Personally, if I wanted to benchmark GPU performance I would use an independent tool like Cinebench or 3D Mark. But even these aren't entirely reflective of how a GPU performs in specific games. There are other external factors that have an effect like game engine, API, optimization and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First off, you are berating people; 5 hours ago, Patrik said: LMAO, i bet you are lacking experience, i'm once telling you again that it works no matter what the GPU is, even with older brands like Inno3D etc... i'm not gonna reply to your "lack of knowledge" once again because it makes no sense. And second, for what feels like the millionth time, all GPU brand software can be used a benchmarking tool, that's the core of what this software is supposed to do. Using benchmark software that fits the brand of the specific brand of card you're using offers more options and better compatibility, that what both me and @Crazycrab have been trying, completely in vain it seems, to explain. There's nothing at all wrong with Afterburner, it's just worth considering using the software that is indigenous to your hardware, that's all we're trying to say.

However it's hard as some games do not like OC GPU. 22 hours ago, Patrik said: this is optional, because if you are planning to stream, you'd surely have some modern GPU that supports either Nvidia Shadowplay or AMD Relive, which both have streaming/recording options ready Well, OBS is always open when my gaming rig is on. Other then being off I'm on another PC 🙂 22 hours ago, Patrik said: for free games YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH BABY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - CCleaner is the superior product and I've been using it for close to ten years now and it's still one of my must haves software for a desktop.

skyfire Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 I wonder how many people have the screen recorders in their must haves. I have camtasia 2020 for now. I may invest in new version in 2022. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
