    I use Rivatuner and have my settings OC'd @ 625/1325/950 but when I monitor during gameplay, the monitoring graphs are reading 675/1400+/950.

    What gives?

    Monitor graph doesn't read correctly. Just assume whatever you set the clock to is the clock its on.

    Just the way it is. Maybe fixed in the next release which should be out sometime in the near future.
