    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST GTA 5 and other AAA games unplayable due to microstutter on 780 ti

    As the title says I'm getting incredibly annoyed by my computer micro stuttering in intense real world game scenarios. I have tested with furmark, and to the naked eye I cannot see the same results, since I had my GPU replaced the first time, I've had a constant coil whine and when the micro...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Quick GPU over-clocking question!

    Just wondering, hypothetically if I overclocked my GPU core clock and mem clock using evga precision X, would that mean that the frequency I set them to are constant, or will it stay as is and adaptively change the clock rate but with a higher maximum? If not then is there a setting or some...
