Records the 0.4.9 release checks of #69 as check 108 in docs/hardware-checks.md. The checks ran on the owner's RTX 5070 with driver 621.14 on 2026-11-12.

Passed

• Phases 0-2 on the release code (local build of 579ca4f, same tree as main 17249b9):
  • install and logon task;
  • --status and --busy;
  • Dashboard, About and the tray menu;
  • tray Revert and Re-apply;
  • gao --apply and the window's Apply.
• UAC restart: the app opens on the Optimize page and starts no run.
• Phase 3, the updater: 0.4.7 updates to 0.4.8, and the program hashes match the release zip. The elevated copy outside Program Files asks for a restart and does not restart itself.
• Phase 4, a fault in the driver library: the non-elevated copy restarts with --resume --after-fault. The elevated copy outside Program Files closes and says so in boot.log.
  • Phases 3 and 4 ran on the build of feat: lower the saved tune in 5 % steps (Dashboard, tray, CLI, stepped retest) #75 (511556e). Their code did not change before 17249b9.
• Phase 5:
  • D, the Exit question during a retest: both answers do what they say.
  • A, Abort during a retest, twice in one session.
  • B, All in one stopped in step 2.
  • C, All in one stopped in step 3, after step 2 had saved an overclock: nothing of this run is kept, and gao.json is byte for byte the copy from before the run. This confirms fix: a stopped or failed All in one run keeps nothing; the saved tune is as before #76 on hardware.
• Every stop: the card goes to stock, then the old tune is put back, and the "Stopped" page stays calm. Only one driver reset happened, the planned one in C, and the app recovered from it. The Application log has no errors.

Known, not blocking

• Choosing Exit in the tray while the Exit question is still open stacks a second question. The app exits only once both are answered.
• The first bandwidth measurement of C's memory scan did not settle (spread 2.1 %). The run went on normally.

Not seen

• The Stopping... state: each stop took about a second.
• The UAC restart carrying a non-default profile such as Quiet.
• The tray tooltip after the stops.
• Phase 6, the optional full run.
