Hi, i was playing around with the MSI gaming app software on my pc and i wanted to see what gaming mode was, but after pressing it i was a bit lost how to stop it. How do i reset it so its like it was before with none of the three buttons selected? I read on other threads that its gaming mode by standard, but i wanna make sure. Also, is Gaming mode overclock? I will lose my guarantee if i overclock, and i dont wish to lose my guarantee. Can i also use the cooldown button or the silent mode without any damage/overclock? Also, my intel i7 6700 (non k) says its 3.4 GHz on the box, but its all up on 3800-3900 mhz when i got it on gaming mode?
EDIT: Its actually even up on 4000 mhz, which i guess is 4.0 Ghz? How can that be if the CPU is only 3.4 GHz?
Here is my specs:
Motherboard: H170A Gaming PRO
GPU: MSI GTX 970 Twin Frozr.
CPU: Intel i5 6700 (non k)
Cooling: Corsair h55 watercooler.
1 TB harddisk and 120GB samsung SSD.
