MSI Afterburner is software that lets you manually control your graphics card(GPU), which leads to an increase in performance. This software is made for Windows users, it will provide features like monitoring the GPU, and hardware customization. You can adjust the settings and that can be saved as an individual profile so that users can quickly switch to different settings.

It is based on programs like ClockGen, and RivaTuner, which allow you to change the fan speed, temperature, and voltage and supports a wide range of MSI graphics cards, including AMD, and NVIDIA.

Increase your GPU Performance

This day everyone demands a high-powered GPU, this is because heavy tasks such as video editing, and playing video games require a good specified GPU which will never let your system slow down. For this, you have to spend money for another GPU, because the integrated GPU is not made for heavy tasks but there is another option by which you can overwrite your GPU settings to get better performance than before and it allows you to increase the GPU performance manually.

Simple Design, Easy to understand

It is designed in this manner so that there are two display sliders, one is to measure the GPU voltage, and the second for the measure the memory status. The left slider gives the computer temperature, current voltage, central clock information, fan speed, overheating, and other data. It allows you to adjust the core, shader, and memory clock levels as well as fan speed control. The sliders show you the GPU and memory usage.

MSI Afterburner for overclocking

This tool gives you the overclocking features. You can find the one-click overclocking tool on the slides after installing this application. The one-click overclocking tool automatically sets the process for finding the highest stable overclock settings for your card, which provides you the maximum boost on your computer. This application provides you with multiple custom profiles by which you can set settings for your different work, such as graphics and video editing, gaming, web browsing, and more.

Overvoltage

It offers you a wide range of customization options. The triple overvoltage feature allows you to control PPL voltages, memory, and core, and while the custom fan profiles allow you to control the cooling performance of your graphics card. Triple overvoltage has the ability to adjust three different voltage settings on your graphics card. These voltage settings include core voltage, memory voltage, and auxiliary voltage.

It should also be noted that adjusting voltage settings can increase the performance of your graphics card, but also have risks such as overheating and hardware damage if you do not set it properly. So do some research, before using it.

These all options allow you to use your GPU’s maximum strength to get a smoother performance than before. But it is also be noting that you should first research before applying any setting because it may cause overheating or damage to your hardware.

FAQs

Is it safe to overclock the GPU?

It is safe for your GPU, only you need the basic knowledge of the overclocking and then you can do it more safely.

Does it work with integrated graphics?

No, integrated graphics won’t work. Any Nvidia and AMD, GPU’s can be optimized from this application.

Is MSI Afterburner better than Asus GPU Tweak?

it will work with any Nvidia and AMD GPU regardless of the brand and Asus GPU Tweak lets you monitor and overclock your GPU as well, but it only works with Asus GPUs.
