If you click Adjust instead of Settings, you will get access to even more features. First come the frequencies:

…then come the fan rotation speeds:

…then come the voltages:

…and at last the temperature management:

You may have noticed that there is a “VGA” word in almost every window in the right corner. By clicking it you can access the corresponding settings related to the graphics card.

I have to admit that the small and not very eye-catching at first MSI Dual Core Center sidebar utility is sometimes even superior in terms of features and functionality to the original MSI Dual CoreCenter. The only thing it lacks though is the interface adjustment option that would allow to change the window color, select the font, change the graph thickness.

Unfortunately, the developers will have to work a little more on MSI Dual Core Center sidebar utility, especially in terms of safety. When we started our system with an Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 processor in nominal mode the utility reduced its FSB frequency from 333MHz to 320MHz for some reason. And it was actually a pretty harmless joke. When we launched the system with the CPU overclocked by raising its Vcore, we discovered that it rose beyond 1.8V! Luckily, the CPU with the nominal Vcore of 1.225V didn’t burst out in flames, but we immediately removed the utility from our system. Besides, it also couldn’t enable fan rotation speed adjustment for our CPU fan with a three-pin power connector.
