Hello everyone, first post, nice to meet you all! :)
 
A week ago I purchased my EVGA GTX 1060 SC GAMING 6 GB and I've installed Precision XOC, right away. I like it and I will be using it. Is there any way to increase the font size in its Hardware Monitor, though?
 
Thank you!
 
Note: for some reason I cannot upload a screenshot I took. So, please know that I am referring to the Hardware Monitor, where multiple values are shown. I am not referring to the font size of the OSD.

    Welcome to the forums.
     
    No, there isn't.

    Hi, thank you for your reply :)
     
    Too bad the font size cannot increase... XOC would be the perfect tool to monitor my new GPU if I could only see it, :P
    I am always using 125% scaling (zoom), on both my monitors: HP ZR2440w, 24", 1920x1200, 60Hz, and my secondary Dell 23" 1920x1080, 60Hz
    I've tried to change a few settings in XOC properties / Compatibility, but they did not have any effect.
    What I have observed is that if I restore my scaling factor to 100%, the tool-tips font size decreases accordingly. And when I return it to my default, 125%, again only the tool tips font size increases. The rest of the software remains intact.
     
    Is there any place on this site where I could place a request for a "Font Size" feature for Hardware Monitor, as well, like it exists for the OSD?
     
    Thank you.

    I would send a request to EVGA Complaints and Suggestions.

    Why did they make XOC so small? I have to put my reading glasses on to read the monitoring stuff.
    Same with steam discussions page, no way to make fonts bigger.

    I don't recall being so much different versus the old versions or MSI afterburner...
    But I agree it would be nice to have some more customization abilities regarding this.
     
    PrecisionX V4.2.1 (Similar to MSI Afterburner):                       Precision XOC 6.1.6:

    Asus 780Ti DC2OC. (broken fan)                                              EVGA 1080Ti FTW3 (power sensor bug)
     
    These are old screenshots.
    The text is a bit sharper than some may expect in my screenshots, but I disabled the font-smoothening in Windows.
    To me aliased text is easier to read from a distance than anti-aliased fonts, they are usually a bit more blurry-ish when small.
