Nice list!

Don't forget EVGA Precision

Also... AMD OverDrive is complete and utter crap... just sayin...

i added the evga software.

overdrive does suck but it kinda has its purposes.

Overdrive has its places, however, what the memory manufacturer tried to get you to do isn't really its place.

One day, I'll see what I can get one of the hexacores I have about to do for ya.

added unigine to the gpu stability testing. can someone maybe sticky this thread?
