    After I switched all those settings and maxed out settings in overwatch it started running over 1600 again. (I had not gone into NVidia control panel until someone mentioned it in this thread) It kept running at 1607 even after all games were closed. I switched the settings back for now and...

    1080 founders not running at full mhz speed?

    My old card was a 6950 amd. I uninstalled the catalyst control center using the control panel add/remove programs. I know it's a good idea to do a fresh install but hoped that would be enough.

    New build for wife - light gaming

    I did not realize that. I'll need to add in a heatsink.The 6600k is the same price as an i5 4690k so I'm pretty sure it's still worth going with the 6600k and new chipset/ram. Looking at the cooler master hyper 212 evo for the cooler.

    Computer upgrade question

    I am currently getting quite a bit of frame lag in Overwatch and thinking of upgrading my computer. I have the game on low graphics settings. It seems that I am having to restart my computer every 2 days or so to stop some of the frame lag. I am currently running an i5 4670k stock speed with 8...
