They were pumping out solid copper capacitors, heavy layered pcb's and just badass hardware in general before most of board partner's figured out up from down. Gigabyte seems to have had 1 stressed out software dev for the past 15 years meanwhile they have legions of Electrical Engineers and Hardware nerds. Gigabyte Aorus Engine/ExtremeEngine (1000)Ĭlick to expand.General rule of thumb, You use MSI's software and Gigabytes hardware lol. If I was to rate gpu overclocking software, it would go like this (1 being the absolute best, and 10 being the worstttttttttttttt) So yea, MSI AfterBurner is the one to go after. However, the OSD that came with asus GPU Tweak is extremely buggy, causing game lag and fps drop. ASUS also has its own gpu overclocking utility called GPU Tweak II, which I have used and can tell it is equally fast as the MSI Ab. You probably can't find a better OSD than msi ab's riva tuner. And as Dunlop mentioned above, msi ab just has superior UI and many other features, including Riva tuner which is a superior OSD. Having used both, I can tell you it is a WORLD of difference. On the other hand, MSI Afterburner is so fast. The same is true for Aorus Engine (which comes with the 20x series). The whole thing is just slow and very laggy. Did you notice the buffering circle that goes on for like 10 seconds every time you change your input clock speed? This gets very frustrating when doing incremental change. I actually just installed my new GPU a day or two ago and haven't had the time to "tweak" it to my liking, but I'm about to get that taken care of today.Gigabyte Xtreme Engine is extremely laggy. I've just recently switched from the MSI R7 250 2GB DDR3 to the ASUS R9 270X DC2T 2GB DDR5 and I've been running the Afterburner software for quite some time on my old MSI card, which proved to be quite an invaluable tool to have. That said, I can't exactly follow up with my personal recommendation because I haven't gotten a chance to use the GPUTweak software yet on my pc. It sure is nice to be able to have the best of both worlds though! Yes, using software that's visually appealing to the eye is definitely a PLUS, but it's not an absolute mandatory requirement in my opinion. Features, flexibility, customization, user-friendliness, and robustness(in no particular order), are probably my main determining factors when choosing nearly ANY software to use on my own personal computers, whether it's a gpu tweaking utility, anti-virus suite, text editor(I prefer Notepad++.), etc. I, for instance, most definitely wouldn't prefer X software to Y software, basing my preference primarily on "prettiness" and appearance alone. I agree, one shouldn't necessarily recommend which software is "better" simply because they feel that it's the prettier/est of the gpu tweaking software alternatives out there, but that could be the primary determining factor to that particular person. Personally I have no idea and want to find out which is better if you own a ASUS VGA card. Not oh, the ASUS one has prettier colours so I vote for that. Please mention some pros and cons of each before you say why you think one is better then the other. At time of writing - GPUTweak V2.7.1.8 vs Afterburner 4.10
