    I can't change fps color in OSDServer with this new version .

    I had to change manually C:\Program Files (x86)\MSI Afterburner\Bundle\OSDServer\Profiles\Global BaseColor=00FFFF00 to be yellow . I'm using Windows 8 64-bit

    Hi Alex,

    Can you check the time value in the shared memory headers? Maybe it changed with the new compiler (not forcing 32-bit time)? I'm getting 0 for time and something invalid for the following values (dwCommand for MACM and dwNumGpuEntries/dwGpuEntrySize for MAHM).

    When trying to run the included SDK sample for MAHM, it opens a window without drawing any content and just hangs taking CPU resources. The MACM sample opens, but I have not tried applying anything thinking the command value returned may not be good.

    Windows 8 Pro x64

    Please let me know what you find, thanks!

    - Nick

    See no problems with it here. Define "can't change" in details.

    Hi Nick,

    Yep, even without checking it here it definitively sounds like compiler related issue. I'll test and fix it, thanks for reporting.

    All

    Guys, migration to a different VC++ compiler could cause weird issues with any part of functionality. So please report any anomalities if you notice any.

    Can you add temp limit to GTX 680 Lightning?

    No, NVIDIA supports it for GPU Boost 2.0 capable graphics cards only.

    That's interesting, I thought you couldn't overvolt kepler cards anymore.

    I seriously doubt that NVIDIA somehow left new Titan voltage control active on 690 family. Sounds like trolling for me.

    OSD high CPU usage & C++ ver?

    On 3.0 beta 5 my OSD process uses about 17% of my CPU usage.

    Seems some issue with OSD server 5.0 maybe?

    I reinstalled prior build of Afterburner with 4.5 OSD and all is fine again.

    Anyone else confirm this?

    RTSS (32-bit) is the process the CPU spikes.


    Also, why include older V++ 2008 SP1 build when a more recent and secure one exsts? http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26368 is the officially supported one as includes a security issue this build patched.

    Is highly recommended you replace the one included in the package with this one. As for compiling it will have no impact as they are virtually the same just this one addresses an issue with paths.

    I have the same problem, RTSS.exe is using nearly 40% of my CPU while just sitting on the desktop.

    Unwinder thanks for the nice job, but I have the same problem on Windows 8 pro x64 :

    What´s wrong and what can i do?
    Sorry for my bad english.

    Edit: OK, found another way.
    I use HWINFO 64 with HWiNFOMonitor, works fine.

    Hi Unwinder,

    I'm getting slightly increased temps with this version compared to 3.2.1. Vrm temps have gone up 4c. I also noticed that my stock voltage of 1.112 now shows as 1.113.

    Aside from that im also getting high cpu usage from afterburner while idle as per this screenshot of task manager. Windows 8, 7970.

    Since installing the latest Afterburner I'm getting 12fps in WarZ, previous 60fps!

    Uh oh

    EDIT : Went back to 2.3.1 I think it was, the last release... working fine again :)

    The current beta has a known issue which will affect all 3rd party applications. So use previous official version for now or wait for the next 3.0 build.

    Thanks,
    Nick
