Does my i5 3570K @ 4.4 Ghz can't handle my GPU OC?

[Sharchaster]

hello all

I want to looking some input from you all

Why when I overclocked my graphics card @1320/7300 I always get stable on 3DMARK11 benches, but when I test it on the games, I always get crashes in the first 10 minutes...

what should I do? does lowering the memory clock make my card get bottleneck, because of too low memory overclock? or my CPU can't handle my GPU OC for a long time, and what is the advantages of overclocking the core and the mem on the games?

I am using 310.70 WHQL driver.

I test it on MOH : Warfighter, have a same engine as BF3.

Thanks,

All the best,

Shar

Need to post the rest of your system specs including what type of Nvidia card you have.

Also, does it crash in any other game besides MoH?

The gpu overclock you fail at is too high.

This ^ your GPU is not stable.

does lowering my memory, can solve my problem, or I must lowering my core clock? my max stable OC on the games now is 1280.

No definitive answer. Try both.
