So sad to hear that a few trolling_whiners/mor*ns have succeeded over many of us who deeply appreciate your hard work and constant and selfless improvement eager. I think no one really "wins" here (even the usual stup*ds), we all lose, as your awesome piece of software which will improve at slower pace. But, having said that, it has to be REALLY upseting being you and have to stand out with all the bullsh*t is permanently said about your product, multiplied every time you release a new beta/feature. Regards and as always, thanks indeed for your dedication and awesome feature rich app.

Well, those who flamed about stupid expiring betas can be happy: you achieved what you wanted, well done. MSI want to release final 3.0.0 right now which means that I can safely freeze/cancel any new features development, because we treat current build as 100% feature rich. We’ll add only R9 295X2 support to 3.0.0 beta 19 then release it as final 3.0.0 build in closest weeks. Also we’ll try to leave without any public betas (and so without any major feature improvements) for some period of time, so similar to any other vendor overclocking software new AB versions won’t give you anything besides new GPUs support.

Yeah that sucks^ bitchin bitches they are the worst

Seems to be slightly incompatible with the new Nvidia 337.50 betas. Clockspeed on the two 660ti is being read out wrongly.

Sorry to hear that Alex, stupid whiners have won this time. :bang: MSI AB Beta releases are probably the only piece of software (besides Wagnard DDU) I love to change when new Beta arrives, OK and sometimes (not always) newer Beta versions of GeForce and Radeon drivers on my gaming rigs. But after all these whining kids here on Guru3D and other forums who were crying for final MSI AB all of us who were mostly using AB Beta's because of new features we are all stucked with just only new GPU support, few bugs corrections here and there in new AB versions and that's all, like users of EVGA, Asus and other RivaTuner based GPU OC programs. In near future you should definitely consider about some closed Beta testing for new MSI AB releases so that you can keep up with your good work with peace. Here on Guru3D anyone can post anything about MSI AB, some of them were just registered on Guru3D and they think they have a legal rights to whine at you about Beta expiring date few minutes after joining Guru3D forum. At least you can relax for some time, you can't win all battles, also I know situation there where you are settled is far from relaxed, my uncle lives not far away from you. Spend some time with your family, they know how to appreciate your time, and most of us reasonable ones here od Guru3D. Take care of you and your closest...

yay hooray banzai [/Irony] Why the heck does beta development have to stop for a while after a Stable releases ? did you sign such a delicate contract with MSI or are they always just that complicated ? Bring stable 3.0.0 and then continue with Beta 3.1.0 so simple is that! Or do they fear that it would devalue the stable version if there would be a beta ? 😛uke2:

That's my personal decision.

Blame the driver, it is broken in other tools as well. http://obsproject.com/forum/threads/obs-nvenc-337-50-driver.13244/

Then it has nothing to do with MSI. Perhaps you simply want to stop or slow down the development and you are using the whiners as an excuse to do that?

Excuse for butting in, but starting your reply with that is pretty much guaranteed to get you a mean response. Just saying.

Look, I know they are idiots but: 1) users who appreciate your work shouldn't suffer because of some idiots or trolls who just whine about anything; 2) there will always be people who will whine, you can never please everyone. You could simply ignore all the whiners and do your thing.

If you live you life by hiding your true decisions behind excuses, it doesn't mean that others do the same. It is direct MSI requirement to release 3.0.0 final ASAP. So let it be so. I safely ignored users whining about betas while I could define new versions release schedule and beta testing schedule myself.

My recoding is all busted with this driver,the worst thing that i dread is not being able to record my shows or me getting my butt kicked by some 15 year old in some game. Back to older drivers for now i guess and i will try re install of ab

Adding Total CPU Usage Percentage to OSD would be nice so we can easily detect which games are quad core optimized

Sometimes on start-up RTSSHooksLoader64.exe is loaded twice. I'll have to quit Afterburner and end the second process manually. When I reload Afterburner again there is just one copy of RTSSHooksLoader64.exe running.

try editing MSIAfterburner.cfg file , adding a delay value of 10-20sec StartupDelay = 20000 (values are in ms) works for me .

My impression is that you are not willing to try and make it work. You said it yourself that it was your personal decision.

Call it as you wish, but public beta testing process will never co-exist with whiners ruling release schedule. No betas then no betas.

If MSI is pressuring you to stop AB progress then they should rethink it IMO from a business view point . When I was looking for a vid card I picked out the 660ti PE/OC because it supported voltage tweaks and AB , along with long feature list . If that was not the case I would of just judged on how good cooler on it was and there many manufactures that do good cooling . Anyway, MSI AB is one of best PC app IMO, both from stability and feature standpoint for vid card , nice work whatever happens .

I am sorry to hear you have lost control. There is always 3.001 but it will be hard to test stability without a beta with testers. I just need it to OC and the last full version does not support my card. A final is welcomed here but we do understand your stance. I hope this does not mean the end of development but of course that is up to you. Sounds like you are a bit irritated about this right now and I am sorry you feel that way. Regards

MSI are trying to make happy those who constantly flood here and in official MSI support with crap like "where is my final, I don't want betas" and that's understandable from business viewpoint. As for new features progress, it is not controlled by business relationships, I repeated many times that most of feature improvements which I add and test in betas are implemented on my own because I like coding them. Combining coding for fun with "we need release now" schedule is a no go.

While it's *good* that we're getting a final version anyways (not that it really matters as Betas are stable as is), it's unfortunate that some people can be so ungrateful concerning the state of the betas and ruin it for everyone else. At least on these forums the kids can stay out, but on MSI support you can't tell a customer to **** off, because *the customer is always right* 🙄 Last whinefest on Beta 18's expiry was a huge...huge...disgraceful act that I wouldn't forgive if I were Unwinder (he probably doesn't either). I know for a fact that since I started developing my application that I host here on Guru3D, what keeps me going is my love for coding and adding new useful features and making the application even bigger and stronger. Give me a schedule, a few whiners, and you would be blowing everything up.

With this new beta 19 I cannot clock my 750 Ti past +135. I used to be able to go a lot higher. Was this intentionally locked down?

What driver are you on, I kind of remember reading a newer driver opened the OC limit , I think .

That was my first suspicion as well. I'm using the latest beta driver and I'm wondering why they would impose the new limit? Glad to know it's not Afterburner!

I am not 100% sure but you can either wait for WHQL driver later this month or try last one . 337 beta might be off a branch before they added, changed the OC limit on the 750's .
