So I’ve had my 780 Classified Hydrocopper for nearly 4-5 years now and it’s been a beast. Still decent for today’s games and giving it to my kids. However, I noticed something disheartening. The 2600k that I overclocked using Turbo 4.4 (Asrock board) still runs at the same clocks as before. Yet my 780 can only run stock speeds now. Why does the GPU degrade while the CPU does not? Both have been pushed for benchmarks but only moderate overclocks for long-term use. Shouldn’t the 780 still be able to OC?
