Gpu overclock crash only on steam games.
Hello.
i am having a very weird problem with steam.
Whenever i overclock my Gpu for the games i play on steam it crashes after a sort period of time
I am using ryzen 1700 @ 3.7ghz
32gb ram
Asus Gtx 970 Strix.
The gpu at default settings is working fine with Steam. I can apply a +175 mhz on core clock and +400mhz on Memory clock,+120 power limit +24 corevoltage for any game and any benchmark outside steam and it is 100% stable all the time.
But for example at Dota 2 after a couple minutes in game and temps at 50-55 c it crashes.
same thing with left for dead and warframe. The gpu at default settings is working fine

for the record, i have reinstall steam. i have reinstall wndows, nvidia drivers, i have tryed dx9 for dota 2 but nothing. also i treyd much more settle overclock and still teh crash occurs.
i cant find a solution enywhere.

Any ideas?

Where are you reading the temps from 50-55 is very cool for a card to be running at, even stock while under load and 20 degree below what is expected to see under a heavy of.
Which tests did you complete to check stability exactly and which games work with it ?
Could you link your 4dmark firestrike results ? If not, please run the free version and do so.
Also, have you tested each part of your overclock individually ? The core voltage increase seems a bit high off the top of my head, but, not knowing the program used and the scale .?.

Remove overclocking.
Lower the GPU clock speed. It varies from company to company but my ASUS Strix NVIDIA GTX970 can safely OC to 1473MHz without any stability issues. Just dial back your settings until you become stable.

That running temp doesn't sound too unusual to me. I used to have a 970 Strix, it's a very cold card even when overclocked.

At factory settings I got about 55 under full gaming load, and for most of the card's life I ran it mildly overclocked with no notable increase in temps. With about a month to go before I replaced, I pushed the power and voltage to the absolute limit and still didn't have temperature issues. The card would plateau at about 68 in a stress-test with typical temps around 60-ish.

What I would be curious about is power. Not only the voltage for the card, but the PSU as well.

I am reading temps from AIDA64.
I do my benchmarks at Superpotition , Unigine Valley and Furmark.

i am using Corsair 550w 80 PLUS Gold.

yeah i did that, even if i apply +10mhz only on core at ANY game on steam. the game will crash eventually.

At the moment i am playing Mass Effect ANdromeda at 1500mhz (+171) core and 3947Mhz (+440) memory 100% stable with no issues. Thats the max overclock my Gtx 970 can reach stable.

Hmm 1500 on a 970 is close to record clocks, and only hitting 55 in fur mark seems very low (admitedly I am used to sli where temps are higher but that is very low).
How do the games crash ?
Any reports, bsod, right back to desktop?
I also take it you have aida64 on a second screen to monitor.
I would try with afterburners OSD so you can see if anything strange us happening when it crashes.
I've also had overclocks that would complete those benchmarks but wouldn't validate in firestrike before.

If it's not happening off of steam. Try disabling steam in-game overlay, it could be something is causing interference there with other monitoring software.
With it only happening in steam it might be linked to overlays, I've had issues with some in the past, only, oddly, not with steam.

That sounds like bad data to me. I was running round 1479-ish and getting into the mid 60s. Either OP has a magnificent mutant of a card, or there's something wrong with their temperature monitor.

It could be that the readings are coming too late, after the benchmark ends. Where most GPUs cool slowly, Strix 970s crash-cool extremely quickly from high load. It wouldn't take a big time delay to completely invalidate your temp info.

Yeah that is why I was hoping for them to run it with afterburners OSD so it could be monitored in real-time, the furry donut of death is not mind to gpu's with my sli 980's hitting into the 80's when on full OC.
But why? Superposition has temp monitor on screen and at the end already. Same for Unigine Valley which is Unigine older benchmark.
Because those are benchmarks and not actual gameplay, also as I said I've had overclocks begins on heaven and supersition and fail on firestrike and time spy, there is something very odd happening so trying another form of monitoring that is free is hardly a bad option.
Though I suspect it may be due to overlays, so I would be interested to see if he still crashes with them all turned off along with any background programs such as Corsair's utility engine (cue) as some have a habit of causing g problems.

it's not stable. lower overclock.

why would you OC a gpu anyways, the performance gain is very small
that vaires by generation and it can get 5-10 fps increase at the best, which is nice and can mean playable or not, also, for benchmarking scores :)

How good it OCs depends on the GPU.

Overclocking the GPU could give you that little extra boost you needed to get a game running nicely.

Fun?
Free performance increase?
More fps?
