MSI afterburner system tray on 4k monitor.

[pku129f02a7]

Hello.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I was wondering if someone could help me.

I'm using afterburner to monitor my cpu and gpu temps, enabling it on system tray so I can see it on the fly.

But the problem is it doesn't scale with my 4k tv so the numbers end up looking really tiny and out of place.

How do I make the values look a big bigger on system tray?

Thanks

You can do that by changing the DPI settings. I just did it now successfully. Find your MSI Afterburner shortcut. Could be on your Desktop. Then right-click on it and select Properties. Select the Compatibility tab. Then near the bottom click "Change high DPI settings". Then at the bottom under "High DPI scaling override", click the checkbox and select System. Then click Ok.

That only changes the in-game data size, we're asking for the info on the system tray, i personally have it on my left secondary monitor on the tray so it doesn't use any part of my main screen.

What version of afterburner are you using? I don't see that option anywhere.

this forum is slightly older, but this is exactly what i was looking for. not OSD size, or MSI scaling size. but rivetuner's desktop window size. setting it to system worked like a charm. and now i can see it on a 4k 41in screen. so, THANK YOU!
