Hi all, this morning I just updated the MSI Gaming APP to version 6.0.0.17. Previously, I was using the version rolled out in June of this year. When using the previous version, selecting Silent Mode clocked the GPU to 970Mhz, Gaming Mode to 980Mhz and OC Mode to 1000Mhz. These clocks were held constantly without dropping all throughout (I kept an eye on things via MSI Afterburner OSD), until I set everything back to Silent Mode and closed the APP. Now, with the newer version, whenever I select one of the 3 modes, the clock still shows 300Mhz (which is the idle clock) and when gaming, the card never clocks up to the indicated speeds (970/980/1000Mhz). It keeps fluctuating from 300Mhz to the 900s and never settling (as it used to do on the older version). On a sidenote, the CPU clock is still working correctly (i.e. adjusts on Silent Mode, fixed at 3.7Ghz (max) on Gaming and OC Mode). My hardware is the following:

Motherboard: MSI B150A Gaming Pro (MS-7978/1.B). I just updated the BIOS this morning as well.
Graphics Card: MSI R9 380 Gaming 2G
Processor: Intel Core i3 6100
Memory: 8Gb Corsair ValueSelect DDR4 2133Mhz
Storage: 120Gb SanDisk SSD, 250Gb Samsung SSD, 500Gb Western Digital Caviar Blue HDD.
Power Supply: EVGA 500W 80+ White

Any help would be greatly appreciated as the fluctuation in clock speeds creates lots of stuttering during gameplay. If anyone can at least provide me with the download site for the previous version, that would also be very helpful.

Thanks

Thanks for the help. Unfortunately, that version is too old and prompts me to "Update graphics card drivers" before closing automatically. I have managed to find version 5.0.0.28 and am using at at the moment, but if I could find the June 2016 update that would be ideal. Thanks again
