Who

We Are?

HiAlgo is a start-up company eager to do smart things for cool technologies. Currently we are developing accelerator and other improvements for 3D computer games, but we may take on additional goals in the future.

Why

3D Games?

We are thrilled with the power of GPUs. We are fascinated with how more and more realistic 3D games are becoming. However, the gameplay experience itself is often being sacrificed for the sake of visual sophistication. We believe this can be improved. Motion can be smoother. Shooters can aim easier. Games can be more responsive.

The acceleration engine we are developing -- HiAlgoBoost™ -- is what we believe to be the answer. It has been extensively tested on the popular and graphically demanding game Skyrim™. HiAlgoBoost evoked quite enthusiastic responses from many laptop and desktop gamers, and this encourages us to continue development.

  • 11/24/2013 v0.3    - first "official" release
Dec 24, 2013 - HIALGO CHILL 0.3 RELEASED

This is the first official release of the tool that should be useful for computers that overheat during the game (among them - many powerful, high-end rigs). When these computers overheat, they automatically restrict their performance, thus negatively affecting the gameplay experience.

Hialgo CHILL solves this problem differently. It does not wait for overheating, but rather restricts CPU and GPU performance when there is no much action in the game. During the action you immediately get all computer power back.

This is what we call KEEP COOL AND FULL AHEAD!
