MSI AFterburner & Ti Hawk

How is one supposed to improve the GTX 560 Ti Hawk's performance further? I"m using MSI Afterburner and there are quite a few settings to manipulate. Which settings directly affects the performance of the game like frames per second (FPS). The memory clock speed defaults to 950. If i increase that to say, 985 or even 1000mhz will i be able to see any appreciable improvement in BF3?
What about the voltage - how should i be setting the voltage to improve the game....???
Now that i've got my Ti Hawk's GPU temps to really low level thanks to the Artic Acccelero Xtreme plus II cooler i feel more confident to push the card's performance. Before the Artic cooler the focus was to decrease noise/temps. This has been incredibly resolved by the Artic cooler so the next challenge is to see how i can improve the card's performance.

Yes you could potetntially improve the FPS by increasing the core clock. By how much, you will need to test in the specific game.
There are really 2 ways to go about finding the max core clock. Gradually increase the core until the card produces artifacts or crashes and then increase the voltage.
Or, max your core voltage and then increase the core clock gradually until your card crashes, and then reduce it slightly until its stable. Monitor the temps and see how that goes.

How to use MSI Afterburner

The MSI Afterburner is a great tool for monitoring your vga's health status as well as overclocking it including tweaking voltages.
Monitoring
In case you came her with a vga related problems you might be asked to tell about the load and idle temps of your vga.
So first we focus on how to monitor temps.
First we start Afterburner and see this.
Just for monitoring we don't need the sliders visible as these are for tweaking/oc and we take care of that later. To the right there is a window with different graphs of all kinds of temps and voltages. There you can montiore the idle status but that won't really help you to see what happens in a game. You will only know about your temps under load in the moment your gaming and not when already leaving the game. At least the graphs will show the temps as a graph so you can read up temps of past times also but it is quite complicated to find the temp spike of the right time and read up the value.
It's easier to have the temps and voltages displayed in the game with an OSD (note: OSD doesn't work in 64bit applications). To get that work you need to activate it.
First click on "Settings"
Now go to "monitoring" in the Settings menu
In "Active hardware monitoring graphs" you can choose what should be displayed in OSD.
On the left you have the possible graphs to be selected. When you click on a graph you activate it and the symbol next to it lights up. Now you have to choose the properties of that graph. That is done by clicking on "Show in On-Screen Display" or "Show in Logitech keyboard LCD Display" or "Show in tray icon". Choosing "Show in On-Screen Display" means the graph will be shown in the game while LCD means it will be shown on a supported LCD of a Logitech Keyboard (e.g. G510). These both options are therefor ideal to checkout load temps and voltages.
Please note that there is also a graph for Famerate to be activated to even monitor FPS in games
After setting the graphs you want to be displayed just click on "ok" and you are done. NOTE: Only graphs of sensors that can be read out can be selected. Some cards won't be able to support gpu voltage monitoring hence that graph can't be selected.
If needed you can also add hotkeys for the OSD in On-Screen Display. By clicking on "More" you have the ability to mod the look and layout of the OSD as well as setting up profiles.
Now after starting a game you can see the graphs selected displayed inside your game so you can see what happens while you are gaming and you can also find out how your vga's status will change in any game situation
Fan control
After monitoring temps you might have seen too high temps and want to lower them or you want more cooling in oc attempts. Also could be you saw low temps but your card is very noisy because of high fan speeds. All that could make it necessary to change the fan speed manually instead of auto control
After deactivating auto control by clicking on "Auto" you can move the slider between Min and Max to select the fan speed in %. Setting 68 therefor means fan will be running at 68% of it's full speed. After selecting click on "Apply" to apply the chosen fan speed.
Besides a static speed you can also program a custom fan profile with clicking on "Fan" in "Settings" afterwards just deactivate auto control and activate "User Define"
Checking stability with Kombustor
Along with Afterburner the downloaded archive also contains Kombustor. Kombustor is a burn-in vga tool like Furmark which will apply very massive load to your vga and will reveal thermal and stability problems when letting it run for some time.
