I am testing it out personally after watching Jayz video on it. Seems to be pretty good so far. I only wish they would have a system tray display for my CPU/GPU temps.

Msi afterburner can do that

Yea I know. I use MSI Afterburner, but was testing this out and uninstalled my other stuff while I test to ensure no conflicts. That is my only complaint at this time of the CAM software is no system tray for CPU/GPU temps.

CAM is a bit unreliable. I personally don't use it anymore.

What problems were you seeing that made you come to this conclusion?

Taking a long time to sign in, fps recorder not always working, app is broken, sluggishness when switching between computers, cluttered UI. Now I use Afterburner. It can't do quite as much but it's much more reliable. Go ahead and try out CAM. If it works for you, then it works for you. I'm just telling you my personal experience.

The problem is that Afterburner doesn't work if the host system doesn't have a discrete GPU (I think), as it didn't run on mine...

I have the same problem and I think it has to do with the Google sign-in which kind of sucks and I wish could be sped up more. I haven't used the FPS recorder or switched between computers so I can't speak there. The UI is a bit cluttered though.

I uninstalled cam after changing my x61 color. I don't really like it.

Idk if its accurate cause speedfan says my cpu (Amd A10-7850k) is running at 40°c and nzxt cam says im running at 70°c, i assume speedfan is right cause if not im about to start a fire.
