Rivatuner Statistics Server is a part of MSI Afterburner distribution for Windows. It is a "symbiosis" of interpreter of statistical information and graphical visualizer of obtained data. Allows you to visualize more detailed information about the state of your hardware and make more fine-tuning of its technical parameters, rather than the standard MSI Afterburner interface.
Has a feature of displaying data in overlay and/or in game interface (full-screen application). Can "rename" readings of each gauge according to user specified "names". Equipped with tools for video capture, making screenshots and logging of statistical data read from hardware. Supports synchronization with LCD displays on Logitech keyboards.
Rivatuner Statistics Server functionality
- Synchronizes with the installed MSI Afterburner distribution and "picks up" numbers of hardware sensors (CPU, RAM, graphics cards, HDD, SDD, fans, PSU, etc.) from that distribution;
- Analyzes the information received and visualizes it in a specified way in the interface/overlay/full-screen application (game)/keyboard display;
- Notifies the user/reacts with the "iron" when the "critical" indicators are reached;
- Changes the name of the "gauge indicators" according to the "name" specified by the user;
- Interprets changes made to hardware attributes and corrects its "behavior" (increases/decreases cooler rotation speed, increases/secreases CPU and GPU cores clock frequency, sets "working" amperage and PSU "voltage", etc.);
- Writes statistical information into a log file, recreates the log file if its size exceeds a specified number of kilobytes;
- Captures screenshots/streaming video sequences and "overlays" it with the specified statistical data about the state of the "iron" with a reference to time.
Utility Features
- Detailed and detailed visualized information about the state of each gauge;
- Several ways to visualize the statistical data;
- Flexible, optionally customizable graphical interface;
- Ability to change the physical parameters of the "iron" directly from the interface;
- Configurable "reaction" when "critical" indicators are reached;
- Possibility of recording the collected data into a log-file and its automatic recreation when the specified "digital" size is exceeded.
Disadvantages
- Does not work separately from MSI Afterburner;
- Changing "physical" parameters can "kill" the "iron";
- Sensor data is received and visualized with a small delay (not more than a second);
- Requires "allocation" of significant RAM resources at startup.
