I'm planning to dip my toe in the overclocking waters once I receive my 1080 TI preorder, as it sounds like Pascal cards are known to overclock pretty well, and they seem to be advertising just how geared-up the new TI card is for big overclocks.
Only issue I have is - I've installed the EVGA Precision X app before now, just to control fan speeds, and I hated it! I'm pretty sure I actually felt my eyes burn a little.
It seems MSI Afterburner is currently regarded as the best overclocking app... but oh dear god! It seems every manufacturer has their own horrificly ugly skinned nightmare of an app, with clunky interfaces, unreadable garish fonts, awkward stylised curve tweaking graph windows, etc, etc...
Is there really no Pascal-feature-compatible overclocking app that just has a normal, clean, unskinned interface, that quietly loads into the system tray, and takes up a minimum amount of system resources?
Please tell me I'm not stuck with these things! My Asus Xonar systray app is bad enough... I'm not sure I can handle another!
(I would've guessed nVidia Inspector was an option, but I've read a few comments about it not really being a good tool for overclocking, and that it doesn't support certain overclocking settings presented by Pascal cards. Is that the case, or would the latest 1.9.7.8 (Nov 2016) release be usable?)
