Hey HF!

I own a Logitech G15 keyboard, which has a nifty little LCD screen that can show ingame stats. Unfortunately not many new games support it.

Many people use LCDStudio to show actual PC information on the LCD screen. On my PC, every 10 minutes the app throws an error, that's why I decided to make my own.

Showing the info on-screen was easy once I found out how to send data to the LCD screen. I decided to take it 1 step further, ingame overclocking!
MSI afterburner had to run in the background anyways, why not use it to overclock!

Here's a video of the finished app:

NOTE: MSI AFTERBURNER HAS TO BE RUNNING OR THE APP WILL CRASH!
I've experienced some trouble with logitech's LCD manager too, if you don't see anything on the LCD screen, check out those settings.

I have my own G15 and this is awesome. I'll take a look. Thanks.

It's a shame logitech doesn't make these anymore. What do I do if mine breaks? It's really the most awesome keyboard ever, not only because it's got an LCD screen, but it's got illuminated keys and it's a dream to type on 🙂

I don't have a G15, but this looks pretty awesome!

Thanks.
Does any of you have an idea of features I can add?
I'm always bored once I finish a project 😁

I have the Logitech G510, does it work for this one as well?

This is one of the coolest things i have seen made in VB.net soo far! I am going to have to dig out my old G15.

[Percocet]

Nifty, great job. I probably would have had a hard time doing that.

I honestly have no idea, but I think it's able to send to other devices as well.
Try it, and see if it works :/

well it looks awsome but overclocking a processor is asctually not possible ? how do you calculate interval ?

[Ingenuity]

Dammit dammit dammit I have a G19 and I'm pretty sure it won't work :(

^^^from what i see in the src its easy to change it to ....

It's pretty easy to change it for a G19, although the whole menu will look fucked up because it's black & white only, and the G15's resolution is only 160x43. Replace things like "LGLCD_DEVICE_BW" with "LGLCD_DEVICE_QVGA" and it might even work. Perhaps it needs some additional work though.

This app is for overclocking your GPU. Maybe I had to mention that in my topicstart...
For getting the GPU's temperature and clock speeds, MSI afterburner had to run in the background anyways. This app just connects to afterburner's shared memory to control the clock speeds.
By the way, CPU overclocking is perfectly possible using tools similar to MSI afterburner. It'd need more dll's and fiddling, so I decided not to put it into this app.

Didn't work. I would have really liked something different for this keyboard.
