1.8 out now.

EVGA Precision v1.8.0 (2009-08-18)

* All vendor specific hardware access code has been moved from the executable file to separate hardware abstraction layer library (RTHAL.dll) to simplify the process of supporting new hardware products in the future

* Fixed GDI resource leak during monitoring window detachment / attachment.

* EVGA On-Screen Display Server has been updated to version 3.4.0. New version adds pre-created On-Screen Display rendering profile for "The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena" and introduces floating injection address hooking technology aimed to reduce the risk of On-Screen Display detection by third party applications (e.g. anti-cheat systems).

* New skin format v1.2 gives new possibilities to skin developers and reduces skin file size and runtime skin engine memory footprint.

* Reduced CPU usage for simultaneous GPU and PCB temperature readings, both sensors are being read in single pass now.

* Added workaround for SLI mode switching related issues on ForceWare 190.xx series drivers. Now Precision is waiting for the end of SLI mode switching process before retrieving any data via NVIDIA driver API.
* Includes new "Sleek Skins" by Jonttu.

Looks like a great tool do many use this? Shame I haven't got an eVGA!

You don't need an eVGA, pretty much any nVidia card will work, that's the beauty of it !

I use it over RT now Ever since RT stopping working properly with 64 bit OSs which for me was after 2.11 As mentioned above, and Nvidia card will work fine, just download ti off Guru3D, otherwise you have to register with Evga.

Been using the previous version with my Point of View 8800GTS, works well. Do i need to uninstall the current version before installing 1.2 and if i do will it remember my profiles?

Yes, it asks if you want to keep your settings when uninstalling.

once your OC is set you don't even need to have Precision running in the systray for the oc to work, even after rebooting (disable start with windows).

Been using it ever since I got 64bit.

64bit here with Rivatuner, never had a problem.
