First of all, i have a gtx 970 g1 gaming.
So couple days ago i tried using MSI afterburner to OC my graphics card. I did some research and apparently +150 to the core clock and +200 to the memory clock is a good place to start. So i put that into MSI afterburner and clicked apply and my PC froze, i couldnt ctrl + alt +delete so i decided just to press the power off button. It turned back on fine and i decided not to give it a go for a while. Today i thought i would try again, but i realised i didnt have access to many of the sliders and i thought this was strange, so i went into Geforce experience and checked for an update but there were none. I also realized that when i went into the "my rig" tab my GPU wasn't showing up and i later realized it was the same case for MSI after burner. But i think the gpu still works?? because in games like rust i get ~100 fps on high settings and the windforce logo is lighting up on the card and the fans are spinning too. So my question is how do i get my GPU to show in MSI afterburner and Gfroce experience or is it ded? Also if i go into device manager, gtx 970 is listed under "display adapters" but i don't think anywhere else (idk if its meant to be listed somewhere else). The card has previously worked perfectly, i could use shadow play to record all my gameplay and everything was fine.
