Great step by step guide. TOP TIP: pressing the "X" actually closes the program without minimising it to the system tray. So if you close it, nothing will show up, which is probably why some people say it's not working.
If anyone is having trouble getting the OSD to actually come up, try and bind a key to "Toggle On-Screen Display" in the afterburner Settings under the On-Screen Display tab.
For those who could not get it working, Open Afterburner go into settings go to on screen display and put some key into the toggle on screen display tab. When in game use that key, Should work.
Thank you for a very straight forward explanation and a intuitive guide to installation and function. A lot of these videos are full of host tyring to impress everyone how smart they are by using lanquage that most of us do not understand and talking fast and acting as if they are talking to the most advance technical audience rather than just regular viewers they want a vey concise and short explanation of how to use whatever device which is at issue. Thanks
-Make sure you have Msi afterburner still running while playing your game - also some games might not support afterburner automatically or they might mistaken it as some kind of hacking or cheating software, if that’s the case then into your Steam library and right click on your game. Select properties at the bottom, stay on the general tab and in the strip under where it say “launch options” type in the text “-allow_third_party_software” then exit out and start the game again. There’s one other thing you can try if that doesn’t work but it’s a bit more complicated for me to type in
0:31 The default windows file explorer already has a built in zip extractor, albeit a limited one. 7 zip is great tho. For those with fps not shown issues, go to setting, Benchmark, then assign a key to begin recording. Now open a game, toggle On-screen monitor and begin recording on with the shortcut keys. And finally enjoy. Thanks to Shandell James
Great and clear tutorial! very helpful thanks!!! is there anyway to see it without being inside a game? like for using editing software or just in normal windos desktop?
Hey I managed to install everything and get the app running fine, but it wont show me the options to see my GPU temps/usage. It only shows the option for the integrated graphics. When I first set it up they appeared fine, but after launching a game they disappeared from the MSI Afterburner settings. Any tip/idea on how I could fix this?
At the top, click on the On Screen Display tab. Click in the Toggle On Screen Display box and press the Scroll Lock key, and click Apply so you can turn the OSD on and off. Note that global hotkeys like this one only function when the Settings menu is closed. You would need to click OK to close this window, have a game running, then press Scroll Lock to turn on the OSD.
I uninstalled it because the frame-rate wouldn't show up, and I missed the On Screen Display option under the monitor tab. Thanks, you helped me figure out where I was going wrong.
Nice mate, thank's. I followed all the steps and everything is fine, it really works perfectly but I have only one problem, the CPU temperature function does not appear in the program and not even those for the CPU core, I only have CPU usage, any recommendations ?
As i notice, some people can show the graph of something on it. I havent figured it out how. Also, it doesnt show GPU power drawn sadly. Or, does it now? Lucky me, on AMD software, it can show the power drawn.
Guys, make sure "Show On-Screen Display" on the top left of RTSS is ON (see 5:39). He didn't mention it, but it was off for me and nothing was working hahaha
For some reason it says my Gpu is at 0% but occasionally ramps up to 20-35% for a split second. I’m still getting great performance but I still want to see the usage percentage. Can someone help?
For those that still can't get the stats to display, my mistake was I didn't have msi afterburner and rtss running in the background. Minimize to system tray. Changing the display color isn't working for me, though.
"To extract the files, you need to have 7-Zip." Am I mistaken, or isn't a simple .zip and extract function embedded in all modern windows platforms for the last 30 years? Do you really need 7-zip specifically?
My dedicated GPU is GPU2, what do I do to either change it to 1 or to make Afterburner show me the same options as GPU1? Whenever I'm running a game, as GPU usage is only available for GPU1, it'll show less than 50% usage and its temps don't usually go over 60°, so I think it's actually showing me iGPU performance instead of dGPU
i followed this tutorial but why is not working for me? ( i have both program minimized, not closed ) EDIT: now is working i had to do off > on on "on screen display support"
my afterburner keeps saying "the application has failed to start because its side my side configuration is incorrect", everytime. and i dont know what to do.

Is there a way of toggling it off and on?
@@toorz7839 I haven't tried it myself but in the options I think there are hot keys you can assign to toggle it on and off.
Easy and straight to the point.
Exactly what I was looking for after doing my first build in 11 years! Thank you, great job keeping it focused and simple.
Dude, I thought it was a bug in my system. But you helped me with something so simple. Thank you very much
No problem
@@ShandellJames i did all the steps but it wont work can u help me plz
If anyone is having trouble getting the OSD to actually come up, try and bind a key to "Toggle On-Screen Display" in the afterburner Settings under the On-Screen Display tab.

