[@manny8786]

The performance of your PC is directly proportional to the RGB index. The RGB index is calculated by the sum of the red, green and blue luminosity emitted from the PC and dividing it by the total volume of the PC.

(For AMD cards only) settings>display GPU Scaling: enabled Scaling Mode: Full panel (don't use 'preserve aspect ratio'} Integer Scaling: disabled After years of playing best setting I have encountered to play at non-native resolution, without making image look ugly blurry. Had to share with those who needed some insight to play on lower resolution rather than native resolution of their monitor. Edit: enable anti lag for smooth input experience. Best setting to be enabled for weak GPUs.

I downloaded MSI before and tried to overclock but everytime I clicked on the OC button and tried to run the test it would fail.

hey so everything saves in msi after burner except my temp limit, maximum is 90 i tried 85-88 but it keeps resetting to 83 i saved to slot, locked it, apply at windows startup and still resets to 83 cant figure out whats wrong.

[@darkthef34r7]

which is more accurate? At the start MSI kombuster stated that i had 113C but on MSI After Burner it stated a steady 50C. If Kombuster is inaccurate how do i fix this issue, or what is more trust worthy between the two? Also farther into the stress test is started to show 130C! While AfterBurner was still stating temps near the high 50s.

[@goku546686]

If hwinfo tells you the temp is at 113°c you need to reduce the top temp allowance on the app but keep the fan speed decently high. Alot of gpu aren't meant to overclock and many cpu aren't meant to do so either. In worse case scenario you may need to invest in a better gpu. Best case you need more or better case fans as the airflow is bad in your pc. ( before EVER OVERCLOCKING ANYTHING make sure your pc is spotless in the dust department. Gpu can and will catch fire. Honestly don't push the gpu to its limits right off the bat increase its max running capability slowly. My suggestion don't let anything in your pc go above 80°c. I ALWAYS have task manager ready to shut down any stress test app once my cpu and gpu reach past 87°. Honestly at least for the cpu it'll throttle down after 75° and do the opposite of boost performance. Gpu will run the same way.
