You can try RivaTuner Statistics Server (RTSS) with HWiNFO to display OSD items, which I personally like mucho better than Afterburner's OSD layout due to the different options available.

1. Grab HWiNFO (Installer or Portable)
2. Grab RivaTuner Statistics Server (Standalone or with MSI Afterburner)
3. Open HWiNFO 'Sensors'
4. Open the 'Configure Sensors' settings at the bottom
5. Open the 'OSD (RTSS)' tab
6. Select any items under 'Entry'
7. Checkmark to 'Show value in OSD' and 'Show label in OSD'
8. Done
9. Run both HWiNFO and RTSS for your selected OSD items to be displayed

Adjust the total OSD location and size in RTSS..Select how OSD items are arranged in HWiNFO using the 'Line' (vertical) and 'Column' (horizontal) positions..For example, to vertically stack items, select the first item, then make the 'Position' 1..Select the second item and make it 2..Third item 3, etc..You can choose different colors for items..Graphing is possible too.
 
There are numerous items in HWiNFO you can display on-screen in real-time for information and diagnostic purposes with RTSS..Very nice program combo!
 
You can also run MSI Afterburner and EVGA Precision at the same time, using Precision for card control while using Afterburner with RivaTuner Statistics Server (RTSS) for OSD if you want to.

If you want to see Frames Per Second (FPS) using RivaTuner Statistics Server, turn on 'Show own statistics' in the RTSS settings.

The 'Application detection level' may need to be increased in RTSS if no OSD is displayed in some games/apps.

    Thanks, Cool.

    Yeah, I run the Standalone RivaTuner Statistics Server and HWiNFO for OSD when needed while running Precision for card control..Works well when Precision's OSD doesn't or if one wants/needs additional OSD items that neither Precision nor Afterburner have to offer.

    +1 for HWinfo for those kind of roles. A lot of people don't seem to know how good it is for OSD - or even OLED display readouts (you can customise it on there, like a mini-monitor)

    I'd like to read CPU temps.
    Is there a way to send the sensor data of HWinfo directly to Precision X1's OSD, without RTSS? 
    In the past I wasn't able to use the GOG Galaxy overlay when RTSS was installed and Afterburner was running. (There was no way to shut RTSS down when Afterburner was launched, it always restarted after closing.)

    HWinfo is a crucial part of any build. One of my first installed programs every time
