I would only use one piece of software for setting up the card, as this is likely to result in the least issues.Īlthough if you are just setting up a fan curve, in evga, then it might be fine, jsut try it. I would say, have them both installed, overclock with evga precision, and use afterburner for monitoring. Would be rather interested to know if this works, as I just ordered an EVGA card. In the end, I uninstalled the gigabyte one, as I was afraid of breaking something, and afterburner had more functionality. I ran them together for a bit, they didn't sync up. I was in somewhat the same position a while ago with gigabyte extreme engine vs afterburner. No other GPU related software is running. In case it's important, I'm running Windows 10 64-bit and I'm also running Nvidia Inspector's Multi Display Power Saving software in the background, which also may or may not be relevant. My solution to this is to use MSI Afterburner alongside EVGA Precision X, but is it safe? Would resetting everything to default on Precision X, then re-dialing in the OC values in Afterburner work? I've also learnt that the G(PU) P(ower) M(emory) lights will also not work with MSI afterburner, but I couldn't care less about these. What annoys me is how the Precision X operates, the UI (personally) is horrible compared to MSI Afterburner, things are buried so deep inside the settings menu and if you have HW Monitoring opened, playing games would lead to severe keyboard lag and delay when actuating keys, so I want back in on MSI's Afterburner software.īut I have heard if you use Afterburner instead of Precision X, you can only control the GPU fan, and not the second fan, so the second fan won't even spin.

Recently upgrade to a GTX 1080Ti SC2 by EVGA, and from research I have learned that in order to utlisie the asynchronous fan control technology I had to use their EVGA Precision X OC software, which is fair enough.
