I just tried switching out my 970 for an old HD 7870, and it worked perfectly with no underclocking. I guess this points to a problem with the card.

I tried three different ports on the PSU and a new cable. No dice. I'll have to continue this in the morning.

I hadn't thought of that. It's at around 50% TDP under 100% load. Is it likely just a faulty PSU/card?

It's the same with Heaven and Valley. Also Furmark.

I've already tried all of the above.

Yes

I'm using 350.12 and, yes, I've tried using DDU. Afterburner OSD (really cool, did not know about that) is also reporting ~500MHz. I also tried manually setting my fan speed to 50%. The temperature stayed around 45C, but it didn't help.

Yes The fans kick in at 65, and then it goes back down to 55-60. I'll can try turning them up more. I've tried removing the overclock and even uninstalling afterburner, so I don't think it's a problem with the software I'm using.

Just over a week ago (first noticed playing GTA V), I started getting some serious framerate issues with my GTX 970. GPU-Z shows my core clockspeed hovering around 500MHz, when It's overclocked to 1450MHz. When I set power management to "prefer maximum performance" in the Nvidia control panel...

Thanks!

So, I currently have a monitor and an Oculus Rift set to mirror each other. I want to get a secondary display, but I'm not sure exactly how it'll work with my rift. I want the secondary display to act as an extension of the main monitor (Easy enough with Windows 8), but I also want the rift to...
