Hi guys, I just recently bought an VTX 7870, i am having problems with overclocking it, the core clock is 975mhz and the memory clock is 1500 by default, the core clock runs at 925mhz in game, when i decided to overclock i changed the core clock to 1000mhz and the memory clock to 1550mhz but ingame its still running at 925mhz, when i first start up my game it runs at the overclocked setting but only for like 2/3 seconds, i have tried this in both in MSI Afterburner and CCC, anyone got any advice that may help me out?
 
Solution
Did you move the power limit bar all the way over? Don't overclock core and memory at the same time. Do one then make sure it works then do the other, back and forth.
