Hey guys, 
 
First time posting so sorry if this is in the wrong place. 
 
I am looking for a little bit of help. I have the EVGA 980 SC. I am able to run the GPU clocked with about +100MHz on the core and +300MHz on the memory. I put the power to 124% and the temp to 90 however max temp gets to 60. The test runs fine however when I launch ARMA 3 or even League of Legends the game loads for about 1 minute then the screen goes black and the GPU reverts to stock speeds. Also my ASIC is 71%. I am not sure what is happening as the benchmark runs no problem. I use Fire Strike and got the following results . Any help would be appreciated. 
 
Thanks!

    Something interesting I found is that if I run something light in the background such as the game Reflex then I cam play ARMA no problem. I am not sure what is causing this still.

    It is a known issue that board manufacturers and nVidia are trying hard to ignore it's existence. Maybe since nVidia messed up so hard with 900 series that they don't want the draw attention. I have been looking into this for months and so far, no official word from anyone.
