MSI Afterburner It has not got official support From hardware manufacturer MSI, developer Alexey “Unwinder” Nicolaychuk revealed. We are talking about the most widely used overclocking software in the world, which in this way is a risk until death.
the reason? there The war in Ukraine. Basically, the economic sanctions against Russia, due to the invasion of Ukraine, which have now lasted for almost a year, do not allow MSI to fulfill the obligations it has undertaken with the developers. Alexey will try to implement the project himself, but only in his free time, because he no longer receives money for its development.
the Message To which the developer explained the situation very gloomily: “War and politics are the reasons. I didn’t mention them in the development news thread, but the project has been abandoned by the company for a long time now. By the way, it’s been almost a year since MSI stopped fulfilling its obligations under the Afterburner license because of ” Political situation”. I’ve tried to stay true to my commitments and have been working on the project on my own for the past 11 months but have had nothing but disappointments. I feel like I’m still beating water in a mortar and wasting energy on something the company no longer needs Whatever it is, I will continue to support this myself as long as I have some free time, but I will probably have to give it up and move on doing something else to pay the bills.”
MSI Afterburner is, as mentioned earlier, the most used software for overclocking GPUs. spiritual successor to Riva tuner, over the years a reference point for practice enthusiasts. Not many imagined the situation, because MSI continues to include it in its official software, so much so that it published a tweet just in November calling us to beware of potentially dangerous pirated versions. It also boasted of adding support for the latest GPUs, like Nvidia’s RTX 4070.