After installing you can start it out of Afterburner by clicking on the "K" to left
Overclocking and Overvolting
With the Core Clock and Memory Clock sliders you can tweak the clockrates of the Gpu and the VRAM. The Mhz value selected adds or reduces the stock clockrates. That means e.g. setting +65 for Gpu will add 65Mhz to the stock clockrate. Setting -50Mhz will reduce the stock clockrate by 50Mhz. To apply your oc remember to always click on "Apply"
Overvolting with the overvolting slider will work the same way what means what you set will be added to the stock voltage. Note that overvolting gpu on Kepler (GTX600) is limited on non unlocked cards (Lightning/Hawk) to the nvidia max of 1.175v and setting anything else will therefor be useless.
If overvolting is greyed out and can't be changed you have to activate it in "Settings"/"General".
Simply check "Unlock voltage control" and "Unlock voltage monitoring"
NOTE: Despite mistakable informations on the web the only MSI Radeon 7850/7770 cards able to overvolt are R7850 Power Edition 2GD5/(OC) and R7770 Power Edition 1GD5/(OC). Due to technical restrictions all other 7850/7770 models can't be overvolted therefor overvoltage slider won't be available.
Triple overvolting will only be available with Lightning, Hawk or Power Edition cards and is a unique MSI feature that won't work with any other manufacturers card.
On supported cards you can access it (after enabling overvoltage, see above) when clicking on the grey symbol next to the voltage slider
the voltage slider will then change to triple overvoltage (core/mem/aux)
Note that triple overvoltage for Lightning and Power Edition GTX680 & GTX670 vgas will require Afterburner version 2.2.3, the latest GTX 660 & 650 cards will require Afterburner 2.2.4 or above. GTX680/770/780 Lightning users must use an unlocked Afterburner version for full triple overvoltage abilities (Nvidia gpu voltage limit). Until Version 3.0.0 Beta 17 a special SE variant was required. With 3.0.0 Beta 18 the SE version has been merged to the normal version. To unlock the advanced voltage settings simply go to "General" tab of the settings, check "unlock Voltage control and choose "extended MSI"
Power Limit
The Power Limit slider is only accessible on GTX600 or above cards as it is required to modify the unique GPU boost feature. GPU boost is nvidia's auto oc feature for Kepler cards and will increase clockrate when not reaching the pre-defined TDP value under load. With the Power limit slider you can change the TDP limit in %. Anything over 100% will extend the limit and enable the gpu to boost clockrate while already at 100% TDP.
If the Power limit is not visible although you are using a GTX600 vga you chose the wrong afterburner skin in "Settings"/"User Interface" The Power Limit slider will only be visible with "Default MSI Afterburner Skin"
----> --->
Temp Limit
With the new GeForce GTX7xx / Titan series vgas came an enhanced version of the boost introduced with GTX6xx vgas. Boost 2.0 adds a Temp Limit to the previous Power Limit. So now the available boost is not only determined by the Power Limit but also by the set Temp limit. To change the Temp limit you need a supporting version of Afterburner (3.00 Beta 10 and above). Click on the down arrow next to the Power limit slider and Temp Limit becomes available.
--->
By default Temp limit is set to a target temp of 79°C what means anything below will allow max boost. Increasing Temp limit will allow boosting at higher temps. In standard configuration Power and Temp limit are linked what means increasing Power Limit will also increase Temp limit. If you want to change that and set individually uncheck "Link". Clicking on "Prioritize" you can decide if Temp or TDP Limit should be the primary factor to determine boost.
Gaming APP
Another thing which needs to be kept in mind is that maximum clockrates for the latest GeForce GTX7xx Gaming requires running >>Gaming APP<<. Switch to Gaming Mode (N770 TF 2GD5/OC (GeForce GTX 770 GAMING)) or OC Mode (N780 TF 3GD5/OC (GeForce GTX 780 GAMING)) to allow maximum boost clockrates.
Oc Profiles and starting up with oc
After tweaking clockrates, voltages and power limit you can setup five profiles with these values. Just click on a profile number followed by clicking save. Now you can change between your profiles by choosing the number of it.
If you want to startup with the oc applied just click on "Apply overclocking at system startup" and make sure the green button left on that lights up in green.
Dragon Army Skins
A nice modification for Afterburner are the new MSI Gaming series skins to adapt to the latest MSI Gaming lineup: http://game.msi.com/
Just download the skins >>here<< and copy them in your Skins folder in the MSI Afterburner main folder. After restarting Afterburner you can now choose the Dragon Army Skins in "Settings"/"User Interface". Dargon Army Skins are included by default from Afterburner 3.0.0 Beta 18 and above and can there be chosen like shown before.

