Rivatuner worked with my ATI4870, but not my new AMD 7870!?

    I use RivaTuner for its plugin into LCDStudio to show GPU usage/temp.

    This worked fine with my old ATI4870, but now with my AMD 7870 it's not working. From my limited understanding I think it's due to RivaTuner simply not being able to hardware monitor that card?

    Anyway around this?

    Rivatuner as standalone application is not developed anymore, please use MSI afterburner which contains the RT core.

    Speaking of that, was the RT code handed over to Afterburner guys who work on it now, then? My uneducated guess says the program wouldn't work with nowadays' hardware well enough, being several years old.
    Just curious.

    Oh lol all those nicknames :D So confusing. Judging by an interview floating around I thought he simply stopped working on it and just let those royalties fly in.

    Ta

    So the plugin from LCDStudio to Rivatuner, will talk happily to MSI Afterburner?
