MSI Afterburner, EVGA PrecisionX and GPU tweak ii for ASUS GTX 1070 - comparison
I tried these overclocking tools recently and saw different outcomes. EVGA PrecisionX produced very low frame rates—35 to 50 frames per second—on ultra settings for Crysis 3 and Metro, while MSI afterburner gave 45 to 120 fps. At first, I thought my system might not be working properly with the EVGA tool. Later, I became more confident using MSI afterburner because it felt more natural and comfortable. Note: I only tweaked the GPU briefly and didn’t check the results on my games.
EVGA Precision is a direct copy of MSI afterburner, sharing the same designer and code in its early versions, just with a different appearance. It's often seen as a lower-quality product, especially since it no longer replicates most of MSI afterburner's functionality. Despite this, some users might still achieve impressive overclocking success with it. The varying results come from the instability of the overclock process.

Ingart33 shared his thoughts on EVGA Precision, noting it closely resembles MSI Afterburner with similarities in design and code, though it lacks the same performance. He acknowledges that stability issues were a major concern. The response seeks clarification on whether the utility affects game stability or if the software itself is unstable, especially for someone new to MSI Afterburner.
