I recently got my first graphics card in, the MSI GTX 660 TI Power Edition. I have only had for a few days and i decided to try overclocking it. Now I don't know a whole lot about overclocking, I just recently built this computer, and so i am somewhat of a beginner. I am also new to these forums so please be patient. Basically I tried overclocking using MSI Afterburner, and when i adjusted it a little bit there was no issues but there was no real performance increase. I tried bumping up the levels even more and then running MSI Kombustor, and it crashed then displayed this message..."The NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display driver due to exceeding the Windows Time-Out limit and is unable to continue." I googled it and i found that there are two different solutions to this issue... 1- Reduce the graphics workload if possible, such as rendering to a lower resolution or with less detail. 2- Increase the timeout to allow more time to complete the really tough rendering parts. Microsoft provides the information on how to modify the Windows Registry to achieve this. I DON'T want to turn anything down, but I have no Idea on how to modify the windows registry, anyone have any ideas?? I have... NZXT Switch 810 case Asus P8Z77-M Pro Motherboard Intel 3rd Gen.