What should we do
...nice....how do you turn off/on the monitoring OSD while gaming?
At the top, click on the On Screen Display tab. Click in the Toggle On Screen Display box and press the Scroll Lock key, and click Apply so you can turn the OSD on and off. Note that global hotkeys like this one only function when the Settings menu is closed. You would need to click OK to close this window, have a game running, then press Scroll Lock to turn on the OSD.
@@amarabandurupasinghe2389 ..thanks...
Thank you so much!
not working for me i did exactly what u did but it doesnt show OSD in game nor outside it
Really good tutorial. Thank you!
Thanks alot bro this work
Mine does not show up on screen in game play.
I uninstalled it because the frame-rate wouldn't show up, and I missed the On Screen Display option under the monitor tab. Thanks, you helped me figure out where I was going wrong.
same here but how to show or how to solve the issue
You made it too easy. Thank you!
Nice mate, thank's. I followed all the steps and everything is fine, it really works perfectly but I have only one problem, the CPU temperature function does not appear in the program and not even those for the CPU core, I only have CPU usage, any recommendations ?
cheers bro , very nice & informative .
Very helpful thank you so much
Thanks man!
Thank you bro it really helped
How do you change the names. For the fps, cpu and gpu?
Example, cpu 4090 ect..
ODLICAN VIDEO. HVALA COVEK.
every windows pc is able to extract files. 7zip is not needed.
Was wondering about this step. I’ve always used the windows built in extract function.
And you dont even need to extract it as it doesnt have any dependencies, you just double click the zipped folder and open the exe.
7zip is good not only for extracting lol
@@milordas yeah, but for this tutorial it is only used for extracting, it's not necessary.
Was missed used RAM % in my Aterburner, as well how to order different groups on the screen, ie i want fps shown first
Ths much, to the point. 👍👍
Bro... this is awesome. Thanks so much!
As i notice, some people can show the graph of something on it. I havent figured it out how.
Also, it doesnt show GPU power drawn sadly. Or, does it now?
Lucky me, on AMD software, it can show the power drawn.
amazing and very useful and helpful :D
Thank you so much
thanks mate helped heaps
thnks bro
Guys, make sure "Show On-Screen Display" on the top left of RTSS is ON (see 5:39). He didn't mention it, but it was off for me and nothing was working hahaha
thanks much. very helpful
i check them but it doesn't say "in OSD" next to it, i installed Riva as well. Help??
For some reason it says my Gpu is at 0% but occasionally ramps up to 20-35% for a split second. I’m still getting great performance but I still want to see the usage percentage. Can someone help?
That's actually helpful ❤️
great video, thanks for the help!!
Good video. Thanks !! Liked and Subbed
make sure to install the riva tuner!
should have been the first thing to do after installing msi after burner in the video tut.
For those that still can't get the stats to display, my mistake was I didn't have msi afterburner and rtss running in the background. Minimize to system tray. Changing the display color isn't working for me, though.
🙏 thank you
Thank you
you do not need 7zip
Thanks big help
still working near 2025. tyvm
thank you, bro,
Is the latest 4.65 Final version hacked right on MSI's website? File Icon is very strange and when you start the installer, it looks very strange.
Thanks bro.
Thanks
Is there a way to toggle it on or off via a keyboard shortcut?
Can I make these Metrics be visible even WHEN NOT IN A GAME? on Win Desktop or in Browser?
thank you
Followed all steps but mine just doesn't show when I load the game up? any tips
same man
Big thumbs up!!!!
It worked, thx

Does MSI Afterburner do temp checking all by itself or do I need any additional software like HWinfo to pair with?
Hey idky but the afterburner its lettimg me acces the fan and the thingy showing temp and stuff all shOwing 0
My dedicated GPU is GPU2, what do I do to either change it to 1 or to make Afterburner show me the same options as GPU1? Whenever I'm running a game, as GPU usage is only available for GPU1, it'll show less than 50% usage and its temps don't usually go over 60°, so I think it's actually showing me iGPU performance instead of dGPU
Great video.
I have 0 gpu usage in games how i can fix it? In msi afterburner
mine is only showing cpu1 temp not cpu. help
I dont have cpu temp lol
i have a question why can't i control my fan settings in my laptop using this msi afterburner? (i have an msi laptop with rtx 3050 6 gb)
How to get Rivaturner itself to look bigger on the computer? I can barely see any of the applications on the app.
i followed this tutorial but why is not working for me? ( i have both program minimized, not closed )
EDIT: now is working i had to do off > on on "on screen display support"
my afterburner keeps saying "the application has failed to start because its side my side configuration is incorrect", everytime. and i dont know what to do.
thanks for help bro
and also i checked the compatibilty list and read the settings for god of war 3 but some of the things were not there
why does the afterburner saying i have to tick checkmark to activate the graph
mine syas tick check the graph to check the graph. and won't activate. it's their but no available as an option.
