Hey,
Before i start, my specs are:
CPU: I5 3570K overclocked to 4.1ghz (stable)
Mobo: GA Z77X - UD5H
RAM: Corsair Vengence 16Gb X2 8Gb
GPU: EVGA GTX780TI
This system is on a single loop with GPU and CPU cooled by 2 360 rads.
Ive just recently brought the waterblock for the GPU and installed it, Now comes the overclocking part.
GPU sits idle now at 22 degrees.
Ive been trying to use MSI afterburner to up the GPU and using Valley Benchmark 1.0 to monitor progress, GPUZ in the back to also monitor temps etc.
So far ive not touched the voltages.
and ive managed to up the core and memory by 150Mhz before crashes. Anything above this will cause the program to crash with an error message relating to D3d initialisation.
(GPU temp has not gone about 30 at this point so i know its not overheating)
I assuming this is due to the voltage not being enough when i try to go beyond 200Mhz?
CPU overclocking i seem to have a handle on but GPU im not so sure on.
Can anyone offer me some advice please?
Cheers
Tom
