    Thanks, will update this post later. 
     
    Interesting to see that the backplate led breathing has been fixed, I assume with appearance led.
    It works fine with LEDSync however.
    Also it is a bit unclear to me what exactly has been fixed with the Z10 display.
     
    Edit:
    I found a small conflict with the previous 6.2.5.1 BETA and Dxtory/Avast!
     
    This affects an earlier reported issue of EVGA Precision XOC not wanting to save screenshots in another folder, e.g fraps:
    Turns out, I couldn't make screenshots (and likely video's) with Dxtory anymore in the same fraps folder.
    Avast! Anti Virus ransomware shield just complained that PrecisionXServer_x64.exe tried to modify or remove the screenshot I tried to save with Dxtory in the fraps folder which never got saved
    This is the first time I have seen Avast! complaining about this.
     
    Screenshot:

     
    Renaming PrecisionXServer.exe and PrecisionXServer_x64.exe solved the screenshot failures with Dxtory.
    It also stopped being problematic turning off ransomware shield in Avast! while keeping the above executables intact.
     
    If people wish to circumvent this issue, make sure Avast! ransomware shield is not protecting the folder you want to save screenshots inside.
    It will allow Precision XOC to also save screenshots in that folder.
     
    This is just something I wanted to report for now, the rest comes later, likely tomorrow.
     
     
    UPDATE: Here is the feedback for Precision XOC 6.2.5.2 BETA:
     
    Please note that I uninstall the previous version completely and do a clean install.
    LEDSync is not uninstalled automatically with Precision XOC, so this will be overwritten.
     
    Even though many will overwrite their old installation, when issues occur they are often advised a clean installation.
    This is why I test using a clean installation of Precision to make sure the bugs do not come from old configuration files.
     
     
    Feedback on releasenotes:
    1. Add support for Breathing Mode on backplate LED
      • Issue not fixed on EVGA 1080Ti FTW3 using Appearance LED, but always worked via LEDSync.
        • [6.1.2][Appearance LED] Breathing mode for backplate LED 1080Ti FTW3.
    2. Fix switching from GUI skin causing auto fan control to stop worrking
      • Semi-fixed, does not function for 'GPU fan' curve. New issue created:
        • [6.2.5.2 BETA] GPU fan does not follow software fan curve when starting Precision XOC or switching skin.
    3. Fix Z10 display issue
      • Cannot test, remains untested by me.
     
    New issues:
    1. [6.2.5.2 BETA][iCX] Power and/or Memory fan ramp up to 50% or 100% fan speed when starting Precision XOC or switching from skin.
      NOTE: This only occurs with 'Enable Automatic Fan Control' enabled.
      EXTRA: Custom/Agressive modes will ramp to 100% even if fans should be OFF, Quiet mode ramps up to 50%.
      - Please also see below issue for GPU fan, this might be why this issue does not affect GPU fan.
    2. [6.2.5.2 BETA] GPU fan does not follow software fan curve when starting Precision XOC or switching skin.
      GPU fan curve icon is lit but software fan curve does not respond unless re-enabled.
      Result: GPU fan will follow hardware fan curve and not software fan curve.
      Workaround: Re-enable automatic fan curve for GPU fan.
    3. [6.2.5.2 BETA] Clicking on "Curve" button shows 'Enable Automatic Fan Control' as enabled even if it's disabled.
      NOTE: The same fan curve menu opened via Settings will show the automatic fan curve is OFF when turned OFF.
    4. [6.2.5.2 BETA][LEDSync 1.0.9] Disabling backplate entry in LEDSync of the same videocard does not revert back to original Appearance LED setting.
      Explanation: Backplate Appearance LED setting is overwritten by LEDSync.
      It appears that with this version the first entry is for the badge and the second entry for the backplate for seperate control.
      Disabling the badge entry (#1) in the list makes it revert correctly to original Appearance LED configuration, but not for backplate (#2).
     
    Fixed issues:
    1. [6.2.5.1 BETA] Power and Memory fan automatic fan control show as disabled after restart or switching skin.
      More info: https://forums.evga.com/FindPost/2813356
      NOTE: New issue created for 'GPU fan' curve.
      • Related to issue: [6.2.4] Switching from GUI-skin stops automatic fan control from functioning.

    3. [6.2.4][OSD Settings][Skin] Not able to set individual system tray colours for each sensor in default skin.
      Workaround: Set tray colour settings in Kingpin skin OSD settings.
    4. [6.2.4][OSD Settings][Skin] Not able to set minimum/maximum values for each sensor in default skin.
      This makes "Play alarm sound when value is out of range" useless.
      Workaround: Set minimum/maximum values in Kingpin skin OSD settings.
    5. [6.2.4][OSD Settings][Skin] Not able to set alarms individually for each sensor in default skin.
      This may be useful to ignore some buggy reportings such as framerate.
      Workaround: Set alarms individually in Kingpin skin OSD settings.

    After a reboot overclock setting set to default. Need a fix.



    After making changes to clock speed, fan speed, profiles, and other settings, enable "Apply previous settings on load" and close Precision before restarting or turning off your your PC..Some changes aren't saved unless Precision is closed after making them, same as before..And click "OK" after making changes in the Settings tabs..Should prolly work fine by doing that, it does here, otherwise not..And if you want Precision to start with Windows, enable "Start With OS" and close Precision so that also sticks.

    Best thing to do after making any changes is to close Precision, then open Precision again to make sure the desired changes/settings stick.

    Needs to be like BIOS changes.
    ie save setting and re-load or cancel out with no changes.
     
    Apply previous settings on load seems to mean we have a set of NEW setting some where ?

    Must say the software engineers seem to be working really hard! Currently not using any GPU tweaking/OC progs as I am working on something else, but feeling a bit more optimistic about PXOC going forward.

     "Apply previous settings on load" solved the problem. Thank you bob16314.

    I had 'start with os' and 'apply previous setting on load' and 'enable automatic fan control' ticked before with 6.2.4 and 6.2.5, but every time I restarted the PC or PXOC, the custom fan profile would not run (fan at 0 ).  If I clicked on the icon for fan curve, it would show me my fan profile and the fans would spin up/run.
     
    6.2.5.2 beta seems to have fixed this, and now when I restart the PC or just PXOC, the custom fan profile loads/runs as it should.

    I'm happy to test anything that needs to be tested to improve compatibility with Corsair iCue (formerly CorsairLink and also still in beta). So far, they seem to be playing together nicely.
