That would be indeed awesome! Imagine that needle always oscillating from 0 to 100...
Awesome!!!!

This is badass I need one

Aleksander · Jan 8, 2011, 07:39 PM

I was thinking.... If it surpasses the 6GHz than it restarts to 1 GHz all over again to 6GHz and so and so forth

Right. I assume that explains why i've lost physics 2 years ago

department76 · Jan 8, 2011, 08:45 PM

pretty sure i saw an analog cpu meter 6+ years ago. thought it was dumb then, too.

pentastar111 · Jan 8, 2011, 11:03 PM

A temp gauge and a volt meter and I'm set..I am used to analog gauges anyway, all of my cars have been sixties cars...have to have the tach, oil, temp, and volt gauges. Stewart Warners baby!!

.lol this is a cool yet gimicky idea. I can see some hotrod guys getting this for shits and grins.

LAN_deRf_HA · Jan 8, 2011, 11:59 PM

They sort of ruin the concept by making it so fugly. The meter part is just blah, and the giant evga logo is tasteless.

[H]@RD5TUFF · Jan 9, 2011, 03:59 AM

Petty cool I think, depending on the price I might actually buy this.

blu3flannel · Jan 9, 2011, 04:06 AM

I have my frequency in a widget on my screen, I don't really need this. Neat little showoff piece though.

Hayder_Master · Jan 9, 2011, 05:22 AM

it's old car oil meter mod???

leonard_222003 · Jan 9, 2011, 10:09 AM

Evga must be amazed people want this as we are seeing it and some wanting it.
They probably made some market research and when the results came back they were WTF ? for real they want toys like this ? well then let's give them.
If this sells then gainward , asus , gigabyte ... will follow

actually its not 1000 but 1024 (theoritically) so 1 gig is 1024 mb but on actual size you just have 99+some mb

we are talking of MhZ, the frequency, not Mbytes which is a digital storage measure

So, that discussion went really well...

gbird · Jan 9, 2011, 07:34 PM

Only if this read my CPU usages, you know from idle to load similar to the meters in a Music Studio then i would get it. Sure it has to be at least 5-10 bucks with that feature. I am sure they will make one very soon.

LittleLizard · Jan 9, 2011, 07:51 PM

It would be awesome if it had a redline on 6ghz and beyond

I'd mod it into a manifold pressure meter for my car.
