Softpedia Editor's Review for ASUS SmartDoctor
|
A powerful utility designed for three major goals: overclocking, monitoring and cooling.
Written by Bogdan Popa on October 20th, 2011
So overclocking has got you too… Well, overclocking is indeed a great thing to do if you have the guts to push your hardware to the superior limit, but if you have an ASUS graphic card you can do it with the help of a 100 percent genuine tool.
Called ASUS SmartDoctor (let’s just hope you won’t need a doctor after using this utility), the application has been specifically designed to help overclock the graphic adapter so that you can get the most out of your hardware.
And after testing this application, we must say that we’re pretty sure that squeezing the most of your hardware is indeed easy with this kind of software.
Installing and running ASUS SmartDoctor are the easiest two things to do when it comes to this application, because everything else might be dangerous for your computer.
So dangerous that it can even damage or break down the video card, so don’t get into the overclocking frenzy if you don’t really know what your hardware is up to.
Getting back to today’s software application, it shows you the fan speed, the temperature and the voltage, so it shouldn’t be too difficult to overclock it if you keep an eye on these stats. Plus, the application keeps you updated with the evolution of these three figures, so you will definitely know if something goes wrong.
Plus, it lets you adjust the GPU and the memory clock, but also to control the fan speed depending on the temperature, just to be on the safe side if you stress the graphic card too much.
The bottom line is fairly simple: if you believe that you’re ready to make the giant leap to overclocking and you have ASUS hardware under the hood of your machine, it would be a good idea to start with this app.
