My computer has been on for several hours. I just hopped into BF3 and was baffled as to why my frames were terrible. I noticed on the GPU Tweak monitor that I'm at stock clocks even though my overclock is applied. I tried restarting the application to no avail. This happen to anyone?
 
So weird. I restarted BF3 and the overclock is back in action. I had this problem quite a while ago where I had to leave a server and rejoin in order to get my usual frame rate, and I never knew what the reason was until now.
 
I've been gaming a lot lately and it hasn't happened again so... :shrug:
 
It might be because your board power usage is going outside its limits due to your overclock.

Who knows, that the only explanation i have.

I tried maxing out the power target % in GPU Tweak to 20, but it didn't help.
