    Program to track CPU and GPU usage simultaniously?

    Some program that tracks CPU and GPU usage during games easily?
    Over a period of time.

    I use MSI afterburner on 2x XFX cards so I wouldn't see why not. It accesses the sensors and if any companies are not going to be super duper proprietorial its MSI/Asus/Sapphire/XFX/BFG/thelistgoeson.jpg

    Give it a whirl, its a 30 second install and if it doesnt work it wont hurt your machine at all.

    The graphs do. The overclocking capabilities do not.

    Afterburner shows my VRAM usage wrong.

    Maybe you know your vram usage wrong. Check your math twice, then yell at the software that accesses your OS and mobostatics directly.

    Yeah, I think VRAM has been a bit goofy as of late on Afterburner, I think we found that out a week ago didn't we

    No, I remember there was a problem with his/her's reporting. BF3, max, 1080p was reporting like 500mb of VRAM useage with 2 cards. It's really more like 1.5GB.

    If I'm not mistaken, that may be a conflict of MSI running a 32bit system with 7 and vista compatability mode enabled, IDK if they made a 64 bit I havent used it in a while.

    Yeah well as i said. afterburner wont even start for me.

    Asus probe or EVGA precision - same story diffrent company - give it a whirl.

    Sorry. But since when did EVGA precision track CPU usage over a period of time...?
    And damn. It doesnt even track GPU Usage either by the way

    edit: Sure i could just alt tab out of a game to Task Manager and GPU-Z to see the usage of my CPU and GPU
    But my point is that is there a program that lets me do this easier

    You know... that after a game i can just check that... my CPU usage was AVG/MAX for example 90%...
    and same for my 6870

    Task manager really isn't a very accurate means of measuring CPU usage unfortunately.

    You must not have read the thread title portion that said "CPU" and the word "simultaneously"

    Is there a way for those to show the numbers in game. I have been using afterburner but to get any ifo I have to tab out which obviously changes the numbers and really just leaves me to guess work.
    My System
    Ivy Bridge 3570k OC 4.0
    ASRock Z77 Extreme4
    Saphire 290
    Mushkin Enhanced Blackline Frostbyte DDR3 1600 8GB

    You got it. My actual usage is something in the 1100s typically at 1080p. GPU-Z shows this, but Afterburner shows the same as the GPU gadget does for VRAM. So far, the only thing Afterburner gets right is my clock speed, voltage, and usage.
