I know this has probally been asked many times before but is there anything that after setting up an overclock (eg with higher fan speeds and what not) you can then asign that to switch, say on something like a fan controller, so when the extra power is needed it boots it up?

I know the tj-10 has a ESA version:
"With 100% control over five 120mm LED case fans, three lighting devices, and four temperature sensors, the user can setup multiple profiles for all types of computing experience requiring exact performance to noise parameters."

but it makes it sound like its just fan and lighting control?


Guessing that this sort of thing isnt possible as overclocking is only acheivable through bios setting changes....but yet I am sure Ive read of software that also does this?
 
No your not going to do it with a Mechanical Switch but you can assign Profiles to most new Bioses, you press a Button (normally the F buttons) to select a Profile during Boot up (you see it on screen).

You can do the same in Windows with some App's but I have had no luck since the NF2 with a 3rd Party App.

For example for my last 3 Mobo's, the Nvidias App or the Asus App 99% of the time freezes the PC.

uguru which comes with ABit mobo does that.

Sets up profiles for overclocking and fan control. You then just select from a pull down menu when you want.

Not sure if there is anything else out there which works on a generic mobo though.
 
ive come across silverstone selling the ESA unit seperately but says it needs to be with a ESA certified mobo, and since its Nvidia offering guessing its going to be a 7XXi type thing, does say it can be changed when in windows, or atleast reads like that to me.

some-one really should make something,

you know like LCD fan reader, three settings "underclocked" "stock" and "overclocked"
