AFterburner is the best one hands down.

precision is second.

Thats based on the facts, afterburner can do more.

Sounds good but...
What can it exactly do that precision can't.I now that you can put a FPS target in precision but kinda almost everything looks the same,tough afterburner is still in my opinion easier to use,but well anyway wich can do more and wich has better stbility or less compatibility problems

Afterburner has better fan settings and also it allow more control over the clock of the gpu.

they are both stable and no compatibility issues that I know of, the only thing is that with afterburner my gpus sometimes down clock 50% if the heat is too high.

You can have them both installed but if you run both, whichever you ran last will override the other's settings.

Hi again well here it goes.

I installed both and just noticed i selected 0% increment on any clock
and both AB and precision show i have a clock of 992 mhz

I mean it looks like i had a permanent OC.

Plus clock never lowers it always running at max wich is increasing my temperatures a lot

Any help?

Strange i installed GPU Z and it says both GPU are at default speeds while both AB and precision say one is permanently at 992 MHz and plus it's always at 60+ C even when idle while the other one is at near 40 so please can you help me.

BTW when i raise clock in any program it does reflect in GPU Z but just show whatever i added for example:

Clock is at 860 in GPU Z AB and Precision say it's at 922.
I add 50 mhz to clock and AB and precision say 977 while GPU Z says 910

Please help me

some times it's easier to just post again than click the edit button.  Laziness FTW!

Less clicks = better!
