My friend brought this issue, as well as the fix, to my attention.  I thought I would post it here in the hope that EVGA wants to look into/fix this or if anybody else runs into the problem.  When you install Precision X OC, it installs the font "Roboto Bold."  This causes sites like google.com to render all of it's pages using Roboto Bold instead of their standard font.  Here are some screenshots showing Google's page before and after installing Precision X OC 6.1.2:
 
Before:

 
After:

 
You can fix this by doing the following:
 
Search the 'Control Panel' for "Font" or "Fonts"

Click on Fonts to navigate to the Fonts Folder.
Search the Fonts Folder for Roboto Bold.
Delete that File "Roboto Bold."
 
Solution found here:

    Deleting the Roboto font solved this problem for me on Windows 10. Thanks!

    Since you PM'd me whining about bumping an old thread, and this forum won't let me PM you back without posting more, I'll gladly do it again.

    Ref: 
    Kind of Pointless to post in a Thread that is Over a Year Old and their are newer versions of the Software.

    You want to know why I knowingly bumped it?  Because this thread is what comes up when you search for the problem on Google.  This thread provides a solution for a problem with the *current* software that other threads do not. I wanted to give thanks and mention that this problem is still happening. 
     
    Go complain to a moderator it you actually think spending your time PMing people with your awful grammar is something worth doing every time an old and relevant thread is bumped. What a joke.
