@LtMatt Do you know how to add a game that doens't appear in the tuning profile list? I have ESO installed but the application can't see it. I've tried to add the program directory and exe name but that doens't work either.

@LtMatt did you teardown the Merc at any point? I was going to do it just now but it seems the backplate doesnt come off by removing the standard backplate screws and I cant find a video or place that shows what else needs to be removed.

On a normal GPU you take some screws off the backplate, it comes off, and then a few more for the PCB. This seems to be different.

Edit: I think I understood how its assembled after inspecting the card a bit.

I tore down the first Merc I had, but it was difficult (there are so many little screws) and I saw worse results after reattaching so I decided not to bother with my second one. Good luck!

The only way I know is to manually add it (the game executable or launcher file) yourself, or to do an autodetect. If neither method works for adding ESO you may want to submit a bug report via the built in tool.

Very nice! Cyberpunk 2077 theme?

That's due to not having the setting selected within the driver. Needs to be set to recommended and optional.
