27ASUS Graphics Card Software Reference
The default setting of SmartDoctor is keep resident which means that
SmartDoctor will run every time Windows start and check the graphic
card’s status.
If your graphics card is working properly, SmartDoctor will terminate within
5 seconds.
Dynamic Settings will become available when you uncheck Run once
and terminate.
• Monitoring polling time interval lets you specify the time intervals
that SmartDoctor will take to check the graphic chip. The default setting
is 5 seconds. You can choose a longer time interval value.
SmartDoctor, however, will be less sensitive to graphic chip condition
changes.
• Enable GPU cooling allows you to enable or disable the GPU cooling
option. Enabling GPU cooling option will cool down the GPU’s
temperature when SmartDoctor detects that the GPU is idle. The GPU
temperature will then drop.
5.2 Setup
When you click the Setup button, the Smart Doctor2 Settings dialog box
appears.
If you have already installed any GPU cooling software in your
system, you should just choose only one. Running more than one GPU
cooling software at the same time is redundant.
After GPU cooling is enabled, and when you run System Monitor in
Programs – Accessories – System Tools to monitor GPU usage, you will
find that GPU usage has reached its maximum, that is, 100%. Do not
be alarmed—this is normal.