Version update
Afterburner 4.0.0 final/stable is out. Click >>here<< for download.
This is a new official version.
SE version and normal are merged to one now

Changes list includes:
•   Added MSI R9 280 series voltage control support
•   Added AMD Tonga graphics processors family support
•   Added core voltage control for reference design AMD RADEON R9 285X series graphics cards with NCP81022 voltage regulators
•   Added official overclocking limits extension support for AMD Tonga graphics processors. Please take a note that unofficial overclocking mode is currently not supported for AMD Tonga graphics processors family
•   Various parts of hardware monitoring module have been pumped up to improve hardware monitoring usability and flexibility:
o   Added layered monitoring graphs rendering mode. Now you may right click source graph in monitoring window, select “Attach” in the context menu then point to destination graph to attach source graph to it and create a group of layered graphs. This feature allows you to render as many layered graphs on the same grid as you wish. The colors of graphs in layered rendering mode can be customized independently of each other so you can easily identify them
o   Added multi-column monitoring graphs rendering mode. Now you can adjust the number of graph columns in “Active monitoring graphs” section in “Monitoring” tab
o   Added “Override graph name” option to “Monitoring” tab. Now you can rename the graphs displayed in hardware monitoring window
o   Monitoring history buffer size is no longer defined by monitoring window width. Now pre-history buffer size is fixed and stores the last 3600 samples (1 hour for 1000ms polling period) for each graph
o   Improved tray icon monitoring module:
o   Now you can select either text mode or barchart indicator mode for each value displayed in tray icon. Barchart indicator mode can be extremely useful for visualizing data like GPU / CPU usage
o   Improved Logitech keyboard LCD monitoring module:
o   Ported to new Logitech API to provide support for newer Logitech LCD displays
o   Added support for color LCD display of Logitech G19/G19s keyboards
o   Added graph mode support for color LCD display of Logitech G19/G19s keyboards. Now in addition to previously available text mode you can optionally select graph mode and see exact copy of MSI Afterburner’s monitoring graphs displayed directly inside the keyboard LCD.

o   Added acceleration support to LCD scrolling implementation
o   Added larger 8x12, 10x12, 12x12 and 12x16 fonts support for text mode
•   Added “Regional settings” section to “User Interface” tab:
o   Temperature format settings allow you to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit format for monitored temperatures. Please take a note that this setting affects temperature readouts only. Hardware related temperature adjustments (e.g. fan speed to temperature mapping curve for all cards or temperature target adjustment for NVIDIA Kepler series) are always being displayed and adjusted in Celsius for maximum unification, safety and compatibility
o   12 hours / 24 hours time format settings allow you to configure time format for On-Screen Display and hardware monitoring window
•   Added “Enable low-level IO driver” option to the “Compatibility properties” section in “General” tab
•   Added SLI sync performance limit graph for release 340 and newer NVIDIA drivers
•   Display device enumeration implementation has been modified slightly to allow monitoring Intel iGPUs when low-level IO driver is not enabled
•   Improved handshaking algorithm reduces the risk of seeing multiple running instances of child processes (e.g. RTSS)
•   Optimized hardware polling for NVIDIA graphics cards
•   Optimized hardware polling for multi-GPU systems
•   Added SVI2 voltage control support via AMD ADL SDK to provide compatibility with future graphics cards
•   Added automatic prerecording settings to “Videocapture” tab. When you enable automatic mode prerecording session is being started automatically on each 3D application startup. Please take a note that in this case you can still use video prerecord hotkey to stop then manually restart prerecording session if necessary
•   Drastically improved skin engine:
o   Improved skin compiler gives more detailed error messages when skin compilation fail due to error in some source image file
o   Source image file format is no longer limited to 24-bit BMP files only. Now skin compiler supports all possible bit depths for BMP format and fully supports PNG format with alpha channel
o   Added built-in bitmap effect for extracting alpha-channel from PNG image files
o   Skin format has been upgraded to v1.3. New format supports alpha channel based transparency for skinned window, allowing skin designers to define semi-transparent skin areas, apply antialiasing to the skin window edges and so on
o   Added new skinned window composition modes support and “Skin composition mode” settings to “User interface tab”. New settings allows you to use one of the following modes:
o   Traditional mode – suits best for backward compatibility with existing skins and performance testing
o   Layered mode with colorkey - provides much faster rendering of skins with non-rectangular window shape and additionally allows you to adjust transparency of skinned window
o   Layered mode with alpha – provides per-pixel alpha channel support and advanced visual effects for compatible skins and also allows you to adjust transparency of skinned window
o   Skin format reference guide has been updated to v1.7 to document these changes
o   Improved implementation of rollback to default skin
o   Full skins cross-compatibility with other overclocking applications based on RivaTuner engine. Special GUI transformation layer allows you to use the skins designed for third party RivaTuner based overclocking applications and makes the process of migration to MSI Afterburner from such overclocking tools much more comfortable for you. You can keep the look and feel of your preferred overclocking application and at the same time enjoy extended MSI Afterburner’s features including full range of supported graphics cards, industry leading powerful and robust monitoring module, flexible video recording features and many more
•   RivaTuner Statistics Server has been upgraded to v6.2.0
The added MSI R9 280 series voltage control support might be what many of the users of these cards are waiting for as the majority lacked any overvoltage support so far. After release of 4.0.0 final there will be no more public betas of Afterburner but private testing as said before.

