Trying to overclock it. I've been using the AMD Overdrive Section in the Catalyst Manager. It says I can crank it up to 1425, and the RAM to 2000 MHz. But whenever I do, a bunch of lines appears on the screen and it goes blue. I have to restart and lower the settings. I know that I can get it up to 1270 and it won't do that. But I'm wondering why I can't go higher. I'm using an i5-3350P, overclocked to 3.5 GHz on an ASRock Pro3 z77 board. The card is in the PCIe 2.0 slot b/c I had trouble with the 3.0 slot.
Is it a bandwith problem, or can my system just not handle it?
On a sidenote, when I tried to use MSI Afterburner I couldn't go past 1270, even if Overdrive was set higher.
