GTX 680 SLI Overclocking Issues
Hey guys, I've purchased my new computer on 19th of August.
It's specs are Intel Core i7-3820 CPU @ 3.60GHz, 32 GB RAM and Dual GTX 680 SLI.
Now, this is my first gaming rig that I've purchased, so of course after I got it, I started running different benchmarking tests to see how it does. I got the EVGA Precision X and after watching many guides, set up clock offsets that seemed to be at reasonable numbers. When running different benchmarking tests, I've found out that whenever my GPU usage reached 100%, my computer freezed and a few times I got Red Screen of Death. So, I tried running benchmarks with EVGA Precision X off, and had no problems. I know that GPU offsets work like this: once usage reachers 100%, then boosts and overclocks kick in, which shows that there is something wrong with my overclock values or there is a problem with the way EVGA handles overclocks with my GPUs.
Anyhow, I just wanted to find out if something could be done about it.
