MSI AfterBurner 3.0.0, por fin una nueva versión estable

Tras meses y meses usando versiones beta del conocido software de monitorización, overclocking y grabación MSI AfterBurner, hoy por fin se lanza la versión 3.0.0 estable para el disfrute de todos los usuarios.

El listado de cambios en la nueva versión y por razones obvias no voy a traducirlo, aunque quedaros con que es “mejor”, “más compatible” y que podéis descargarlo directamente desde 

Descarga

• o Now GPU usage and videomemory usage can be monitored and displayed in On-Screen Display on any GPU, so you can

• use MSI Afterburner to monitor graphics subsystem on laptops without dedicated NVIDIA/AMD GPU

• Extended GPU usage monitoring for Intel integrated iGPUs. You can independently monitor usage of main GPU execution

• unit (labeled as ¡§GPU usage¡¨) and MFX unit (labeled as “VID usage” to keep NVIDIA-styled GPU domains naming)

• Now full list of currently active 3D processes is being displayed in On-Screen Display server info section in ¡§i¡¨ window instead of one

• active 3D process before

• Fixed GUI issue causing vertical slider to be rendered improperly in advanced application properties window under certain

• conditions

• On-Screen Display text length limit has been extended from 256 bytes to 4 kilobytes

• Added predefined fan speed curves list to the ¡§Fan¡¨ tab in advanced application properties. The list allows you to select default

• curve on all cards and additional pre-defined curves (such as silent or performance fan speed curve) on some custom design MSI

• graphics cards

• Added core voltage control for reference design NVIDIA GeForce GTX 7×0 series graphics cards

• Added core voltage control for reference design AMD RADEON 7990 graphics cards with VT1556 voltage regulators

• Added core voltage control for cost down reference design AMD RADEON 7770 graphics cards with uP1609 voltage regulators

• Added limited core voltage control for reference design AMD RADEON 7850 graphics cards

• Added secondary voltage control loop support for CHL8214 voltage regulators to provide compatibility with future custom design

• MSI graphics cards

• Improved skin engine, now skinned slider controls support curved paths defined by alpha channel. Skin format reference guide has

• been updated to v1.6 to document new slider types support

• Fixed single tray icon mode functionality under Windows 8

• Improved single tray icon mode handling. It is no longer necessary to restart application when toggling single tray icon mode

• Now unofficial overclocking mode and official clock limits extension command line switch (XCL) for AMD graphics cards are

• accessible via GUI in ¡§General¡¨ tab in ¡§AMD compatibility properties¡¨ section

• Added ¡§Disable ULPS¡¨ option to ¡§AMD compatibility properties¡¨ section in ¡§General¡¨ tab

• RestoreAfterSuspendedMode configuration file switch is no longer undocumented, now it is enabled by default and accessible via

• GUI in ¡§General¡¨ tab in ¡§Compatibility properties¡¨ section

• Added ¡§Reset display mode on applying unofficial overclocking¡¨ option to ¡§AMD compatibility properties¡¨ section in Generaltab.

• This option can be used as a workaround for infamous flickering issue, caused by bug in AMD driver

• Now MSI Afterburner displays path to driver registry key in ¡§i¡¨ window

• Now MSI Afterburner displays voltage regulator model and location information in ¡§i¡¨ window

• Now MSI Afterburner displays RivaTuner Statistics Server installation path and server version information in ¡§i¡¨ window

• Added French and Turkish localizations

• Recompiled kernel mode driver to bypass false positive in driver verifier

• Added workaround for missing tray icon when starting application while EXPLORER.EXE is not responding

• Application tray icon is now being restored after restarting EXPLORER.EXE

• Build number is now displayed in ¡§i¡¨ window and in application tray icon tooltip

• Localizable installer files for third party translators are now included in distributive in .\SDK\Localization\Installer folder

• Now power users can display graphs in hardware monitoring window in multiple columns via configuration file

• Framerate slider limit in ¡§Videocapture¡¨ tab has been extended from 100 FPS to 120 FPS

• Now flashing camera icon is being displayed in the top left corner of monitoring window when video is being captured

• Added ¡§Use dedicated encoder server¡¨ option to ¡§Videocapture¡¨ tab

• Added prerecording settings to ¡§Videocapture¡¨ tab. You can select one of the following prerecording modes:

• Prerecord to a temporary file. This mode suits best for prerecording long videos (e.g. 10 minutes or more of H.264 video) or for prerecording videos with low compression ratio (e.g. lossless Lagarith video)

• Prerecord to RAM. This mode suits best for prerecording short videos (e.g. a couple minutes of H.264 video) and it

• provides a bit better performance than prerecord to file. Also, unlike prerecord to file, prerecord to RAM minimizes

• writes so it can increase the lifetime of SSD if you plan to use the prerecording frequently

• Added ¡§NV12 compression¡¨ to the list of available video formats to ¡§Videocapture¡¨ tab. This format can be used to replace

• uncompressed video recording with fixed 2x compression ratio at the cost of some color information loss caused by RGB to YUV

• 4:2:0 color space conversion

• Added ¡§External plugin¡¨ to the list of available video formats to ¡§Videocapture¡¨ tab. External plugins provide hardware accelerated

• H.264 video encoding support for Intel QuickSync, NVIDIA NVENC and AMD VCE platforms

• Improved DirectInput hotkey handler minimizes the risk of losing hotkey functionality until application restart under certain

• conditions

• RivaTuner Statistics Server has been upgraded to version 6.1.1:

• The server is no longer being distributed as a part of client applications like MSI Afterburner and EVGA Precision. Now it

• comes under generic RivaTuner Statistics Server name with own installer and can be optionally installed when necessary.

• The clients will automatically hide any server dependent functionality (such as On-Screen Display, framerate monitoring,

• automatic 2D/3D profiles management, screen and video capture and so on) when the server is not installed

• Now RivaTuner Statistics Server installer is being started by MSI Afterburner installer to make installation process easier for

• beginners. The server distributive is being copied to .\Redist\RTSSSetup.exe during MSI Afterburner installation, so you may always

• install it later if necessary.
