AMD Hosts AMD Overdrive Software on Their Website

So a company made a suite of software for their products, and released it. Big deal, right? The thing is, AMD launching AMD Overdrive is surprisingly important. Instead of various hardware enthusiast boards hosting buggy beta code, AMD hosting their software is a sign of maturity. Overdrive's upload signified that AMD is happy enough with their software to label it official, and is confident enough with the code to host it on their website.

Alright, enough chit-chat. You may download the AMD Overdrive software, which overclocks AMD processors of most sorts, and checks the overclock stability of all processors, here.

Yes they made it for the new 790fx spider platform. It will give you some options to work with on your motherboard though. Give it a try.

But how would they know :) Like when I tried to fix XFX's shitty video card by voltmodding it :cool:
I couldn't get it stable so I removed the conductive ink and sent it back. Of course, I wasn't really abusing the part. I was just trying to get it working so I wouldn't have to deal with them.

I got two bad cards from them (same problem). I told them they will never get my business again. Hard lesson XFX, now EVGA gets my business (I knew I should've stuck with EVGA after my 6800 was awesome).

Wonder if it'll do anything at all on my 790X... can't be any worse than the MSI MB tool, which wouldn't even start. :shadedshu

Apparently this AMD overdrive is supposed to be good stuff, right up there with Abits uGuru.

I wonder if this will work on my asus crosshair? I usually do all my tweaking through the asus extreme tweaker so i was curious about how effective this new software tool would be.

Hey, give it a try -- turn out it works great on a plain 790 like I've got.
