Hi guys,
I ask you guys yet again for some help. I wanted to finally OC my R9 280x Direct CUii and I punched in 1170 and i thought oh wow it can actually run at that speed without crashing so i was happy (stock is 1070) but when I was looking at my temps on MSI afterburner it showed that my Core clock is 970Mhz. I can remember putting my clock to 970 a long time ago I don't know why but i did it. but it seems that stayed in there somehow. I'll show some Screencaps later. even in game it shows me 970Mhz and the same for Aida64 GPU stress test but the temps are rising while doing it so i'd assume something is happening. I also used AMD's crimson software to check Clockspeeds to be sure. that is also in the Screencaps.
I'd really like someone to tell me why this is happening.
Thanks in advance. any answers are welcome as always.
