MSI Afterburner Problem

Go to solution Solved by snib,

After a month or so i found out what causes the bar to show on the left hand side.

In rivatuner in settings- General - FCAT do not enable "Enable frame color indicater" as that's what shows the bar.

Hi all, am having an issue with msi afterburner.

When am benchmarking games am seeing a rgb bar on the left hand side of the game.

It happen when i clicked on frametime checkbox in settings so i thought i turn it back off, and i still get the bar.

Has anyone had this problem ? if yes how did you fix it.

Update...

I uninstalled msi AB then I deleted everything that's to do with msi afterburner and rivatuner in reg edit then reinstalled AB and everything works again.

I put frametime back on and i do not see the bar this time.

To resolve the RGB bar issue in MSI Afterburner, open the settings and navigate to the "Monitoring" tab. Ensure the "Frametime" option and its "Show in On-Screen Display" checkbox are both unchecked. Review and adjust other OSD settings as needed. If the problem persists, update or reinstall MSI Afterburner and check the RivaTuner Statistics Server (RTSS) settings. Finally, test with different games to determine if the issue is game-specific.

Hi after doing reg edit then reinstall msi AB, everything is back to normal apart from the framerate as it only shows the framerate and no avg framerate or 1 % low.

I updated rivatuner as that worked the last time to show the 1 % low and avg framerates, didn't work, it just shows the avg framerate.

I have done all the tweaks to rivertuner and AB and i still don't get the avg frames or 1% low.

 

I was playing RDR2 and when i checked the frametime box, the bar showed up.

Tried it on a few games and it shows up on them games too.

I know how to set up AB and RT it's just bugs in the apps i think.
