Hello,
I attempted to overclock my GTX1070 Strix OC edition using MSI Afterburner with adjustments (+5 power, +100mhz clock and memory speeds). The performance dropped significantly, dropping to around 30fps, and I found it extremely difficult to move the mouse due to heavy lag. After resetting MSI Afterburner to its default settings and uninstalling via Revo, I performed a fresh GPU driver installation, but the issue persists. Please advise.

Try running a CPU and GPU benchmark or stress test first to ensure your overclocked system is stable before diving into games. Please share your PC's specifications, along with the cooler details, so I can provide tailored advice.

you should begin by running a CPU and GPU benchmark or stress test before diving into gameplay to ensure your overclock is stable. could you share the details of your pc, including the cooler? my setup includes maximus x hero, i7-8700k with nzxt kraken x52 cooler, GTX 1070 strix OC directCU III, g.skill trident 16gb and corsair ax860i.
