PREDATORSENSE

PredatorSense helps you to gain the edge in your games by

allowing you to overclock processors and control cooling.

Additional settings increase your key control by allowing

you to turn off sticky keys and the Windows/Menu keys.

The PredatorSense main screen

The main screen gives you a one-glance overview of your

computer’s current status, including the GPU frequency,

temperatures, and fan speeds. The screen provides fan

control and overclocking options to increase performance.

Note

Overclocking is not available on all models and configurations.

Note

The speeds and frequencies listed may vary depending on your

computer’s configuration and the power output of the CPU and

GPU.
