hi under setting allow constant voltage and unlock voltage control standard msi. the problem that i have is adjusting the voiltage because it is a offset option with a 0-37 amount level. i dont know the voltage at all, and im confused on what to set it on. my initial thought would be increase the value by 1 and so on.

i would just leave the voltage alone, but theere is a reason i want to increase it. the cards are overlocked, my GPU clock and memory, it is stable in everyway i tested it, weather running benchmark programs or playing computer games. but there is one problem, one of my favourite computer games crysis has continuely started to crash. it goes to windows and gives the display driver stopped working. normally i would think that my memory clock or gpu clock are too high, so i decrease the value. it is not because of that. so i started to read forums on people having the same problem. eventually everyone concluding that this game has this problem on stock voltage setting. so they sujjested to simply increase your voltage as little as possible. on the forum i ready this resolved the issue on every case. therefore i thought it would fix it for me also.

Your STRIX card won't go above 1.212v no matter what you set in Afterburner. Have at it....it should run that all day long with no problems. In fact, if you watch the sensors tab in GPUz, you're probably already running that voltage at your boost clocks.
