I give up....I thought that the people on Neowin could be a little more grown up when it comes to requesting invites like this but I guess I was wrong.

I have officially asked for this thread to be closed as this has quite gotten out of hand.

It's going to happen. The only way to truely handle this is to have a mod set up a locked thread, take PM's from people with invites, post that they're available, and then let the users contact those people. Otherwise there will always be people requesting invitations.

I think the method which is (now 'was' is more accurate :D :( ) used in web2messenger invites (generated urls) are more forum-friendly and fair :) But we cannot expect a similar solution from Microsoft unfortunately...

:yes: But then again, what happens when the mod goes to bed or something? Thery need to have certain mods dedicated to it at certain times. Example: PM Mod #1 between 12:00 and 4:00; PM Mod #2 between 4:00 and 8:00; etc... Otherwise the number of invites someone has doesn't get updated and people's inboxes get filled up even if they don't have any more

      By Copernic · Posted

      Fan Control V269 by Razvan Serea Fan Control is a powerful and versatile portable utility that allows you to monitor, control and customize the fans of your GPU and CPU to keep your machine cool and running smoothly. Fan Control supports a wide range of devices and hardware configurations, giving you complete control over your computer's cooling system.

Combined with the plugin system, Fan Control is unlocked for many generations of hardware to come. Main features Guided setup process on first launch Save, edit and load multiple profiles Change the theme and color of the application. Multiple temperature sources ( CPU, GPU, motherboard, hard drives... ) Multiple fan curve functions, including a custom graph Mix fan curves or sensor togethers (max, min, average) Low resource usage Advanced tuning with steps, start %, stop %, response time and hysteresis FanControl V269 changelog: Allow only 1 service client at a time App title no longer show the full path Add service retry policy by default Fix pre-pairing issue between control and speed cards Fix a bug with ADLX % (duty) reporting Download: FanControl V269 | Installer ~20.0 MB (Open Source) View: Fan Control Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
