First, system specs: Windows 7 Ultimate, i7 3770k @4.0GHZ, 16GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600, EVGA SuperClocked GTX 680 2GB GDDR5 -SLI- Gigabyte OC GTX 680 2GB GDDR5.
As far as I know, that is all of the relevant data related to system specs, but I've a DxDiag report ready, if need be.
Simply put: I do not overclock my video cards(manually, anyway. EVGA Precision X software does occasionally), so they run at their default clocks of (EVGA) 1058MHz and (Gigabyte) 1071MHz, or rather they are supposed to. Often times, even in demanding games such as Metro: Last Light on highest settings and even Last Light with three display surround, my video cards underclock themselves(I'm guessing this may be the doing of EVGA Precision X) to obscenely low clocks(Gigabyte is running @705MHz with 987MV & EVGA @324MHz with 987MV) in games ranging from intensity of the aforementioned game to the Mount and Blade games, always resulting in low FPS.
All I wish to do is force my GPU clocks to their defaults so I can play demanding games on my system that should be more than capable of handling them.
Thanks, everyone!
***EDIT***
After fiddling around some, I discovered that it was that I had Frame Rate Target box checked(It was set to 60 FPS), but once I unchecked this, the screen tearing I've also been getting in games as well as the low frame rates are both gone. In addition, I've locked the profile to what I want it at, rather than leaving it unlocked and the settings seemingly randomly resetting.
