Hello,

I have a SLI 1080 HOF with a 7700k Intel and 32 gb 2400 MHz ram.

I have overclocked it so the clock would be somewhere close to 2030-2050 but not the GPU memory or voltage.

The problem is: while running games or benchmarks, the initial clock goes to 2050 and slowly goes back to 1974 (after 5 minutes or so). Doesn't matter if I reduce or increase the overclock, the amount always returns do 1974.

The temperature is fine, theCPU1 uses no more than 60% during watch dogs 2, and the fps is not capped.

Why is my clock always reducing to the same amount?

No more than 80, I changed the fan settings to avoid temps higher than 80

And afterburner doesn't show any message regarding temperature limit in osd.

The cards should be voltage locked as well so voltage might be the limiting factor. Also since the cards are running in sli the slower card will limit how high you can push your frequency.

But both GPUs reach 2050 in the beginning...

What do you suggest me to do?
