Hello guys. So thanks to some awesome TS members valuable input, I put together this PC knowing that I will be using the IGP for a while until I get dedicated GPU(s), and I am actually really satisfied with the performance.
Essentially, there isn't a game that's unplayable, with the APU even handling the newest titles with High graphical settings quite well. Now, I may not be getting incredible frame rates (usually 35-45 FPS), for a system without a dedicated GPU, that's pretty damn good if you ask me.
Now, my question is - I pushed the GPU cores on the CPU from default 844 MHz to 1022 MHz, and the system is working flawlessly, I get no crashes while gaming. If I push it to 1088 MHz, games will start crashing and the system becomes slightly unstable. Now, is this the max I can push the GPU frequency? If I underclocked the CPU cores, is there a possibility I could crank up the GPU cores furhter? Also, I just adjusted the frequency, I did not do anything with the voltage, and I am not sure if I should, but could it be a voltage issue?
Any input is highly appreciated, but the ~200 MHz overclock makes a huge impact on gaming performance, it would be awesome if I could push it even further until I get a dedicated GPU.
