But to explain a thing. For the overclocking to "stick" the app has to be installed and run at boot time. Nothing wrong about that.
I used gigayte XTREME ENGINE to overclock my gpu. I only used the easy settig and i chose the "OC mode". But i accidentaly uninstalled the program and did the same stepp again. Is this gonna effet my gpu more?
