Your card is fine dude it is nvidia's support (or lack of support) for the kepler architecture that is causing this. I am guessing that you have recently updated your drivers? Allegedly the green team is going to release a driver to help none maxwell architecture cards but this remains to be seen and I wouldn't hold you breath dude.

Yes, I can increase the clock and voltage to the CPU easily just a case of hitting the +/- keys. msi have a fantastic recovery system in place if I cock up. I manually increased the clock to 4.0Ghz yesterday (without increasing the voltage) and it seemed stable whilst playing CS:GO. After about 3 hours the blue screen of death appeared so I went back in to the bios and hit F6 and returned it to Stock.

I thought as much, 3.7 seems stable enough at the minute. Looks like this is the sacrifice I will have to make for choosing a small form factor. Thanks for the reply.

Greetings, I have recently overclocked my 4770k, for the 1st time ever and I used the msi OC Genie to do so. I am a little disappointed with the OC, I gained an massive .2Ghz increasing the clock from 3.5 to 3.7GHz. My understanding of Genie, is that it "looks" at your system and comes up with the best efficient overclock available(?) I suppose the question I am asking is, has anyone out there significantly overclocked their 4770k on mini ITX board and got stable results? There is plenty of tutorials to OC CPUs on "full" gaming boards but very little in the way of mini ITX's Thanks in advance. Dread

It depends on what you want to achieve from your rig dude, 2014 we seen a shift in gaming requirements, leaving the "next gen" for dust. If you have any spare cash I would get rid of the amd processor, its going to bottleneck gaming horrifically. an i5 4690k would complement your rig beautifully. You have to get rid of that cpu dude. 30fps(max) medium/high settings is probably where you are a right now for the likes of GTA V adding an 4690k will probably push you to a good mix of high/very high settings at 40fps+ (minimum) with a good overclock/hyperthreading. If you can add a 970 in place of 7590 you'll be 60fps ultra settings happy. it's a choice between console experience or pc experience.

AMD FX-8320 - this is the problem dude, possibly your motherboard too but deffo your fx-8320. Banish and use your spare cash for: Intel Core i5 4690K 4th Generation Haswell Quad Core Desktop Processor I have a Ti (running overclocked to 1291MHz on the core and 1851 on the memory) I have a 4770k running at stock 3.5gb. I have everything up at Very High settings including grass, fxaa on with 2 x msaa and 8 x msaa on shadows, running sharp shadows, nothing in advanced is touched. I am getting about 85fps in the city and 60-70fps in the countryside and desert.
