Hello, I'm using an Intel core i7 870 with a standard H55 motherboard. My system is an OEM from Gateway with 12GB DDR3-1333 RAM, but whenever I attempt to install any overclock on my EVGA GTX 960 SSC 4GB, it crashes immediately. The game I try to run either refuses to start or displays "Graphics Hardware Cannot be accessed." Other titles like Rainbow Six Siege also freeze during missions. Could you help? It seems the issue might be with the motherboard or the GPU's ability to overclock?

What I'm attempting so far is using EVGA PrecisionX or MSI afterburner. Also, your GPU is the SSC version, which is the top OC version; you might not be able to overclock anymore. But give it a try with EVGA PrecisionX if you haven't already. And for the optimal gaming experience, you should opt for the best CPU/GPU.

I don't believe the issue lies with the SSC failing to OC, except in this particular case. In my experience, whenever I attempt to make changes, the GPU won't work properly and the system crashes during any program.