MSI GTX 560Ti Hawk Question

Just a quick question to start with, how many RPMs should my fans be doing at 100%?
I have a feeling something is going horribly wrong with my new card.

Use MSI Afterburner to adjust the fan speed - you can draw a graph and dictate how much the fan should be working against a given temp.
Is the MSI GTX 560 Ti Hawk the most problematic card.....i mean EVERYONE complains about fan noise and temps. If i had read the forums first before buying the card....i wouldn't have bought it.

Msi gtx 560ti hawk running always max clocks

Hello.
My msi gtx 560ti hawk running always max clocks.
OC core clock up to 1000MHz gives similar results.
OC core clock past 1000MHz will stuck it at 1000MHz. Example i set core clock to 1040MHz and run 3DMark11,but
during the test it never exceeds 1000MHz.
Card is 15 months old and worked normally so far.
My OC results before was
core clock 1000MHz Core Voltage 1.075V
core clock 1040MHz Core Voltage 1.088V
core clock 1100MHz Core Voltage 1.100V max temps ~78C
I never raised core clock over 1100 and memory clock over 2275.
Things i'm done so far
used 310.90 310.70 306.97 306.23 301.42 drivers
disabled antivirus
mounted card out of the case and switched vbios in silence mode
used Afterburner 2.2.3 Evga Precision X
reinstalled windows7
reverted cpu to stock clocks
Any advice?

No! Nvidia controlpanel was set to max perfomans and windows power options to high perfomance.
I changed nvidia to adaptive (windows stayed high perf) and now the clocks to come down again.
Thanks Svet!
There is still a OC problem when i set core clock over 1000MHz.
I just ran 3dmark11 at following overclock core 1040MHz
shader 2080MHz
memory 2100
core voltage 1.075+0.013
In results window the 3dmark11 says core clock 1040.
Afterburner 2.3.1 monitoring window says max core clock 1000
shader 2000
memory 2099
Although i´m not seeing shader adjusting bar in 2.3.1, there are only core clock adjusting bar.
But adjusting a core clock will adjust shader x2. Am i right?

MSI N560GTX-Ti Hawk PerfCap with Dual Monitor setup

Hi guys,
as far as I'm concerned, there shouldn't be a PerfCap when running a setup with two monitors on extend desktop setting, am I right? However, my GTX560-Ti does PerfCap and sometimes even does this while gaming (which is incredibly annoying). The only way to get it to clock up again is to reboot my PC.
My question is, why is that and how can I get rid of this behavior? I already tried updating the VBIOS but it didn't help.
Thanks in advance
Monsterkater

I'm sorry, I thought "PerfCap" would be a known term.
As the title states, it's a MSI N560GTX-Ti Hawk. The Card is clocking down, GPU-Z reports "PerfCap Reason: Util" which is, according to Google Search, because it isn't challenged enough. However, when running a dual monitor setup it should (again according to Google Search) always run at the default speeds (950/1050/1900 Core/Memory/Shader). I have updated my signature to show my system details as listed in the Posting Guide.
The temperatures under load are okay, the highest I have seen was 76°C GPU, 74°C Memory and 69°C VRM (all of them measured with MSI Afterburner). I have tried several drivers including Beta drivers and always checked "perform a clean installation". I also tried updating the VBIOS. I didn't know what else to try because Google Search doesn't yield much results for this.

