Version History:

EVGA OC Scanner v1.8.2 - Released 12/5/2011

• Added support for GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores
• Updated NV-Z to 0.2.3

EVGA OC Scanner v1.8.1 - Released 11/28/2011

• Increased tessellation factor in the “Tessy” test when heavy mode is checked (setting box).
• Removed 100ms and 200ms polling periods for artifact scanning (small polling periods lead to low GPU load). Only 500ms and 1000ms are available.
• Bugfix: GPU data was not properly updated in fulllscreen mode for GeForce cards. Now GPU data is updated in its own system thread.

EVGA OC Scanner v1.8.0 - Released 11/23/2011

• New 3D test using OpenGL Tessellation with FXAA antialiasing option
• Main skin can be changed. The skin is a simple image file (*.jpg, *.bmp, recommended size: 400x480 pixels).

EVGA OC Scanner v1.7.4 - Released 10/3/2011

• Added a quick scan option to scan only half the pixels.
• Default artifact scanner polling period set to 1000ms
• Bugfix: GPU load still enabled at startup even if user disabled it in a previous run.
• Default state of GPU load limiter: Disabled.

EVGA OC Scanner v1.7.3 - Released 8/18/2011

• Maintenance release.
• New skin.
• GPU Voltage (VDDC) back in GPU monitoring zone
• Updated with NV-Z 0.2.2

• Improved the readability of On Screen Information.
• Added GPU load in the GPU monitoring module.
• Added a warm up phase at the beginning of the benchmark.
• Changes in the main interface (skin).
• The GPU load limiter is enabled by default for high end GTX 500 only (GTX 590, 580 and 570).
• Default value for artifact scanning period set to 500ms.
• Internal 3D lib updated, refactorized. Ready for future modules.

EVGA OC Scanner v1.6.1 - Released 3/24/2011

• Adds support for GTX 550 Ti and GTX 590.

EVGA OC Scanner v1.6.0 - Released 1/28/2011

FAQ:

• Q: Why does the EVGA OC Scanner stop scanning at 2 hours? Is there any way to increase this?
• A: For safety reasons, EVGA limits the OC Scanner to a 2 hour burn-in. There is no way to increase this.
•  
• Q: Why does my card detect artifacts on stock settings?
• A: Check to make sure that you have all "overlay" programs disabled, this includes applications such as Fraps or EVGA Precision (with OSD). EVGA OC Scanner can detect these as artifacts.
•  
• Q: Why does EVGA OC Scanner detect artifacts when I move the stress test window around?
• A: On some occasions, the EVGA OC Scanner can detect a new window position as an artifact. If this happens, simply press the “reset all” button.
•  
• Q: How do I make full use of my SLI setup?
• A: SLI support is available in NVIDIA driver version 256 and later.
•  
• Q: Does EVGA recommend using the “Unlock power draw” button?
• A: For general artifact scanning, this button does not need to be used, nor is it recommended. General artifact scanning can be accomplished with the default settings.
•  
• Q: Why is the “Enable alarm” button disabled on my system?
• A: This feature is only available in Windows XP and Windows Vista. When this feature is enabled, it will allow the PC speaker to beep if there are any artifacts found.
•  
• Q: Why are my PCB, Mem and VRM temperatures listed as N/A?
• A: This is only listed on select graphics cards that have the ability to monitor these temperatures.
•  
• Q: I have an EVGA product. Why can’t I download this utility?
• A: Double check your “My Products” page to see if the part number is correctly registered. If you have any questions, contact customer service.
