Limiting FPS is games with MSI Afterburner?

Heard somewhere that you can limit fps in games using MSI Afterburner, but I'm not sure how? I'd like to limit my FPS in all games to 60..
Thanks.

Turning vsync on I believe does that?

Not all games have V-sync though, I need to get a stable 60fps in Minecraft isntead of it going 300-150, it bugs me and I can feel the lag.

You shouldn't notice a change from 300-150? Skimmed through the afterburner manual and saw nothing of FPS limiting?

I do for some reason, it's weird... I get like little lag spikes. It's annoying

Youll need the latest beta version of afterburner.

I downloaded it and still didn't get the option?

Go to settings in afterburner, click on the on screen display menu bar, look down towards the bottom right, click more. This opens up the msi on screen display settings. Click the spanner icon at top right, fps limiter is in there.

It won't let me click 'More'
