Latest MSI Afterburner Betas & Updates

Coming soon

RTSS 6.7.0 beta 1 | Page 103 | guru3D Forums

Good news. My NAVI sample is on the way to me and I expect to get it in the nearest week or so. When I receive it, providing full NAVI support shouldn't take more than just a few hours. According to my initial test results (thanks to MSI HQ for setting up local rig with NAVI and providing remote access to it!) NAVI is using exactly the same API (OD8) as RADEON VII, so most of NAVI functionality should be already working in the latest public 4.6.2 beta 1. The only exception is currently disabled voltage control slider, which is traditionally calibrated in MSI AB at hardware database level and which is always locked for unknown GPUs (including NAVI), but it should be addressed by releasing new version with updated database. Furthermore, you can already control voltage on NAVI indirectly with V/F curve editor.
So 4.6.2 beta 2 (with new skins by Chris of course) is around the corner. Stay tuned!

When Unwinder gets his NAVI GPU and has time enough to explore it's overclocking and over voltage implementations

About a week to go

MSI Afterburner 4.6.2 beta 2 build 15658

· Added voltage control for reference design NVIDIA GeForce RTX 20x0 SUPER series graphic cards
· Added voltage control for AMD RADEON RX 5700 series graphics cards
· Added new MSI Steampunked, MSI Lightning Anniversary and MSI Mystic skins by Drerex design
· Improved hardware monitoring module:
o Added CPU temperature monitoring support for AMD Ryzen 3X00 processors family
o Added thermal offset for CPU temperature monitoring on AMD Ryzen Threadripper 29X0 processors family
o Added package CPU power and per-core CPU power monitoring for AMD Ryzen processors family
o Improved monitoring plugins architecture:
§ Added API function for reading host application’s hardware monitoring timestamp from the plugins. The timestamp is updated by host on each hardware polling iteration, so it allows the plugin to precache and reuse some sensor data if the same physical sensor value is being used in multiple data sources exported by plugin. Such approach is demonstrated in updated CPU.dll plugin for duplicating the same temperature sensor value for all cores on AMD CPUs
§ Added optional plugin unititialization callback function, which is called by the host before unloading the plugins. New multithreaded Ping.dll plugin is demonstrating new function usage to shut down ping monitoring thread properly
o Improved monitoring plugins:
§ Updated CPU.dll plugin is demonstating AMD Ryzen CPU temperature monitoring implementation and optimal duplication of the same temperature sensor readback for all CPU cores
§ Added new Ping.dll plugin for monitoring ping to desired server via ICMP echo requests. Please take a note that the plugin is configured to monitor ping to Guru3D.com by default, it is up to you to specify target server name or IP address in the plugin properties
· Improved skin engine:
o Optimized skin rendering performance for skins using multiple overlapped animated indicators
o Added position smoothing support to skinned indicators
o Now skinned applications can forcibly disable indicator animation if necessary
o Skin format reference guide has been updated to v1.8 to document these changes
· RivaTuner Statistics Server has been upgraded to v7.2.3

Looking HOT @Drerex

Yep, they are looking good. Im still using the SteamPunk
