Programs

Wrappers

Graphics

  • dgVoodoo2 - Probably my favorite 3dfx / D3D wrapper with a lots of options. Sadly limited compatibility.
  • nGlide - Most popular 3dfx wrapper.

Input

Messangers

  • Discord
  • HexChat - Pretty much the best free IRC client. Can be easily configured to work with PCGW's IRC.
  • Chatty - For use on Twitch IRC only.
  • Janetter - Probably the best Twitter client, that isn't build into a browser.

Graphics

  • Paint .NET - Bitmap graphics editor. Easy to use.
  • GIMP - Still probably the most powerful, free alternative to Photoshop.
  • InkScape - For Vector graphics.
  • Greenshot - My favourite programs for doing screenshots out of a system with tons of cool options.

Memory scanners

  • Cheat Engine (no link for safety)

Performance testing

Streaming related

Players

  • VLC - A nice, all in one Video player solution.
  • WinAmp - because sometimes old is still the best.

Other

  • ROCCAT PowerGrid - A neat program, which basically turns your mobile phone into a remote for your PC.
  • Putty - Because have to connect through SSH somehow.
  • Audio Router - Because Microsoft and many of the program devs are lazy.
  • Agent Ransack - Because Windows search is not very good.

Boot

  • Hiren's Boot (I think 14 was a better one)
