Games that hate an overclocked GPU.

[House]

I built my new rig this weekend and spent most of Sunday tuning and Overclocking the CPU and GPU.

Got a nice stable runs with moderate overclock (4.6ghz CPU +150mhz offfset on GPU) nothing to taxing and it ran Firestrike, Valley and Heaven stable for over an hour with no significant temp rises.

Played the free copy of Rainbow 6 for about an hour, no problems. quick go on the witcher 3, no problems. Forza Horizon 3 couple of races OMG that looks amazing in 4k.

Then things go abit iffy Battlefield 4 locks up while testing, Overwatch locks up and says "Rendering Device lost" blah blah dont OC your graphics card.

To get a whole match out of Overwatch i have to remove the OC and close down EVGA Precision XOC completely, with BF4 i have to half the GPU overclock and that was only a quick test.

I have taken the GPU overclock off completely now.
Anyone got any advise or is it a case of those games just wont play ball?

Just thought I'd add that I see you said you oc your CPU and GPU - I highly recommend that you only do one at a time - so if there are any issues you know whats causing it

Yeah CPU was first and after i've removed the GPU OC so far everything is stable with the CPU at 4.6ghz.

Its kinda annoying i want to ramp up my 1080 Hybrid but right now it looks like ive paid for quiet not fast (or faster anyway), maybe ill take another crack at it next weekend.

Would switch to Afterburner over Precision X help? Overwatch in particular would crash is the app was even running.

Which other games are known trouble, so far its overwatch BF4 and Doco mentioned GTA Online.
