Gigabyte OC_Guru

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
Hello all I'm overclocking my new GTX 670 OC Windforce Gigabyte GPU using the Gigabyte Software OC_Guru.

I'm able to get the card to an okay overclock, 1.25Ghz with memory up to 1600.

The problem I'm having is when I'm running the OC software it makes a few of my games crash such as BF3, Guild Wars 2 wont even let me start the game with it running, and Hawken's UI becomes incredibly unresponsive and sluggish.

All is resolved if I turn off OC_Guru. I haven't tested other GPU oc'ing software. Any suggestions on what is causing this? and how to fix it?

Oh btw the ASIC score this card has is %100. ^_^

I forgot to add that I tested the overclocks on both Unigine Heaven and 3Dmark 11, no crashes, no problems.

The problem happens even if I leave the card at stock speeds, just running the program.

I think the program hates it, but I would use msi afterburner, I have also used it for my gigabyte overclocking and it is fine.

Maybe try reinstalling OC Guru

well you are right, seems that software conflicts with the games I'm playing.... I actually was testing out another bit of software. Precision X and it works wonderfully in all the games I couldn't get to work before.

Now to see if it'll help me overclock the card higher then the OC_Guru software. Thanks for responding ^_^
