Thanks for sharing all details.
Let's investigate if MSI Afterburner is returning the GPU names over the control interface that Awesome Miner uses.
1) Open a web browser on the computer where you run MSI Afterburner, where there are no GPU names.
2) Navigate to:
http://localhost:82/macm3) Enter username/password like this: MSIAfterburner/17cc95b4017d496f82
4) Please send me the output via mail or PM. Awesome Miner is reading all MSI Afterburner information, including GPU names, for this output.
Curious, it doesn't show on the remote system.. Here is the important section

But it does show on the machine with the 950

Notice the device="" isn't there on the first one and is on the second one
Both are windows 10, both same version of AM, same version of AB, same version of AB remote server.
