Hey guys,

Im new to this pc world but hae learned alot sincecoming into it about 2 months ago. Where I am pretty green i when it comes to graphics settings, graphics statistics etc. For now though my main question is whether my gpu clock and gpu voltage is ok to run with. I do not overclock my gpu card(yet), Its an EVGA 760 GTX.

GPU clock: 135 MHz
GPU voltage: 875

I looked clocks up online and most people seem to have higher numbers so Im just hoping Im not suppressing my video card from running optimally. If anyone can shed some light on this Id appreciate it.

Okay. That is fine. All it is doing is reducing the clock speed for temps and power savings when the GPU is not in use. My GPU does the same thing. When gaming, it will go up by itself to meet the performance required and the voltage will follow. Stock settings will be good.

Is that a +135MHz? And where did you read that number from?

Im not sure if its +. There is no plus before it. Just says 135 MHZ. I just quickly checked again and it jumped to 700, and now its back at 135...
I am reading this from EVGA precision X software.

If you have time for one more, Im looking for software where I can monitor my frame rate as well as maybe temps. I heard there's in game commands I could do but that software works best. Im thinking Fraps?

Definitely. The stock setting are always safe. (Should always be safe and if not, return the device for malfunctioning). EVGA Precision X is fantastic as well. If you plan on overclocking, it is a great tool.

Glad to see I have helped. :)

Always time for one more! :) FRAPS is great for FPS counting. EVGA PrecisionX has its own hardware monitoring. I'm not too sure about in game commands, but I used to use a second monitor with EVGA open while gaming on the other. If this isn't an option, you can have it record the results as well. There are benchmarking tools avaliable like the Unengine Heaven 4, Fur Mark, TessMark, FluidMark which all have realtime onscreen monitors while you bench/stress test your GPU.
