Alligin Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 What utility do you lot use to monitor the performance or bottlenecks of your pc while flying? Can any record while flying so you can review later? Thanks Alligin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fri13 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Open Hardware Monitor. https://openhardwaremonitor.org/ It gives you the change to log with wanted intervals. Some may find a visual graphics nicer and more useful, but I find the values nicer. i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.

FragBum Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I use either Task Manager or MSI Afterburner, Afterburner gives a lot more detailed stats but both compete for systems resources whilst running. So generally run only when tweaking DCS, both display about a minute of graph data so if you get a freeze or other issue you can quickly go back to the app display to see what happened. There is also an OSD of various system/DCS stats with in DCS which you can get to by pressing "Left Windows" key and "Scroll Key" the first press gives you basic frame rates, the second more detailed info but it's more for the developers although still interesting. Oh and pressing those keys a third time gets rid of the OSD data. Control is an illusion which usually shatters at the least expected moment. Gazelle Mini-gun version is endorphins with rotors. See above. Currently rolling with a Asus Z390 Prime, 9600K, 32GB RAM, SSD, 2080Ti and Windows 10Pro, Rift CV1. bu0836x and Scratch Built Pedals, Collective and Cyclic.

Sn8ke_iis Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I use the OSD within MSI Afterburner, you can customize it for all the pertinent specs. You can set it to a hot key which will turn the overlay off and on. You can customize it's position and color through RivaTuner the utility that runs with MSI Afterburner. Obviously most important is temps of GPU and CPU but it will also track utilization, RAM and VRAM usage, etc. Really more than you would want in an OSD, there' a stat for it. Frame rate hit of the OSD is minimal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitMaster Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 It should be mentioned that some of those tools need to run "alone", aka they do not like other monitoring tools to access/query the same Nuovoton chip or whatever gives the data. HWinfo64 displays a warning for this, others may not do that. Corsair iCUE and LINK is one of those tools I would turn OFF while other monitoring apps are running but there are others too.
