Description: RivaTuner 2.06 Windows 2000/XP/XP x64/Vista x32 Rivatuner is one the leading tweak Utility available for NVIDIA GeForce and ATI Radeon based videocards. What's a graphics card tweaker without the proper tools to do so Exactly; Rivatuner has been updated towards version 2.06 In this release we have included a huge number of stuff to keep you busy, obviously GeForce 8800 GT & ForceWare 169.04 support is here as well. RivaTuner is a complete powerful tweaking environment, providing you everything you may need to tune NVIDIA GPU based display adapters. The widest driver-level Direct3D / OpenGL and system tuning options, flexible profiling system allowing to make custom settings on per-application basis, both driver-level and low-level hardware access modes, unique diagnostic and real-time hardware monitoring features and exclusive power user oriented tools like built-in registry editor and patch script engine make RivaTuner's feature set absolutely unmatched. RivaTuner supports all NVIDIA display adapters starting from Riva TNT family up to the latest GeForce 8800 series and widest range of NVIDIA drivers starting from the oldest Detonator 2.08 up to the newest ForceWare drivers family. In addition to complete NVIDIA hardware support, RivaTuner also provides limited support for display adapters based upon ATI RADEON 8500 and newer ATI graphics processors. All RivaTuner's features besides driver-level tuning options are also available on supported ATI hardware. Minor bugfixes: # Fixed DDR2 videomemory detection for G84/G86 graphics processors. # Minor UI and localization fixes. New Features: # Added ForceWare 167.xx and 169.xx drivers families support. Please take a note that 2D/3D performance levels switching is broken in currently broken in these drivers, so adjusting 2D performance level settings (e.g. 2D clocks) via RivaTuner will also change 3D performance level settings and vice versa. # Updated databases for Detonator and ForceWare drivers. Added databases for ForceWare 163.74, 163.75, 163.76, 167.26, 169.01, 169.02 and 169.04. # Added Catalyst 7.10 drivers detection. # Updated Catalyst 7.10 certified SoftR9x00 patch script (for Windows 2000/XP drivers only). # Added ATI RV670 graphics processors family support. Now RivaTuner's low-level features including overclocking, monitoring, diagnostics and fan control are available on ATI RADEON HD 38x0 family. Thanks to Anthony Tam @ HIS for providing ATI RADEON HD 3850 sample for testing. # Added experimental support for the rest upcoming 55nm ATI RV6xx graphics processors families. # Improved RV610/RV630 graphics processors families support. The improvements cover wide range of hardware overclocking, diagnostics, fan control and monitoring features. # Added NVIDIA G92 graphics processors family support. Now RivaTuner's driver-level tuning and low-level features including overclocking, monitoring, diagnostics and fan control are available on NVIDIA 8800GT and other upcoming G92 based NVIDIA products. # Improved driver-level fan control tab for NVIDIA display adapters?Added driver-level fan control tab for NVIDIA Vista drivers. Driver-level fan control tab is now hidden on display adapters supporting binary fan control only (i.e. able either to run fan at full speed or shut it down completely) to avoid confusing beginners. # Improved low-level overclocking tab for ATI R6xx/RV6xx display adapters: Now RivaTuner supports overclocking on ATI RV6xx display adapters using DPM (Dynamic Power Management) clock frequency adjustment. Now RivaTuner restores default clocks on ATI R6xx/RV6xx by means of the driver's PowerPlay table reset if possible. # Improved low-level fan control tab: Improved duty cycle generation accuracy for display adapters using LM63, LM64, F75363 and ADT7473 external I2C fan controllers. Added low-level fan control support for ATI RV6xx integrated fan controllers. Added low-level fan control support for NVIDIA NV3x and newer integrated fan controllers. # Improved hardware monitoring module: Added ATI RV6xx DPM (Dynamic Power Management) technology support. Added 'Reference fan duty cycle' graph for ATI RV6xx graphics processors families. Added 'Reference fan duty cycle' graph for NVIDIA G80 and newer graphics processors families. Heavily optimized low-level I2C bus access algorithms for NVIDIA G80 and newer graphics processors families. Now hardware monitoring graph renderer flushes bitmap caches after each display mode change to help display driver to render the graphs in optimal way. # Improved diagnostic report module: Improved navigation via the list of diagnostic report categories. Improved PowerPlay table flags decoding in 'ATI VGA BIOS information' diagnostic report category. # Now RivaTuner also uses Vista specific NVAPI interfaces for driver-level thermal monitoring, overclocking and fan control under Windows XP for the ForceWare 167.xx and newer drivers. NVAPI usage can be either completely restricted by setting NVAPIUsageBehaviour registry entry to 0 or alternately NVAPI usage can be partially restricted just for some driver-level tasks with NVAPIThermalControl, NVAPIClockControl and NVAPIFanControl registry entries. # Added MMIO protection fallback support. Now RivaTuner automatically disables MMIO protection, notifies the user and starts in unprotected mode if the protective system is unable to allocate required protected MMIO range aperture (e.g. due to fragmented or limited kernel address space). # Added #opt tag support to driver files database parser to allow including optional driver files in the database. This token was exclusively added to provide detection of ATI's ramdomly named OpenGL ICD drivers. # Now RivaTuner uses %RTFolder% macro name when saving a path to external resources (e.g. databases or hardware monitoring log files) stored in the application folder. Power users can disable this feature by setting AllowRelativePathsEncoding registry entry to 0. # Minor UI changes and improvements.
