MSI Afterburner

[koji]

Hello. Use MSI Afterburner to monitor my framerates and temperature. I have a hotkey when I want my FPS to show and if I want it hidden..

I am thinking that I want a hotkey to if I want the temps to show up or just the FPS so I created 2 profiles.

 

But it seems that the profile doesnt affect the monitoring. So even I create many profiles the monitoring settings will be the same.

Is there another way or im doing it the wrong way? thanks!

Don't use afterburner for fps monitoring, use FRAPS, its a ton better and more accurate, use MSI afterburner for OC'ing and thats it.

Nah, mate.

I feel Steam is far more minimalistic, but RivaTuner/MSI Afterburner is pretty renowned as it is.
