Too Much Overclocking

Ronanwar

Well, I was messing with the controls and was seeing how far each bar can go to. I think I accidentally pressed apply and my monitors all turned pink and yellow and had to start in safe mode to uninstall the program. The program I used is precision X. GTX 760. Is that bad? Well it damage the card?

No, your card is fine just set the overclock back to stock. Also look around for some guides for GPU overclocking and follow them.

Yet another OC OD, as said just set everything to default, remember to be moderate when doing this kind of thing.

Case Bitfenix Ghost, Mobo Asus Maximus VIII Ranger, CPU i7 6700K @4.2 Ghz cooled by Arctic cooling Freezer i30, (barely). GPU Nvidia GTX 970 Gigabyte G1 @1519Mhz core, RAM 16Gb Crucial Ballistix CL16 @2400Mhz.

If it isn't working absolutely perfectly, according to all your assumptions, it is broken.

18months and the HD4870, had 3 of them. Loved the performance Jump from the previously installed HD3850

In hindsight I really wish I added smaller fans to those unfanned fin stocks surrounding the heatpipes.DSCF0010.JPG

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

you can never have too much overclocking. it was probably the limit of the memory or memory controller. just put it back 25mhz or so and it'll be fine. it better to know what the limit of the card is than to have a possibly slower pc when you could run it faster.  :)
