![]() This is assuming you haven't damaged the CPU, of course. Yes, the warranty should be restored if you've reversed your CPU or GPU overclock and all the settings are now back to their default values. Is the Warranty Restored If I Reverse the Overclock? However, there is absolutely no way for the vendor to know unless you willingly tell them you overclocked it. Technically, yes, it does void the warranty of your CPU and GPU since you're exceeding the processor's default specs. Furthermore, CPU and motherboard manufacturers often build with overclocking in mind, producing special hardware that suits overclocking. Processors and graphics cards are now much more capable of handling heat because cooling systems have improved over the years. Hi Nate152, Does the MSI Afterburner support SLI? *Thanks great Tutorial.Overclocking is not as dangerous as it once was. If you have any questions please ask, when you get it working please post a screenshot playing your favorite games.Ģ) MSI Afterburner version 4.2.0, click the downloads tab. On the sensor settings page click the OSD(RTSS) tab, I selected Virtual Memory Committed as an example, highlight it blue then put a checkmark by "Show value in OSD", it will then show yes under Riva Tuner to show in the on screen display, do this with any settings you want then click ok. It brings up the sensor status page, at the bottom right click the gear to bring up the sensor settings. You can show alot more stuff with HWinfo, open HWinfo and click the sensors tab. To change the color and size of the text, on the bottom right of your screen bring up Riva Tuner Statistics Server, change the color with the On_Screen Display palette and make the text bigger or smaller with the On-Screen Display zoom slider then click ok. Second line MEM - GPU memory clock, GPU memory usage Once you have what you want displayed let Afterburner open and fire up a game, what you selected should be showing in the upper left corner in purple, I changed the text to white and here's what I use from top left to right.įirst line GPU - GPU Temp, GPU Usage, GPU fan speed, GPU core clock, GPU voltage You'll have to put a checkmark to the left of Framerate and GPU voltage before highlighting them. Highlight each one you want and check the box beside show in on screen display, make sure each one you highlight shows "in OSD" beside it. You can use any and all you like, I'll just show you the ones I use so let's start with the GPU Temp.Ĭlick the monitoring tab, click on GPU temperature and highlight it blue then down near the bottom left check the box beside "Show in On-Screen Display", beside GPU temperature will now show "in OSD". Now we're ready to show things on screen while playing games and there is a lot to choose from. Click the gear and on the General tab check the two boxes "unlock voltage control" and "unlock voltage monitoring" then click ok. You now have this, the settings button is the gear which is circled in yellow. Down under user interface skinning properties tick the little arrow and select "Gaming Afterburner skin by Derex Design" then click ok. You can use the default skin but I'll show you real quick how to change it to a better one.Ĭlick settings to bring up the properties, at the top right click the arrow pointing to the right until you see the user interface tab. Once you get those installed click on the Afterburner desktop icon to open the program. Most of you will have a 64 bit operating system installed, under the native 64 bit version click download installer, local (u.s.) then click run.Ģ) MSI Afterburner version 4.2.0 is what I'm using, 4.50 is the latest. ![]() You can install HWinfo and use the OSD settings in there but is not necessary. I'lll be using MSI Afterburner but works with EVGA Precision X too. Here's a little guide to see gpu information, cpu temps, system ram usage and frames per second on screen while playing games. ![]()
