Along with the hardware that MSI is teasing us with at CES comes a project worthy of note. It would seem that MSI has been working with HTC to provide out of the box support for the Vive, assuming you buy components with the power to push that many pixels at the necessary speed. There is little meat as to the specifics but any work done before the product is released which gives first adopters a helping hand is a valuable thing when it comes to sales.
For those gamers who love to livestream their gaming sessions or record them for editing and later publication should take a peek at Dragon Eye and Nahimic 2, two new software tools MSI will be releasing. Nahimic 2 is an HD Audio Recorder to ensure captured or broadcasted audio is of high quality and also includes Sound Tracker which will give you graphic indications of noise sources in games, assuming you would stoop that low. Dragon Eye is for video and its usage is also quite different from Nahamic2. It will allow you to easily use its picture-in-picture feature to watch Youtube videos and other streams in a small window while you are gaming.
At the very least it will be handy to see your team mates screen or to watch a walkthrough while playing a game, again assuming a certain moral turpitude on the part of the player.

This would basically allow people to play without sound and folks would be accused of Wallhack in random/casual CS:GO matches.
“It will allow you to easily use its picture-in-picture feature to watch Youtube videos and other streams in a small window while you are gaming. ”
Very useful for co-op playing if you’re two guys playing a game and it would allow players who don’t have exceptional comm in-game skills to be more even with much better players and instead allow people to talk about the game itself, how fun it is or more useful stuff. Fun feature.
