    Hello axace,

    The newest one is mod v2. You should know that some people have complained that the 2nd fan of the AW18 does not work with v2. The v2 mod is not specifically for the AW18, like v1.1.1 was. Only use v2 if your planning to use Nvidias new drivers starting with 361. Prema's V1.1.1 worked with the drivers prior to the 361 branch. If your going to use v2, then you should also use hwinfo so that you can set your fan speeds
