I'm looking for an OSD that will give me GPU load (also in CF/SLI), VRAM usage, CPU load, CPU and GPU temps.

I have used Afterburner before but it was a bit of a hassle to set up. I think some of the data also were not displayed.

I'm on Windows 7 - 64 bit.

Ok. Which version are you using?

Do you have to combine it with something else (was it Rivatuner or something, can't remember)?

latest version, i think.
I only use this no any other app.
for configuring just go in settings monitoring tab and chose what you want to be shown in osd
then go to on screen display and set a hot key and done... easy.

I'm using the lates version now. I'm displaying GPU1 and 2 usage, framerate and GPU1 memory usage (is that the VRAM?)

But I don't know how you are displaying CPU (processor) temps and load, because they are not in the list. Are you sure you are just using Afterburner and nothing else?

How were you able to launch RTSS w/out Afterburner? Whenever I try to do so, it just gives me a launch error saying that 'RTSS.exe failed to launch'.

Seems like I have to start only Rivatuner OSD Server and not MSI Afterburner.
And also use hwinfo, like d1nky says.

RTSS, Afterburner, Precision it's all RTSS.exe. You can have Afterburner running if you want.

How were you able to launch RTSS w/out Afterburner? Whenever I try to do so, it just gives me a launch error saying that 'RTSS.exe failed to launch'.

You can just set it to start up with Windows from it's own window.

Mine is very basic, I don't use render mode due to the fps hit (so no custom font for me), and I usually don't show it at all unless I'm testing.
