    [SOLVED] Why does underclocking my GPU improve performance?

    Well even when using the 6 pin from the main PSU, I have issues. I highly doubt at this point that its a voltage or wattage issue. I think its just the GPU that's malfunctioning. Either way I was told it didn't work at all, but I got it to "work" on my first try. Maybe they meant "it doesn't...

    How would I stop it from pulling most of its wattage from the motherboard?

    [SOLVED] Why does underclocking my GPU improve performance?

    I don't believe that it is a power issue because I'm currently using a separate power supply (Thermaltake external PSU) specifically for the GPU. It has the same results as if I was using the 6pin power straight from the main PSU. EDIT: Tonight I am going to test the GPU out in another computer...

    [SOLVED] Why does underclocking my GPU improve performance?
