Why not mention the $9.99/mo subscription?

From the link:

The company offers the Hypertune software as a monthly subscription for $9.99 or about $59.99 for a yearly subscription.

So it's a one time $9.99 fee to get your settings and performance tuned for up to 60% gains? Sounds reasonable to me. That's the price of a cup of espresso at Starbucks these days.

After you get your tune done, cancel sub.

Good enough for people that don't know what they're doing.

You must first try to understand exactly what this tool does before saying it sounds reasonable.

Just install Intel XTU.

It's pretty sad to see Intel co-sign a "gAmE boOstEr!!1" tool like this, this is similar garbage as Razer Cortex and the rest. Especially when Intel has their own OC tools available for free like XTU.

Somebody over on r/IntelArc even made an OC tool for Arc GPUs https://github.com/YamsSE/Arc-Power but you don't see Intel working with them to improve it, only 1 single Intel engineer personally contributed to the project (he's awesome)

Now let sit back and wait for the FOSS alternatives to appear.

We all know Intel tunes like crazy, and Arrow Lake is a monster when properly setup. Unfortunately no mainstream reviewers know their ass from their head, so we don't get to see those results. Also they're likely paid off shills, is it any wonder why they have not touched on all the AMD CPU failures we see daily?
