Which LCD screens work with MSI afterburner ??

chaparral · 6 Feb 2011 at 12:03

Does anyone know of any LCD screens that work with MSI afterburner apart from the logitech keyboard ones

As my logitech G15 keyboard is broken (some keys not working) and am hoping there some other different LCD's that will work with afterburner apart from only the logitech keyboard ones

You can get LCD screens that fit in your 5"25 drive bays / ext USB ones / LCD mounted in front of HTPC cases, etc
and i was wondering if afterburner worked with any of these

Couldn't say, why not buy another keyboard.

you could always get a g13 and just use the screen.... other than that check lcd smartie there may be a pulg in for one of the custom screen thingies.... or you could always just use the onscreen option in afterburner

Tryed that this morning and didn't like having all the infro on my screen..
Fraps running in one the corners is enough..

But Not at the same time as afterburner

Unless am doing something wrong :confused:

May have to just go for a G19 ( But don't know yet if i want spend that much money on a keyboard again)

yes very nice keyboard but not a very nice price, as for afterburner not showing fps i didn't do anything but tick it in afterburners options i think it even worked with fraps running as-well

I can't click to show FPS in my afterburner as it always greyed out

If you put a tick beside ' Framerate ' it should make the OSD option below available.

This. Even if it's out of warranty they'll give you a discount for a new one I heard.

My G15 most be years & years old by now..

I don't think i would have the cheek to e-mail them and ask

I Just seen the Logitech G510 on ocuk (goes off to look for reviews

)

Trust me, if you are polite, they will help you.
My MX mouse had a TINY problem but ithought i might aswell ask. They upgraded it and let me keep old one!
The product should have lasted the time - it's not cheeky to ask!
It's like asking for a free upgrade whenever you check in - if you don't ask you don't get (but still- be polite!)

How spooky is that

...my original G15 rev 1 gave up a couple of weeks ago aswell,and like you a few keys started to give up.Interested to see if there the same ones keys 0,- and + also the key 2 and 0 on the keypad.For some reason the letter L sometimes didnt respond if you pressed it twice to quickly

,lots of words spelt with double L kept coming out with one L when i was typing quick

.

I bought myself the rev 2 off amazon,cost me £62 if memory serves me right so not to bad.Not quite as good as rev 1 but not bad.

It the keys on the right side of the main keyboard..L,P,O,0,-,+ etc

Looks like it roughly the same problem/keys as you had
