoenix) for cleaning up the code o Jan Prokop for creating a qt version o Nvidia, for having good linux drivers Plans for the future: ===================== In next versions you will see options for AGP and VSYNC settings. On my PC I can' test other things like FSAA and S3TC, because my video card doesn't support them. I really like to add those and other stuff, but my videocard doesn't support them. Things you will see: o XF86Config editing (twinview, tvout, ....) o agp-settings (fastwrites, sidebandaddressing, ....) o VSYNC on/off o FSAA, S3TC o more
