The new GPU-Z is cut off the right side.



So should it be? Or something wrong with my Win7? In previous versions were fine, and even now can not see a button to record the BIOS.

i had issues with this some time ago with GPU-Z as well, and i couldnt fix it. for some reason some things get rendered weirdly if win 7 defaults to something other than 100% on the DPI scaling.


hopefully you can fix yours by setting 100% or having w1zz do his magic, cause last time the only solution i had was a format and reinstall of windows (on a different monitor, so it defaulted to 100%)

With 100% dpi is all right. Thanks again for your reply.

This seems like the issue both GPUZ and CPUZ with ROG themes suffer from, but I've only ever seen it on the left side before. I don't understand how a theme can cause this, or why one can work fine for someone and the other won't and vice versa. For me it's the CPUZ one that just cuts off. 100% DPI

It does not matter, I am quite able to work with 100% dpi. Would not want to disturb w1zzard for nothing. 110% it would be easier on the eyes and nothing else.

ROG theme is not to blame. With a conventional GPU-Z 0.5.8 I had the same problem.

I had the same problem on a specif Win7 64 bit machine at work. The UI truncation only occure with 0.5.9. 0.5.8 was fine. It seems to be a bug that crept in.

I have a Win7 machine at home which doesn't have any problem with 0.5.9.

0.6.0 do the same thing for me.
This problem occurs only when you have custom dpi setings on predefined 125% it looks fine.

I solved the problem simply. Asked myself the question, what is more important: GPU-Z or 110% dpi. For GPU-Z i can even sit closer to the screen or put on glasses.


Edit:
By the way, i haven't issues with the version 0.6.0.

So its GPU-Z bug, not my fault.

maybe its a theme problem? i noticed your tabs up the top look too small





could be a font problem, due to your different default language?

if you compare to my screenshot, some of the fonts are different (at the very top and bottom)

i'm guessing thats related somehow, but i dont really know for sure.

I dont know how to fix fonts, just screenshot of 0.5.7, ROG version is also OK. It is the latest one working fine for me, but >= 0.5.8 are all broken (ROG versions too).

0.5.7 is not working quite right either, NoAngel.
You can see everything, but if you compare your image to Mussel's image you will see that there is supposed to be a few pixels of space between the Computing checkboxes and the bottom border of the tab page. Yours is right up against the tab page border.

Since I have no idea if W1zz is dynamically resizing the main form and client controls based on content or using fixed values, you'll have to wait for a response from him as to why it may be occuring.

The UI on all versions of GPU-Z on all OSs I've used has worked fine.

Thank You for answers.
I think simple workaround will be unlock window resize.
or at least add scrollbars. ugly but usable
