First a note,
Yesterday we had some problems with our mailing. Some of you have
received the mailing a couple of times, others not at all. Our
apologies for that. We are still checking into what exactly happened.
Our article yesterday was about the 40nm ATI RV740 / Radeon HD 4750.
Should you have missed it, check it out here please:

Rivatuner v2.24 released
Rivatuner has been updated towards version 2.24 RivaTuner is a
complete powerful tweaking environment, providing you everything you
may need to tune NVIDIA GPU based display adapters. The widest
driver-level Direct3D / OpenGL and system tuning options, flexible
profiling system allowing to make custom settings on per-application
basis, both driver-level and low-level hardware access modes, unique
diagnostic and real-time hardware monitoring features and exclusive
power user oriented tools like built-in registry editor and patch
script engine make RivaTuner's feature set absolutely unmatched.
RivaTuner supports all NVIDIA display adapters starting from Riva TNT
family up to the latest GeForce series and widest range of NVIDIA
drivers starting from the oldest Detonator 2.08 up to the newest
ForceWare drivers family. In addition to complete NVIDIA hardware
support, RivaTuner also provides support for display adapters based
upon newer ATI graphics processors. All RivaTuner's features besides
driver-level tuning options are also available on supported ATI
hardware.

Version 2.24:
Minor bugfixes:
Fixed bug in hardware monitoring module causing hardware monitoring
based scheduled tasks to be ignored due to improper initialization on
RivaTuner startup.
Fixed erroneous 100MHz memory clock reading on G9x GPU series based
display adapters caused by bug in memory clock frequency generator
source clock detection code.
File system redirection is no longer disabled when executing a patch
script under 64-bit OS to prevent the issues with missing file system
browser dialog when pressing the "Continue" button.
Heights of sticky graphs in the group are now updated properly when
manually editing fixed graph height settings in the properties of any
graph of the group.
Fixed bug into startup daemon routine of RivaTunerStatisticsServer
and D3DOverrider utilities causing these tools to be started and
reside in memory without displaying tray icon under certain
conditions.
What's new:
Added database for ForceWare 182.06.
Added Catalyst 9.2 drivers family detection.
Updated PCI DeviceID database for ATI display adapters.
Improved Logitech G15 keyboard LCD support in hardware monitoring
module:
RivaTuner no longer maps OSD text to Logitech keyboard LCD, now
there is separate "Show in LCD" option in the data source properties
window allowing you to define independent output configurations for
OSD and LCD. Previously available power user oriented MapOSDToLCD
regitry entry is no longer in use.
Previously available power user oriented LCD font size adjustment
option is now also available in the data source properties.
New dynamic LCD re-connection mode ensures proper LCD output when
LCD software is being restarted dynamically.
Added heuristic on-die fan PWM controller detection for G92 based
display adapters to provide proper low-level fan control and
reference fan duty cycle monitoring for both reference desing and
alternate display adapters using the fan connected to alternate
on-die PWM controller (e.g. Palit GeForce 9800GT series).
Improved detection algorithms for core and memory clock frequency
generators switching to PCIE bus clock on NV40 and newer NVIDIA
graphics processors. The algorithms are still experimental, so both
core and memory clock frequency generator bypassing detection can be
forcibly disabled via EnableNVPLLBypassingDetection and
EnableMPLLBypassingDetection registry entries.
Updated RivaTunerStatisticsServer v3.1.1 bundled utility. This
version is a maintenance release, it doesn't contain new features
besides the fix mentioned above.
Updated D3DOverrider v2.0.1 bundled utility. This version is a
maintenance release, it doesn't contain new features besides the fix
mentioned above.
