Crash Fix when OC GPU

[Tune]

All my games besides Fallout 4 are able to run error / crash free with my GPU overclocked and have been doing so for years.

IF you get the following crash types and your GPU is manualy over clocked over factory settings then return your gpu back to stock/factory settings. If anything my testing has shown that the game crashes less frequently if at all.


IF game crashes straight back to desktop without any windows error message.
IF nvidia driver had faild but recovered.
IF screen frezzes then blue screens.

IF ANY ARE TRUE THEN STOP OVERCLOCKING THE GPU.

NOTE: Game is run at 1080p on ULTRA
If your game does not crash and you are not running it on ULTRA than this does not apply to you or it just might. For consistancy sake run on ultra,

My game would crash every time. Some times after 30 min an hour but would allways crash when gaming. I turned off my overclocks and it has been stable for 3hrs -- straight -- which would not be possable otherwise. I remember having to do this before with a new game as there is many causes why this happens but hoppfully, and like the other game, as the driver/game files mature i can return to my OC and the 5 to 8 additional FPS it brings.

EDIT:
Today I did a Steam “verify integrity of game cache” function and got this message, “161 files failed to validate and will be reacquired” Steam re-downloaded the corrupt files in no time and upon launching Fallout re-detected my video hardware and set video options accordingly. I don’t understand why it auto sets my video settings to high quality and not ULTRA as I meet the recommended requirements. I have I7-4790k and GTX 780 – so WTF! I’m not sure how this happened nor do I understand entirely what’s going on with “failed to validate” – WTF does that mean(I’m thinking hash code hum…)? Any ways I played the game 3 times and each time it crashed it is even worse im so tired of this $hit.
PS IF ANY ONE KNOWS OR HAS HAD SOME SUCCESS IN MAKING THIS GAME CRASH FREE, BY ALL MEANS SHARE YOUR FINDINGS!!!!@#$@%$

Me?

no, but if you are also running a masive oc like Prince-- are you experancing crashing in fallout4

@Prince, you'd be fine at around 1460mhz; these are my OC Settings:

GPU: GTX 750 2GB OC
Base Clock: 1058mhz


Core Modifier: +230mhz
Memory Modifier: +150mhz (2805mhz)

New Core Modifier: 1460mhz
New Memory Modifier: 2805mhz

Stable 60 celsius, only goes up to 70 depending on how much memory it's using.

you cant compare a 750 to a 770. two different worlds. And i understand why you guys are able to get higer clocks because you have less stream processors. Dont quite know how many those two cards the 770 and 750 have but the 780 has something like 2306

The 750 is weaker than an 770, there's no excuse for him to not go further if he so decides.
So yes, It's a fair comparison considering the card I'm running has less cuba cores and a lower base clock.

I take that back, it actually has the same base clock if he has the asus model, so he's more than capable of doing so.

You don't have to react that way, you can either believe me or don't, I could care less.

Show me the passmark scores -- its all that matters!!! here is my baseline for cpu, but gpu is oc

Scarecrow the 750 is a Maxwell architucture GPU and the 770 and 780 we are discussing are Kepler, so they don't compare.

If that's the case I'm staying well away from Kepler.

it depends on the gpu manufacturer but my clocks are allways higher than whats set in the boost clock oc, according to ASUS gpuTweak monitor it will boost 80mhz over what ever i set it to -- kinda strange

[Tune]

well im getting back to the game but let me know how your manually oc'ed cards are holding up when playing Fallout4.

For passmark are we talking about "Performance Test 8.0" ?

Sorry to have to ask, I'm not that familiar with Passmark - I'm more of a CPU OC with CPUZ validation man myself ;)

yea i believe that is correct. just click on the link i posted and download it its free for a month. I use it on all pc's as a final OC tweaking tool to see just how much i gained from the oc. Then just upload your results and pass the link. or just tell your Gpu G3D PASSMARK score

WHATs great about passmark is the huge database of other users to seave as comparision -- later

As I so CONSTANTLY say - How other games run has NO bearing on how any other game can, will or should. Some games may be fine with running on overclocked hardware while others simply may not be, for whatever reason.

It's troubleshooting 101, if you are overclocking and have problems, reduce to defaults for testing purposes.

引用自 Insertprofilenamehere：

A factory overclock may as well be stock clock, just saying. Factory overclocks are piddles.

Manual overclock =/= factory overclock

Overclocking is overclocking, there's really zero difference in the methods done to attain a stable overclock. The real difference is that factory overclocks are tuned by people who are much more experienced and have vastly more resources available than the average PC enthusiast does.
