    Hey all, finally got my C90s from Gentech. Took a very long time but it got here. Everything seems to running fine. Quick question though. What program do you all use to overclock and monitor cpu/ram speed as well as heat issues.

    I remember hearing about rivatuner, and speed fan.

    Any suggestions. Also using latest drivers from laptopvideo2go. What kind of 3mark06 scores do they post stock and is there any need to flash bios from stock to 502?

    Thanks for help, I know I should really been reading but its hard to find specific c90s stuff now with massive threads.

    CPU-Z measures cpu speeds

    speedfan measures temps of HD, video, each core of the processor, and on some motherboards, u can control the fans (though i dont think that applies to the c90s, but i could be wrong)

    Rivatuner overclocks the GPU (not called gmu). Rivatuner can also monitor GPU temperatures.

    Speedfan is useless if your seeking to speed up the fans on c90, all you can do with it is monitor temps.
