    Stuttering with new Monitor

    Hi so the 1050MhZ was me messing around with different settings I have tried under clocking to 800 and going as high as 1050 to see what would happen but the temperatures still skyrocket to 95-96 regardless. The fans are spinning OK I've checked while the GPU is under load. Also even at the...

    Stuttering with new Monitor

    I've tried various settings from uber high. To "so low its PlayStation 1 era" and it doesn't seem to help. Changing to 1080p helps and so does limiting FPS to 30 in witcher 3. The framerate is decent on games at 1440p not 60fps constantly but decent enough its smooth. On another note. I've...

    Stuttering with new Monitor

    Hi sorry for the delayed reply I work shifts so my free time during working days is limited. So I cleaned out the PC with an air duster GPU fans clear and no airflow issues. The case I am running is a corsair Carbide 500R midtower. It has 2 front 120MM fans intake, 1 200MM fan at the side...

    Stuttering with new Monitor

    OK so the RAM usage in witcher 3 is about 5.5-6GB /8GB. However I've downloaded and ran MSI Afterburner whilst playing the witcher 3 and found that my Max "Core Clock" of the GPU is set to 1030 MHz. During gaming its maxing out about 750 - 800 MHZ of that 1030. The Memory Clock is maxed out...

    Stuttering with new Monitor

    Hi everyone, So just a couple days ago I bought a new monitor. This one: https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/monitors/gaming/27--chg70-gaming-monitor-with-quantum-dot-lc27hg70qqnxza/ And let me say it works splendidly. Outside of games the picture is fine the 144Hz is smooth with my mouse...

    MSI R9 290x running a lot hotter than normal

    Thanks for all your help, i uninstalled MSi afterburner as it even crashed the PC a couple times last night and now the temperatures are OK again. I only used it to monitor the GPU temps and stuff but i already have HWmonitor for that anyway so it's not a big deal. Seriously thanks again for...

    MSI R9 290x running a lot hotter than normal

    So I've ran a virus scan or 2 and all is well, but everytime I restart the PC MSI afterburner shows that the voltage is back to +13. It's annoying. Should I put it to +0 and then immediately uninstall afterburner? Would that keep the voltage at the default?

    MSI R9 290x running a lot hotter than normal

    I might look into doing that. However I managed to get MSI afterburner to show the core voltage and it was at +13 not the default +0. So i put it back to +0 and the temperature in games is now 86-88 max. Which is still hotter than I was getting, but the weird thing is since I'm new to the...

    MSI R9 290x running a lot hotter than normal

    I know that 94 is ok for these cards but its just such a massive change from what was the norm when I got the card. And the fan speed goes up to 100% when the card gets to 80. One thing I just noticed this morning thiugh is that on MSI afterburner the core voldage and shader clock are...

    MSI R9 290x running a lot hotter than normal

    MSI R9 290x running a lot hotter than normal

    Hi everyone, So I know these R9 290x cards run hot. But in heavy gaming sessions in graphically intense games like BF4 multiplayer, Sleeping Dogs, Far Cry 3 the temperature was never above 80. 74-75 Celsius was about the norm. However, just this evening I was playing Archeage and noticed...
