THE EXECUTABLE IS NOT LIKE THE PILL--

The ETHlargementpill is "full auto", it runs for the 1080ti and is pre-programmed with memory timings.  However, the AMDmemtool is very basic and allows the user to apply each memory tweak separately.  The user must put his own tweaks in place, and understand the terms and shorthand for each tweak.

This tool is usefull for a user to put together custom timings prior to programming the GPU BIOS with straps.  An analogy: like giving a user a stickshift assembly, but requiring the user to bolt it into the manual transmission case and mounting it in the car himself.

The "*.cpp" file compiles readily if the instructions in the README.md are followed.  It reads data from my R9 Fury cards with no problem.  But, as I do not know the tweaks necessary to improve the "--current" settings, I need to refer to a memory timings manual.  The downloadable binary from the Releases page works the same as my own compiled binary.       --scryptr
