Please keep in mind the following things when using new Steampunked skin:

4.6.2 is optimized to improve performance of background animation rendering of new Steampunked skin, however skin animation can still be rather performance hungry on old slow CPUs. So keep your eyes on CPU usage when using this skin, and if it is too high for you, you may try to do the following things to reduce it:

- Set skin composition mode to "layered with colorkey" (the fastest one) if you were using "layered with alpha" mode. Layered skin composition mode with alpha channel is the slowest one and the most CPU hungry due to using per-pixel transparency
- Reduce skin scaling factor in UI properties of MSI AB, higher skin scaling values cause higher CPU load
- Disable animation completely, currently there is no dedicated option for it in GUI, however you can do it via editing the config and setting EnableAnimatedIndicators to 0

Love the new Steampunk skin with the skin scaling it is great.Of course MSI Afterburner is one of the must have tools for gamers.
Thanks for sharing and I hope some people actually read what Unwinder has asked but I am sure that noone will.

Any chance you could add an option for a sound playing when you take a screenshot @Unwinder ?
