顯卡超頻怕弄壞?MSI Afterburner 能幫你什麼

MSI Afterburner 軟體圖示 MSI Afterburner 4.6.1 資料更新 2019-04-22 閱讀約 5 分鐘

玩遊戲時畫面卡頓、幀數上不去,打開工作管理員看到顯示卡使用率一直衝高,溫度也跟著飆到八、九十度。你想調整顯示卡設定讓它跑得更順,但又怕亂調會把卡弄壞,於是開始找有沒有工具能安全地調整時脈、風扇轉速,順便監看溫度變化。

一般人遇到這種狀況,直覺是去顯示卡驅動程式裡找設定,但驅動程式內建的超頻選項通常很陽春,看不到即時數據,風扇曲線也不能細調。另一種做法是直接改 BIOS,風險高又麻煩。這類工具切入的點,是提供一個圖形化介面,讓你能拉滑桿調整核心時脈、記憶體時脈和電壓,同時即時顯示溫度、使用率,並把這些數據疊加在遊戲畫面上,邊玩邊看調整效果。

01MSI Afterburner 到底能拿來做什麼?

主要做三件事:超頻顯示卡、監控硬體狀態、錄製遊戲畫面。超頻部分可以調整核心時脈、記憶體時脈和電壓,也能自訂風扇轉速曲線。監控功能會即時顯示溫度、使用率、時脈等數據,可以顯示在遊戲畫面上或記錄成檔案。另外內建畫面擷取工具,能錄影或截圖。

02我完全沒超頻過,用這套軟體會不會很危險?

它有提供自動超頻功能,讓軟體自己掃描找出穩定的超頻設定,不需要手動慢慢試。手動調整時,只要照著一般超頻原則——每次小幅增加時脈、調整後跑測試觀察溫度和穩定性——風險是可控的。介面上也有重置按鈕,設定出問題可以一鍵恢復預設值。

03它只能用在 MSI 的顯示卡嗎?

不是。雖然是 MSI 開發的,但它支援多家廠商的顯示卡,官方說明明確指出相容於不同製造商的 GPU。所以就算你的卡是華碩、技嘉或微星的,都能用這套軟體調整。不過實際支援程度還是要看你那張卡的型號,建議安裝後先確認軟體有沒有正確辨識你的顯示卡。

04遊戲中怎麼看目前的溫度和使用率?

用它的 On-Screen Display(OSD)功能。在設定裡啟用 OSD,選擇要在遊戲畫面角落顯示哪些數據,例如溫度、使用率、時脈、幀數等。進遊戲後這些資訊會疊加在畫面上,你就能即時看到調整設定後對效能的影響,不用跳回桌面切換視窗。

05風扇轉速可以自己控制嗎?

可以。它能自訂風扇轉速曲線,依照不同溫度設定對應的轉速百分比。例如溫度低於五十度時讓風扇轉慢一點減少噪音,超過八十度時全速運轉加強散熱。你可以存多組風扇設定檔,依不同遊戲或應用程式切換。

06這套軟體適合什麼樣的人用?

適合三種人:一是玩遊戲覺得幀數不夠、想透過超頻擠出額外效能的人;二是擔心顯示卡過熱、想自訂風扇曲線控制溫度和噪音的人;三是想錄下遊戲精彩片段或截圖的人。它也有內建錄影功能,支援 H.264 編碼和 WMV、AVI 格式,不用另外裝錄影軟體。

07筆電也能用嗎?

可以用,但有限制。官方說明指出筆電配備獨立顯示卡就能使用,不過因為筆電散熱空間有限,超頻幅度可能受限。如果你只是想在筆電上監看溫度、調整風扇轉速,這套軟體還是能做到。但如果是想大幅超頻提升效能,筆電的散熱條件可能撐不住。

08它能監控 CPU 的溫度嗎?

它主要專注在 GPU 監控,CPU 的部分只有有限的監控能力。如果你需要完整的 CPU 溫度、時脈、電壓數據,官方資料沒有詳細說明這方面的功能。建議另外搭配 CPU 監控工具,或直接看主機板廠商提供的軟體,會比依賴這套軟體更完整。

09介面只有英文,看不懂怎麼辦?

這套軟體的介面確實只有英文,沒有繁體中文選項。不過主要操作介面不複雜,核心時脈、記憶體時脈、電壓、風扇轉速這些都是國際通用的英文詞彙,看久就熟了。如果真的看不懂,網路上有很多中文教學文章和影片,照著步驟操作也能上手。

10它跟 GPU-Z 有什麼不同?我該裝哪個?

