Hey,
I'm trying to overclock my GPU right now, as I would like my FPS to be over 40 at all times in Crysis 3.
I've already bumped up the clock speed to 1ghz, up from 950mhz.
When I open the Sapphire TriXX software, the VDDC shows a default value of 1050.
This seems low for a 7970, I was hoping that I could get 1100mhz without touching voltage, but when I try to bump up the clock speed, Crysis 3 ends up crashing the driver or the game itself.
Am I doing something wrong? When I try to bump up the mV in MSI Afterburner (it has a default value of 1025) and then bump up the clock speed, I get artifacts coming out of characters while in-game.
EDIT: I also think it's worth noting that if I switch to the alternate BIOS on the 7970, the entire screen artifacts on the desktop after a while.
Thanks
