v1.16.1 — Sword 16 HX fan RPM

2026-07-05

The MSI Sword 16 HX B13V / B14V now shows CPU fan RPM instead of "—". The fan-tachometer register wasn't mapped for this model; the owner's earlier EC dump showed plausible, load-varying values at the same address the tested GE78HX board uses (0xC9/0xCB), so RPM is now read from there. (GPU RPM reads 0 while the discrete GPU's fan is idle.)


v1.16.0 — Sub-tabs, fan-curve verification, and a tidier top bar

2026-07-05

A big usability update focused on making the window less cramped and on letting owners verify their own hardware.

Sub-tabs where they help

A new segmented sub-tab control splits busy pages into short, focused views instead of one long scroll:

  • Status is now Charts · EC bytes · Change log. The change-log view shows the last 16 entries, and each view is sized to its own content (so scrolling stays minimal). Sharpness at high DPI is unchanged — the buffered, DPI-aware canvas still does the drawing.
  • Report is now Profiles · Fan curve.

Verify your fan curve (new)

The Report → Fan curve wizard confirms the fan-curve registers for your exact model. It walks you through setting a deliberately distinctive test curve in MSI Center (Extreme → Advanced), reads the EC back read-only, and then scans the dump to find where those values landed — discovering the per-model curve addresses rather than just guessing them. If they match what the app ships, your model's curve can be marked verified; either way it opens a pre-filled GitHub report. Because the test values are unusual and differ between the two fans, we can tell the CPU table from the GPU table and rule out a coincidental match.

A tidier top bar

Report and Updates moved out of the main tab strip into icon buttons ( and ) next to the light/dark toggle, freeing space in the strip. (Icon nudging fixed so the glyphs line up — symbol glyphs centre their cell, not their ink.)

Models page

The Verify my model button now lives in a fixed white footer alongside the table legend, and the model table scrolls in its own region so nothing overlaps. The Fan curve tab gained a matching Report fan curve button, and the tray now groups both under Report / verify.

Also

  • All new UI text is translated into all 8 languages.
  • Docs: new TECHNICAL sections (EN/PL) on sub-tabs and the fan-curve tracer method, plus rendering notes.

Full changelog: 1.16.0


v1.15.3 — MSI Sword 16 HX verified

2026-07-05

The MSI Sword 16 HX B13V / B14V (15P2EMS1) was promoted from experimental to Tested after an owner confirmed it on real hardware: under Cinebench 2026, HWiNFO64 showed each profile hitting its intended CPU package-power limit, and the fan curve behaving on par with MSI Center. Also bumped the CI workflow actions to clear a Node deprecation warning.


v1.15.2 — MSI Crosshair A16 HX verified

2026-07-04

The MSI Crosshair A16 HX (D7W/D8W) (15PLIMS1) was promoted to Tested — an owner confirmed with HWiNFO64 that Silent measurably lowers CPU package power/clocks versus Balanced. The model-support request form also gained an optional hardware-verification section, so recognised-model owners can get verified in a single round.
