    Looks like Jacob decided to heavily restrict max and min voltage settings, 1.12v max for the gtx 295, even though in his demonstration pic he had the gtx 295 at 1.25v, still not bad as the card has a stock voltage of 1.0375v.

    I noticed that. Perhaps this is good since they are still going to honor warranty with the tool. :)

    maybe he'll release a "enthusiast" version or an unlocker for advanced users.

    Yeah, they probably figured that was a good voltage to keep the rma's down, it's also an indication that they must have found (through testing) most gtx 295's should be able to handle that much voltage with standard cooling. It's still a nice boost regardless, Good job Evga :thumbup:

    Ps. Other more advanced gt 200 and Hd4870 users can still use rivatuner's cli for voltage adjustment, which doesn't have such low voltage restrictions.

    Yeah but the CLI is so non-user friendly. This is much easier. :)

    Hence the voltage restrictions ;)

    unlimited voltage= high RMA for newbies. evga did the smart thing. any workaround for this tool for a BFG besides doing a bios flash??

    You could use one of the many rivatuner based voltage adjustment utilities from xtremesystems.

    Me and a friend was able to remove the brand/card model restriction, and the voltage limit. If you guys allow a patch to be posted, I will post it. (I won't post the original program, just a patcher file) However, I was unable to test, as I don't have an NVIDIA card anymore.

    Here's a screenshot of it running with the patch :)

    By "limit removed", I mean set the max to 2.00v ;) I can make it higher, but I don't think that's necessary.
