Hi,
This is my first time overclocking since overclocking a 9800pro- XT speeds...
I got the X edition VTX3D 1GB card (same as the powercolor pcs+) and have made a new build at last... tried my hand at overclocking. No overvolting has been used yet... I have gotten to 1115 core/ 1300 memory with no artifacts. However going to 1125 caused a black screen and a system freeze the 2 times I tried it...
I have 2 qs:
1- Could I have damaged the card (have never had a black screen in windows before- many bsods tho!)
2- Is the reason there is no artifacting because the card can go further but needs more voltage?
Sorry for me sounding crazy- just don't want to kill my new hardware and go back to the intel integrated gfx..!
