Best OCing utility for GTX 680? EVGA Precision X or ASUS GPU Tweak?

[Brat Gvidon]

My ASUS GTX 680 came with its own overclocking software, but I see people overclock using EVGA Precision X. Is it the best software - what is the advantage over ASUS OC software? Should I use OC Scanner from EVGA as well?

OK, I guess a better question would be - what is everyone using? I know not everyone has EVGA GTX 680, but do people with GTX 680 from other brands also use EVGA software? Is it compatible with all brands?

I use this for my GTX 670

Precision X works just fine w/mine Galaxy GTX 680, I think it`s personal preference which one people r using, u have to try both of them to test and see which one u like, that what`s I did.

I'm using EVGA precision since it came with the first card I got... Seems pretty user friendly, easy to find everything you need, make profiles, etc. Plus it works with my G13 and G510 to output GPU usage, temps, memory usage, etc to the LCD display. (MSI Afterburner does that too).

If you want to have some what better understanding in overclocking. Then go with EVGA Precission X. But yes, you will need to learn some math. Since, all of them might be reporting it wrong.

Once, you understand how things works. Use Asus GPU Tweak. Man this software is very stable. Also, This software also reporting some of the stuff wrong. Again, you need to do the math to fix it.

So, you're saying that ASUS GPU Tweak is stable, yet reports incorrect information? How is it more stable than EVGA Precision X? Unless Precision crashes or does something wrong, I may as well use it instead of ASUS software. So far, I am sticking with +100Mhz on GPU and +400Mhz on memory overclock. Maybe I'll go higher if some game runs slow (maybe Max Payne 3?). Anyway, EVGA software does the trick! Thanks!

I'm using a GTX 670.

But I notice BOTH is reporting things wrong. You just need to do the math for it, like the gpu boost.

Which things are reported incorrectly?