GPU-Z 主要功能是顯示顯示卡的詳細規格資訊,例如製程、記憶體類型、匯流排介面等,偏向查規格、看硬體資訊。MSI Afterburner 則偏重調整和監控,能超頻、調風扇、錄畫面。如果你只是想看顯卡規格,GPU-Z 就夠了;想調整效能或監看即時數據,選 MSI Afterburner。兩者不衝突,也可以都裝。

11這套軟體多久更新一次?還有人在維護嗎?

根據收錄的版本紀錄,它從 2010 年就持續更新到現在,最近一年內仍有釋出新版本。開發商 MSI 有持續在維護,不是放著不管的軟體。不過更新頻率不算高,一年大約一兩次,這對穩定運作的工具軟體來說是正常的。

12有沒有其他功能相近的軟體可以比較?

功能相近的軟體有 GPU-Z、HWiNFO、SpeedFan 和 Intel Extreme Tuning Utility。GPU-Z 偏規格查詢,HWiNFO 偏硬體資訊監控,SpeedFan 主要控制風扇轉速,Intel Extreme Tuning Utility 則針對 Intel CPU 超頻。以顯示卡超頻和遊戲內監控來說,MSI Afterburner 是功能最完整的,但如果你只需要其中某一項功能,其他軟體可能更輕量。

這一版改了什麼

What's new in this version:

- Added new MSI Touch of Modern skin by Drerex design

Added asynchronous dual fan control support for reference design NVIDIA GeForce RTX 20x0 series graphics cards. Please take a note that only 100% NVIDIA reference design dual fan control implementations are supported, third party proprietary asynchronous fan control solutions (e.g. EVGA iCX series asynchronous fans) are not supported and will not be supported in future versions. The following asynchronous fan control functionality is available:
- Added new “Synchronize fan speeds” button, which is allowing you to switch between synchronous and asynchronours fan control modes. Please take a note that new fan speed controls are available in v4 skins only, v3 and v2 skins are deprecated and no longer receive new functionality
- When fan speeds synchronization is enabled, MSI Afterburner’s fan control functionality behaves exactly like in the previous version, i.e. both fans are running asynchronically in default hardware automatic fan speed control mode but become linked synchronically if you enable manual or software automatic fan speed control mode
- When fan speeds synchronization is disabled, you may select and adjust each fan speed independently. For software automatic fan speed control mode independent temperature curves are also adjustable for each fan

Improved hardware monitoring module:
- Inverted hotkeys handling approach for multiple selected hardware monitoring graphs. Previously single graph settings mode was active by default, but you could apply some settings (e.g. “Show in On-Screen Display”) to multiple selected graphs with <Ctrl> hotkey modifier. Now such settings are applied to multiple selected graphs by default and <Ctrl> hotkey modifier is used to apply settings to single focused graph
- Group operation notifier has been moved to hardware monitoring graph properties header
- Improved backward compatibility with monitoring profiles created in the previous versions of application. It is no longer necessary to recreate the profiles having monitoring settings without On-Screen Display layout
- It is no longer necessary to click <Apply> button inside the On-Screen Display layout editor after changing current layout, now the changes are applied properly on closing the editor
- The progress of saving multiple graphs’ settings is now displayed in the caption of the application’s property sheet
- Optimized handling of “dirty” flag for settings decreases saving time for multiple graph’s settings when using multiple subsequent group operations
- Added new “Hide attached monitoring panel” command to the context menu of hardware monitoring window. You may use it to toggle visibility of monitoring window when it is attached to the main application window
- Now you may press <Ctrl> + <M> hotkeys to toggle monitoring window attachment

Improved voltage/frequency curve editor for both AMD and NVIDIA GPUs:

Now you may hold <Shift>and press left mouse button on initial desired horizontal position in the editor window to begin fragment selection, then drag mouse cursor to desired final horizontal position and release left mouse button to select a fragment. The following functionality is available for selected fragments:
- You may double click the editor window to reset fragment selection
- You may adjust the offset for any point inside the selection with mouse cursor to apply the same offset simultaneously to all selected points
- You may adjust the offset for any point inside the selection with keyboard cursor keys, <Enter> or <Shift>+<Enter> keys to apply the same offset or specify the same target frequency or voltage for all selected points

Improved skin engine:
- Skin engine no longer crashes when switching between the skins having the same site with and without alpha channel
- Added thumbless skinned slider controls support
- Added alpha path threshold support for skinned slider controls

Improved skin cross-compatibility layer:
- Extended list of applications supported by skin cross-compatibility layer
- Various compatibility fixes for third party skins supported by cross-compatibility layer
- Fixed issue with GUI stopping responding during adjusting skin scaling ratio on the fly in high DPI mode when skin composition mode was set to layered mode with alpha

Updated third party hardware database:
- Added new third party voltage control capable graphics cards to the database
- Added new third party graphics cards with multichannel GPU, memory and VRM temperature sensors to the database
- RivaTuner Statistics Server has been upgraded to v7.2.2
