What Third-Party Systems ARE Whitelisted?

I was recently trying to use RivaTuner and MSI Afterburner in an attempt to lower my frame rate (helps with movement), and I was wondering if it could potentially get me banned? If so, is there any known alternatives for modifying FPS to my wants? I've looked everywhere, and from what I can tell, Third-Party options seem to be it.

    Nobody knows honestly...

    Better ask the devs directly.

    I don't think the devs have ever addressed this clearly. I believe the rules stated that any unauthorized 3rd party system was cheating, but they haven't taken any action against comms. I think everyone would really appreciate some clarity at the moment.

    they will never talk about it. they dodge the question just like they dodge the report form question.

    Personally, I hope everything Third-Party is bannable, you should not use any of them in any way since it's modifying the game and would be classified as cheating in many other games

    also gives you advantage and BS like how you are able to block players and such, people who uses these needs to be perma banned

    RivaTuner or MSI Afterburner won’t get you banned.

    Well crap thanks for that list, we've been wondering if it existed.

    Looks like everyone needs to switch their discord to Curse Voice

    I mine crypto and have used both riva and afterburner on my system since i started dbd. Think its safe or i would have gotten banned by now for daring to attempt to increase FPS. This game ran like a dog on my old system using a gtx 950 2 gig.
