In their own words

GALAX Xtreme Tuner Plus

GALAX Xtreme Tuner Plus lets users monitor and adjust GALAX graphics cards from a mobile device. It shows card temperature, frequencies, and fan speeds in real time, with controls ranging from 1-Click OC to more advanced overclocking. The app can also change fan speed and RGB effects remotely; up to 20 ARGB effects are available on specific cards with ARGB features. To link a phone or tablet with a PC, users scan a QR code in the PC app or enter the computer’s IP address. GALAX requires both devices to use the same SSID for wireless linking. The app can capture system status for sharing on social media. Android, iOS, and Windows are listed platforms, and a Windows download is provided for gaming gear support and GPU only. The iPhone app is listed at free and requires a GALAX graphics card and Xtreme Tuner PC software. GALAX says its Hong Kong company was founded in 1994 and was formerly known as Galaxytech.

HyperX NGENUITY

HyperX NGENUITY is free Windows software for configuring compatible HyperX gaming peripherals. The current version supports listed HyperX controllers, headsets, keyboards, mice, and microphones. Audio controls include microphone and playback settings, 12-channel Spatial Audio, parametric and graphic EQ, AI Noise Reduction, a compressor, and a limiter. Users can make macros that trigger multiple actions from one key or button, tune mouse sensor settings, and choose built-in or custom RGB lighting effects. Lighting profiles and game lighting effects are supported. NGENUITY can be used with OMEN Gaming Hub, but HyperX recommends controlling RGB lighting with just one app to avoid conflicts. The software is in active development, and HyperX says some features are not fully implemented. Custom lighting is not currently available with Instant Pair. NGENUITY and NGENUITY Legacy are both Windows-only; Legacy has limited support and maintenance after August 2025. For product support and troubleshooting, HyperX directs users to its Care Teams.
