MSI Afterburner 4.6.4 (Final) Download

MSI Afterburner 4.6.4 Final download - Guru3D and MSI have been working hard on AfterBurner, today we release an updated this revision of Afterburner, this application successfully secured the leading position on graphics card utilities.

MSI Afterburner is the ultimate graphics card utility, developed by the Guru3D RivaTuner team. The Beta releases sometimes have an expiration limit, the stable and final build releases do not. We always recommend using a final build. We have written a GeForce GTX series overclocking guide right here as over time a number of things changed like Curve based tweaking as well as automated tweaking. Not just that, we have also updated RTSS, our statistics server that enables the overlay with MSI AfterBurner to offer DirectX 12 overlay support. Please read the full release notes for all changes (as there are quite a few of them). Have fun tweaking. Does your overlay not work anymore after an update? Please perform a full uninstall of RTSS and AfterBurner (with profiles removal) and then perform a CLEAN install of it.

A note to other media outlets and unaffiliated third parties: Those attempting to deep-link and/or distribute our software by uploading it to their own servers should refrain doing so. Only Guru3D.com and MSI are legally permitted to distribute MSI Afterburner; the same is true for Rivatuner statistics server, Rivatuner CORE application, and RTSS-related files. 

Our advisory is simple: if it's not published here on Guru3D.com in the news or download section, then it's not an official public version leaving you at risk, potentially even downloading a vulnerable version at an external website. For that reason alone be very wary if you download MSI Afterburner from an external party. Our distribution is safe, and is the only way for you to know if downloads have not been tampered with, are unstable, or even vulnerable. 

MSI Afterburner 4.6.4

• Added new MSI Windows 11 themed skins (Light and Dark editions) by Drerex design
• Added voltage control for reference design AMD RADEON RX 6700 XT series graphics cards
• Added experimental support for Intel 11^th generation CPUs
• Added experimental support for Intel 12^th generation CPUs
• Added experimental support for mobile AMD Ryzen CPUs
• Fixed issue with missing memory temperature sensor on AMD RADEON 5700 / 5700 XT series graphics cards
• Fixed issue which could prevent MSI Afterburner from opening from tray via main application icon after accessing properties via clicking monitoring tray icon
• Increased memory overclocking limit for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30x0 series graphics cards
• Added workaround for internal DirectInput issue, which could cause hotkey handler to stop processing hotkeys correctly after locking/unlocking PC from keyboard with <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Del> or <Win>+<L>. To bypass it MSI Afterburner is resetting hotkey handler state after lock screen transition now
• Optimized monitoring profiles switching implementation for situations when profiles contain different sets of data sources displayed in monitoring tray icons
• Application tray icon is DPI aware now:
• OS level tray icons scaling is disabled now to prevent tray icon text distortion. Power users may revert back to the previous DPI unaware tray icon rendering mode via configuration file if necessary
• Added new bigger tray icon fonts for >=150% and >=200% DPI scaling ratios. Power users may also select tray icon font independently of selected DPI scaling ratio via configuration file if necessary
• Application installer is DPI aware now
• RivaTuner Statistics Server has been upgraded to v7.3.3

MSI Afterburner 4.6.3

• Added NVIDIA Ampere GPU architecture support:
• Added new fan control 3.0 API support
• Added new integrated OC Scanner API support, please read below to get more information about new OC Scanner implementation
• Updated bundled MSI Overclocking Scanner application:
• Starting from 455.xx drivers family, NVIDIA OS Scanner is no longer implemented as a separate software component redistributed with each AIC partner's overclocking software. Now NVIDIA OC Scanner is integrated into the driver and third-party software can natively access it via NVAPI. Such implementation simplifies the process of OC Scanner maintenance for NVIDIA, it is no longer necessary to ship updated software components to AIC partners and re-release each partners' software when something needs to be changed inside OC Scanner from NVIDIA side. MSI Overclocking Scanner supports both implementations of NVIDIA OC Scanner API:
• Old legacy implementation of NVIDIA OC Scanner via separate software components for NVIDIA Pascal and Turing architectures for pre-455.xx drivers family
• New integrated NVAPI based implementation of NVIDIA OC Scanner for 455.xx and newer NVIDIA display
• drivers
• New NVAPI based OC scanner implementation features the following changes and improvements:
• Automated overlocking support for both core and memory clocks
• OC Scanners's results are now persistent. It means that once the scanning process succeeds, NVIDIA driver internally saves optimized voltage/frequency curve and overclocked memory clock and apply them as new system defaults after reboot, even if you close or uninstall overclocking application. Now there is new "Revert" button inside MSI Overclocking Scanner, which allows you to revert overclocked curve and memory clocks to their real defaults
• Manually adjusted clock/frequency curve stability testing functionality is deprecated and no longer available
• Added voltage control for reference design NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30x0 series graphic cards
• Added new MSI Ampere and Indigo skins by Drerex design
• Added experimental support for Intel 10th generation CPUs
• Added native NVAPI based implementation of absolute GPU power monitoring for NVIDIA GPUs
• Altered synchronization mutex name for AMD SNM registers access in AMD Ryzen temperature monitoring implementation
• Fixed abnormally high PCIE bus usage value monitored on NVIDIA GPUs after display driver crash and recovery or on Optimus
• platforms when discrete GPU is sleeping
• Added workaround for AMD driver bug causing short display flicker during applying new fan settings on some multi-monitor or single monitor high refresh rate display configurations
• Now MSI Afterburner is forcibly disabling Zero RPM when applying new fixed fan speed in order to bypass AMD driver bug
• preventing fan control from working when Zero RPM mode is enabled on some systems. If Zero RPM is working properly on your system and you still want to keep it enabled when adjusting fan speed, you may disable forcible Zero RPM override with power oriented switch in application configuration file ow MSI Afterburner is displaying the minimum allowed fan speed in software fan curve editor window on Overdrive 8 capable AMD GPUs. The latest AMD drivers will not allow you to set fan speed below this limit, that’s by design of driver AMD ADL components are loaded by absolute path now to prevent possible DLL hijacking.
• Tightened IO driver access policy, the driver can no longer be accessed by users with no administrative rights RivaTuner Statistics Server has been upgraded to v7.3.0. This version introduces plugins architecture and brand new visual overlay editor plugin, we strongly recommend you to try it if you’re advanced user and want to customize your OSD beyond the possibilities of MSI Afterburner’s internal OSD layout editor.
• MSI Afterburner 4.6.3 beta 5 will additionally contain one minor functionality upgrade for AMD 6800/6900 users: now it internally switches "Tuning control" to "Manual" mode automatically, so it is not necessary to do it yourself in Adrenalin control panel. And of course, it will contain updated RTSS 7.3.0 Beta 10 bundled with it.
