Hi guys. New to TPU.
My gtx 970 was having throttling / fps dropping issues after i installed a new PSU. I didn't connect the main 24 pin ATX mb power cable properly and the pc wouldn't boot. Plugged it in correctly and everything was good but, my card seemed to be over-heating and i had major fps issues after this had happened. I did a fresh install of my drivers, uninstalled MSI afterburner and was still having the issues. Anyway. I remembered that power failure coud cause bios corruption so i flashed a fresh bios on the card ( the same bios ) . And my problems are gone.
Just to get your opinion. Do you think the card's bios got corrupted though overclocking or was it my new psu that caused some power issue and scrambled the bios ?
What's your thoughts ?
Thank you =D
