    Since there are so many graphs, it would be nice if you could split the hardware monitor into 2 windows. That way you could monitor all the available graphs without having to scroll. This is especially nice for people with multi-monitors

    Or at least have the same window, but be able to show graphs in 2 columns (or 3)

    MSIAfterburner.cfg file

    MonitoringGraphColumns = 1> 2

    will give you 2 columns going down .

    yes , of curse you can raise it higher for more columns

    Also you can set min width , 1 will work but pick what works for you depending on column amount .

    MinMonitoringGraphWidth = -1 >100

    Also if you want to mess with heights

    MinMonitoringGraphHeight = -1

    Nice! Had no idea I can edit the cfg.

    However, I don't seem to be able to work.

    Changed the MonitoringGraphColumns to:
    2
    1 >2
    1>2
    1> 2

    It's still only 1 column. Same with width

    Help?

    set this for starters

    MonitoringGraphColumns = 2
    when you hit detach so graph is separate you should get 2 columns wide

    To get 2 columns with graph attached you need to mess with minwidth setting too.

    MinMonitoringGraphWidth = 100

    Make sure there a space after = sign and value .

    My ">" was to show you it changed from 1 to 2 , 1 was default .

    Cheers. Didn't realised I had to widen the window for the 2nd row to appear.

    Is there any way to change the order? Right now it goes from right to left then down, just like reading a book. Any way to make it go vertically?

    Thought so but was hoping for a simpler way.

    Thanks

    One more quick config question. Is there any way to change the color of the max value in the config? Right now it's red and quite hard to see. Would like to make it orange or something similiar

    Which cfg settings will make multiple graphs display in one column like this?
