MSI Afterburner 3.0.0 Beta 14(2013-08-16)

Very nice new feature! Thanks once again for your "non-stop improving" mode.

 

That must be the reason my performance was degraded so much when recording Dishonored. My comparison with DXTory meant that my degradation in performance was ignored/overlooked.

I really don't want another argument with you so I will just say thanks for your attention to the performance issues when recording Direct3D9 via the QuickSync plugin.

 

Unwinder, thanks for the work you´ve been doing so far with this great software.

Any change a future beta version can allow to show real-time voltage monitoring on a R7770-PMD1GD5? I can change voltage fine but can´t monitor it. Is it possible to implement or just can´t be done? I would like it for learning purposes.

 

Thanks.

 

just want to say big thanks to unwinder for your time and work !

In trying this, I encounter the following error trying to save the cfg file after editing in notepad:



I'm administrator, so I shouldn't have any access issues. Ideas?

 

If I remember right, what I did was copy file to desktop , edit it there then move it back to AB folder .
I think I closed AB to before doing it .

Make sure under permission your user name has full editor support (under properties>security ) of the folder

never tried admin on notepad , that might be easier .

Edit: I just checked trying to make notepad run with admin rights under properties and its all grayed out .
I don't have issue anymore with editing directly , so not sure What I did but pretty sure I ran into access issue first time I tried to edit it .

 

Thanks, I can edit the file now. The only change I've seen in Afterburner is a my voltage reading is now missing from the perf logs. I guess this means my 680s don't have the NCP4206 controller.

 

Did you tried using the 3:20h parameter instead of 4:20h?

e.g:

VDDC_Generic_Detection = 0
VDDC_NCP4206_Detection = 3:20h

 

The latest Intel Driver (9.18.10.3165) for HD4000 apparently causes issues with Quick Sync. I had to revert to an older Version to get it working. Other software like MediaEspresso and Action! is affected as well so it's not solely Afterburner related.

I noticed that recording with Afterburner using Quick Sync causes 100% CPU load and Framerate drops to <20 while recording with Action!, with Quick Sync as well, has a much lighter CPU load and minimal frame drops. Am I missing something obvious or why is there such an extreme difference?

 

Hi there I have a Question for the new Voltage Mod with the Hardware Profiles. I have a GTX 690@water. With Mod I can go high to 1300Max at Vcore now. When I start 3DMark or a Game the MSI Afterburner OSD shows around 1.2V GPU Voltage (I am not using more in the Moment) und a Core Speed at around 900MHz. But when the Benchmark runs and the Turbo kicks the GPU-Speed high to 1150 MHz, but the Vcore lowers down. With Mod @heavy load the Voltage is lower (between 1,65-1,69) than without the Mod. Without the Voltage-Mod the GPU-Voltage is nearly the hole time at ist Max with 1,75V under Load.

I edit the 2 GPU BIOS for the GTX690 with a Power Target @150 and after that with PowerTarget @190 but is the same. I only see the higher Voltage when there is no Load on the GPU's.

Does someone tried it by himself with a GTX690 and saw an benefit?

 

Sorry my english isn't the best, I am from Germany. What you mean exactly, the Voltage thats been shown in the OSD is not the real Voltage when using your Mod?

But why its shows the higher Voltage without Load?

You mean to ignore the lower Voltage thats been shown?

Thank you for this mega fast reply

 

Nvm.

 

Thanks, that worked for me.

The CPU load is now a bit lighter with the new driver but the framerate still drops way too much during recording. I'm still curios as to what Action! does different while recording with Quick Sync
