    The back end of the gadget was this completely revised and now combines the previous technologies (NVAPI / ATIADL) for determining the GPU status information about a single gadget.
    The concept is based on the single card layout of ATI Overdrive gadgets. It's now possible for each card from a list.
    For many of the graphics card you can instantiate the gadget as often. Even with Windows 7 by combined operation of ATI and NVIDIA cards are supported.
    Furthermore, you can now specify the portions of the displayed information itself.
