CCC and Afterburner

Arjai · Jul 28, 2015

OK, so, my gaming machine, Karen, has a little HDD. I need to know if I can swap the CCC, delete it, for MSI Afterburner.

Will I lose the Driver, Uninstalling CCC?

Is Afterburner a smaller footprint on my HDD?

Is this a stupid question for a person with a 7850? Doesn't CCC give me the best OC? I'm not willing to overvolt it.

I should just get another HDD, but I have no money, at the moment.

Forgive me my ignorance, google didn't help me find anything on this issue.

youve answered Your own question. if you need a bigger HD get one.. i Seriously doubt CCC is taking any real space. use CCC to OC, and monitor with GPU-Z or something...but afterburner and CCC cant take more than a GB together(actually i believe its 2GB's) , atleast i dont think, but You DO need CCC. if You have AMD GPU.

I use the Custom install method For CCC, and cut out all of the BS..like Craptor, and Accelerated ancoding, and HDMI audio, since I dont use them. dont install what You dont need.that should help.

I find CCC useful for messing with certain 3D and video setting, but I use afterburner for my OC needs. As jboydgolfer said, try installing it custom and cut out some of the junk AMD puts in there.
