    Hey guys, i've recently flashed my bios and got the unlocked ao8 and the vmodded ao8 i've done it all correctly cos theres so many more options in bios now haha.. and yeah but i can't seem to go ANY higher with my gpu on msi afterburner. 770/1540 is the max (core and shader) i keep my memory on 1080 cos that's all it really needs 2 be.. i'm wondering if i can oc my gpu in the bios? thanks!

    I own the m14x my only one, but I spend a lot of my spare time also looking at random computer stuff and as well as I go to college for Computer Systems Technology, most of my knowledge is around networking and operating systems.