MSI 560GTX-Ti Hawk - Very high Memory Temp issue

Ok, I really don't want to hijack the other thread, so I'll start my own. I installed my MSI 560GTX-Ti Hawk last night, and noticed extremely high memory temps while playing Dragon Age II. Tonight, I was able to investigate this a little further, and found that my memory temps will stay consistent for a while, and then spike suddenly. For example, I had DA2 running. I was just staring at the same location (not moving in-game). I had the mem temps on the on-screen display, and would look over every few minutes. For about 20 minutes, the memory temp was locked at about 60C. Then, all of the sudden, I had a reading of 95C. I alt-tabbed out to Afterburner, and saw that there was a sudden spike.
There was no reason for this spike to occur (no voltage/clock/fan changes). However, once the temp spiked up, it didn't want to go down. After closing out the game, the temp would (VERY slowly) start to go down. After a while, the was a reverse spike, in which the temp dropped big time (opposite of how it went up). It almost seems as if the heatsink is coming out of contact with the memory after the temps have been high for a while, at which point the temps go REALLY high.
Has anybody else experienced this? I am thinking of RMAing the board since I can duplicate this consistently, and it's not just a random freak occurrence. While I haven't had any problems with corruption in-game, I am thinking it might be best to swap out the board before problems occur.
Thoughts?

Check with another game - if it happens there as well
RMA
Haven't tried it on another game, but ran folding@home (GPU3), and it did the same thing. I think I am going to call Newegg and RMA it.
Quote from: AbogadoUBA-USA on 24-November-11, 18:59:13
what BIOS you have? for another way
your GPU temp is too much high
check your GPU ambient with AIDA64 playing 20 minutes, if you have a high GPU ambient temp, your problem is your case
I don't know which BIOS I have. Whatever came with the card.
The GPU temp topped out at 78C. That was at stock voltages, and running Dragon Age II with max settings (DX11, and all options cranked), with the video card's fans on "Silent Mode". I don't know the card that well, so I don't know if that is normal or not. Ambient in the room was about 72F. My case is an Antec P182. I have 2x120mm exhaust fans running.
After adjusting the GPU core voltage, I could get the card down to about 71C in the same game, and the fan wouldn't spin up past 48% or so (virtually silent).
It's the memory temps that are concerning me, and it particular, the way they seem to spike all of the sudden for no reason. I think I am going to RMA it, and see if my replacement card does the same.

MSI GTX 760 HAWK low overclocking/core voltage lock

Hello, I bought the gtx 760 hawk and i tried to overclock it, but it's overclocking potential is very low. Furthermore if I change core voltage +12mV in afterburner nothing changes. Voltage is still stuck at 1.200. There's absolutely no difference. I use ver. 3.0.0 beta 14 of afterburner. Please help.

GTX 760 NVidia specs
Base Clock 980
Boost Clock 1033
MSI N760 Hawk
Base Clock 1111
Boost Clock 1176
That is what the card is guaranteed to prvide you with.
Additionally, MSI provides voltage and clock adjustments to allow users to potentially OC it even more (no guarantee). Each individual sample will yield different results. We have users that had to RMA cards because they were unstable even at the guaranteed OC'ed speeds.
Quote
I see in some reviews that they reach the power limit at the level of 185%
Review sites receive cherry picked samples that have been pre-tested and the results are indicative of what the best of the range may do. All the manufacturers try and have their best samples reviewed for obvious reasons.
The MSI Afterburner releases will be updated when Unwinder and the rest of the development team get around to it. Read the dedicated threads in guru3d

MSI Afterburner no longer working in DayZ Standalone

Hello everyone,
I have been using MSI to record my game play for some time and recently within the last couple months my MSI Afterburner has up and stopped recording in DayZ Standalone BUT it does work in every other game I have. So I was hoping someone would be able to help me to get it working again. Thank you for you time.

I'm running version 4.1.0.7013
I asked the Devs and they haven't done anything to make AB not compatible with the game. 1 day AB worked with DayZ Standalone and the next it didn't. My AB works with EVERY single other game I have.
And as for part of my computer was the problem it wouldn't work to record in any game. I tested Dxtory and it cut my FPS SUPER bad, but it did work in the game. I just don't know what could of happened to cause it to stop working pretty much over night. Unless there is a setting now that it has Riva TurnerStatisticsServer v6.3.0.7688

Can't touch second card in MSI afterburner.

