I am adding my first gpu to my first loop when my card arrives in the mail. I have been good about monitoring my cpu's heat as this is my first loop and it's been running stable without overclocks since January.

I also have CAM software installed with my HUE+, but I'm finding it's really hit and miss as far as what games I can get it to work in even with manually trying to turn it on with shift-O.

What can I use to get in game monitoring so that I can keep an eye on temps while I game after adding a new gpu to the loop as well so that neither the cpu or the gpu get too hot in my first loop?

Thanks in advance.

When I searched msi afterburner it talked about something called rivatuner as well?

Also, my board is msi. Is it something I already have installed or something I need to go download regardless of who made my motherboard?

Thanks kookie3010.

Nevermind. Found this in case anyone else ever reads this post. :)

Settings -> On-Screen Display tab -> More
(RivaTuner Statistics Server settings window opens)

There are three otions in On-Screen Display rendering mode: Vector 2D, Vector 3D, and Raster 3D. Select Raster 3D, it will open a font selection window.
