5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
After successful installation and driver setup, your EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 FTW GAMING ACX 3.0 graphics card is ready for use. The card will automatically manage its clock speeds and power consumption based on the workload.
5.1 EVGA PrecisionX OC Software
For advanced control and monitoring, install the EVGA PrecisionX OC software. This utility allows you to:
- Immonitorja t-temperatura tal-GPU, il-veloċitajiet tal-arloġġ, u l-veloċitajiet tal-fann.
- Adjust clock speeds for overclocking.
- Customize the RGB LED lighting on the card.
- Create custom fan curves for optimized cooling and noise levels.
- Utilize DX12 OSD (On-Screen Display) for real-time performance metrics in games.
5.2 Double BIOS Feature
The graphics card is equipped with a Double BIOS feature, providing a backup BIOS in case of a failed overclock or BIOS corruption. A small switch on the card allows you to toggle between the primary and secondary BIOS. This feature enhances reliability and safety during experimentation with custom settings.
5.3 ACX 3.0 Cooling Technology
The EVGA ACX 3.0 cooling system features optimized swept fan blades, double ball bearings, and an extreme low power motor. This design delivers increased airflow with less power consumption, contributing to cooler operation and quieter gaming. SHP 2.0 technology further enhances cooling with increased heat pipes and copper contact area.
6. Manutenzjoni
Manutenzjoni xierqa tiżgura l-lonġevità u l-prestazzjoni ottimali tal-karta grafika tiegħek:
- Żomm Sewwieqa Aġġornata: Regularly check the NVIDIA or EVGA websit għall-aħħar sewwieqa tal-grafika. Is-sewwieqa aġġornati spiss jinkludu titjib fil-prestazzjoni, tiswija ta' żbalji, u titjib fil-kompatibilità.
- Tneħħija tat-Trab: Periodically clean dust from the graphics card fans and heatsink using compressed air. Ensure the computer is powered off and unplugged before cleaning. Dust buildup can impede cooling performance.