Hi, I recently crossfired an MSI 5830 with an MSI 5850 on my Asus M4A89gtd pro/USB3 motherboard. Both of the cards are twin frozr II.
Before the crossfire I had the 5830 single.
The motherboard has 2 pci-e slots, and the bottom one is the master card slot.
So, at first, I put the 5850 in the master card slot because it was the more powerful card.
I booted the computer up and everything worked fine, crossfire elabled and it was stable. So I went to MSI afterburner to start overclocking.
I can do whatever I want to the 5850, change volts, core clock, memory clock, fan.
But when I go to the settings and switch to the 5830 to overclock it, I can't do a single thing to it without the computer freezing.
I've tried many different drivers and none of them made a difference.
I've discovered though that if I disable the "Sync settings for similar graphics processors" option, I can change the voltage and fan options, but they don't do anything.
If I adjust the core clock or the memory clock though, it freezes.
So, I switched the cards around, and put the 5830 in the master card slot, and the 5850 in the other slot.
The results are that I can overclock both cards with no freezing.
Now, I don't know if this is how I HAVE to do it, but I would prefer the 5850 to be the master card so it does most of the work. Maybe that won't work though because the 5850 is faster than the 5830 and thus it has to be the 2nd card.
*Note* Even though the 5830 is in the master card slot, MSI afterburner still recognises it as the master card or "GPU-1".
I've also stopped CCC from starting when windows boots up, and I've also disabled ULPS.
So, can anybody please tell me if there is a way to have the 5850 be in the master card slot?
Or, do I have to use the 5830 for that?
This could also be a hardware/motherboard thing and not MSI afterburner.
One more thing, after a computer reboot, the first time you open the settings in afterburner, it crashes and said it stopped working.
So I have to click on the desktop icon to open it again, but after that I can open the setting however much I want without a problem, it's just after you reboot it does that once.
I don't know if this helps or not but I think it's worth mentioning.
I'm using afterburner v2.1.0 beta 5 and the newest, 10.12 drivers.
Can anybody please help me?
Thanks,
Randy

MSI Afterburner can't stop recording

Hi, first sorry for my English, I speak French.
I try to video capture with MSI Afterburner 4.1.0, I set the hotkey @ CTRL+F11.
When I hit the hot-key, it's start recording, I have an camera icon in MSI Afterburner Hardware Monitor, but if I hit CTRL+F11 again, it doesn't stop the recording. Even if i press long time CTRL+F11 nothing happen, I changed hot-key with other one, it's start but never stop, in Windows 7 Desktop, does the video capture work only in game ?
Any one have an idea
I set picture capture @ CTRL+F12, then changed Screen capture to ALT+F12, when I hit the hot-key in Windows desktop, it's writed screenshot captured in MSI Afterburner Hardware Monitor, but nothing in the screenshot folder... I tested Screenshot capture in game and it works, i find JPG files in folder.

MSI Afterburner (K Button Starting Process But Not Opening Program)

I just updated MSI Afterburner to version 2.3.1. and Kombustor to version 2.5.2. The issue I am having is with the K button in Afterburner. Before I updated to 2.3.1 it opened up Kombustor when clicked. Now when I click the button the system works for a second but Kombustor doesn't open, however a process named kombustor opens in the task manager. Each time I click the K another version of kombustor opens in task manager, but no windows open. I can open up Kombustor 2.5.2 by itself, and when I do open it the process in task manager is the same .exe as the one that opens through Afterburner, but this time a window opens?
Any idea on how to get Afterburner's K button to properly open Kombustor?

That version is totally outdated. Uninstall it and Kombustor. Now reinstall 3.0.0 Beta 15

Msi R9 270X Hawk 2Gb Black Screen

It is unfortunate that this is a problem that repeat this often.
I bought the card in February 2014 and been running perfectly until a few days ago came the famous "black screens" to load the drivers, I've tried everything:
- Completely clean installation S.O. W7 x64 with Catalyst drivers v13-12 ---> ERROR
- Completely clean installation S.O. W8.1 x64 with Catalyst drivers v13-12 and the new bios Hybrid for W8 ---> ERROR
- Restore backups S.O. (W7 x64) where the card working properly ---> ERROR
- With the default drivers S.O. Catalyst drivers without the graphics card works perfectly but is useless for games.
I came to think that it is a hardware error and therefore RMA process.
This is the last step I can take before RMA, if no solution with a new vBios these
believe are the necessary data:
Number of card S/N: 602 - V303 - 11SB141008285
Link vBios: xXx.s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=55637502591510553426.xXx

What MSI afterburner to use for GTX 660TI PE

Hi,
I am little confused now about what version of MSI afterburner i should use, i assumed my GTX 660TI power edition need 2.2.3 to get fully voltage unlock but i also read that 2.2.4 is the better one and that gives me complete voltage control.
If that is true, where can i get 2.2.4? I looked all over the Internet but could not find it.
Thnx in advanced.

And can i use the latest like the final?
What do you think why we we told you to use 3.0.0? Of course. https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=161235.msg1300776#msg1300776
