5 years later and this video just gave me a HUGE relief! I love you like I know you my whole life! I'm literally almost ready to cry from that stress that just left my body! I don't know what else to do to thank you other than like this video and subscribe to this channel! I wish you all the best in your life and those you love! THANK YOU
I know this video is 7 years old and you’ll probably never see this comment but OMG this video saved my life. I accidentally clicked the “save on startup” button. And I just spent hours reading through forums and nothing worked until I tried this. Why is NO ONE ELSE saying to do this trick. Everyone talks about clearing cmos, flashing bios etc but not just using safe mode and uninstalling after burner. Jay you are the best thank you
4aLse what do you do if it won’t even start up, and I tried to overclock I black screened and I took out the power cord and now it won’t turn on at all, Ives tried to take out the BIOS battery and now it won’t work st all
This literally happened to me today when I overclocked memory by 1000 with startup on. I literally did exactly as he said, freaked out, relaxed seeing windows load, freaked at black screen, then found out how to go into safe mode. I actually thought I cooked my card 😂
6 years later and this video is still helping noobies like me😂 i was laughing at the begining because i was panacing and thought my card was dead 😅 thanks for the help jay.
Finally this is exactly what happened to me 😂😂 I overclocked to 1000mhz to see what would happen which was stupid and I was freaking out.. thanks so much jay 🙏
You alluded to the fact that this is not the case for voltage overclocks, but you didn't actually talk about what to consider in those cases. Maybe a follow up video explaining the dangers associated with voltage overclocks, possible solutions to those problems and a general procedure to follow when trying to oc voltage would be helpful? Especially since it would help bridge the gap a little between complete novices and more experienced audiences, as quite a bit of your content recently has been aimed towards the former. I for one would love some tips for fixing voltage oc's as I have already ruined a few gpu's from lack of understanding of procedures. Great video though, helps people feel more free to get their money's worth!
Also I would like to point out that in windows 8.1 it's basically impossible to get into safe mode by mashing f8 due to load optimizations. The window where they register key presses is still there, but it's extremely small so you'd need either some really fast fingers or some luck. Alternatively you can boot to either a windows disk or usb drive with windows installer on it which will allow you to get to the same options page, if I remember correctly.
+sabotagekiwi Yeah I ran into the issue of not being able to enter BIOS on my W10 laptop the other day. I kept restarting and it would never register my key presses. When I actually shut down though instead of restarting it worked. I just installed Windows 10 on my desktop two days ago, haven't tested it actually, but the POST screen is visible for a couple seconds just like it was with Windows 7. I think there's a setting for fast boot within the Windows control panel, but fast boot is disabled by default in my BIOS (which I assume takes precedence).
Omg thank You so much I was so scared when my screen was all random colors I literally sat on the corner crying thinking my you was dead and it’s only a 70 dollar graphics card lol and then I overcloocked more reasonably and got a 40% increase
you can just hold the CTRL key on windows boot. it disables the apply on startup option in afterburner temporarily. dont know why nobody knows, its says it right there in the tooltip when you hover over the option!
There is a third method: Take the cooler off, and pour liquid nitrogen on it till u get the clockspeeds down, I mean if they can get a 6050x to 5.74ghz, it should keep it stable for long enough to disable the profile
Ah bless you, I was struggling from a bad overclock on my GPU and you saved the day. One note, you can get into the safe mode within Windows 10 as well - just hold down SHIFT, then chose the START button, then POWER and follow it by RESTART, then it will bring up the recovery settings as well.
I was terrified of building and tweaking with computers. Then I saw how Jay treats his stuff :P. Thanks for showing how sturdy the products actually are.
After watching this video, i had finally enough courage to start overclock my pc. After playing with the overclocking for a few hours, my screen froze. So i restarted my PC two times and on the third i could enable safe mode, delete afterburner, then go back into my pc, and IT wasnt destroyed, so i downloaded afterburner again, but didnt overclock too much, still my PC is much better then it was. I went from 9200 on firestrike, to 10900. I just wanted too thank you for this video, otherwise i wouldnt be able to get the full potential out of my pc
iLLixer404 Yeah. If you get an extreme edition CPU you have to do it some other way. But if you went normal cpu line (like I did) it makes your life easier
+OutcasT well, you could just try to get safe mode started as he suggested. You could then just fix the issue with the gpu you have installed already. Otherwise you're either looking for your old gpu that you just kept around for diagnostic purposes or looking for a really cheap gpu elsewhere.
Always keep a password on your user account, so then when you reach the log in screen (which won't open certain apps like afterburner), hold down the left shift key and then hit Windows restart button at the bottom right corner which will take you to startup options. This works inside Windows and for Windows 8, 8.1 and 10.
Remember to disable the "apply the boost on startup" option when you're trying to overclock? I always test and find the perfect overclock level before apply the boost on startup.
Got my HD7850 to a stable 1150mhz a couple years back based on your gpu oc video, it's still running strong. I've learned so much since then that overclocking seems like a no brainer to me, but I remember it being daunting and your videos really gave me the confidence to go ahead and play around and figure things out. I hope you never stop making instructional videos like these!

I owned an FX 4100 and overclocked it to 4.4 GHz on its stock cooler (the one with copper heat pipes). That was a pretty good CPU, it was great with my HD 6670 GDDR5 edition. But I had to sell it, needed money back then. Though I paired the FX with a GT 630. I am still using the 6670 with a Sempron 145 unlocked to Athlon x2 4450e and overclocked to 3.2 GHz (still stock cooler, but this one is that Aluminum one). It still servers me well, since I am a filthy casual gamer (I rarely play any games). Somebody had a Pentium 4 with Hyperthreading (the 3 GHz variant) paired with the GT 210, they worked pretty well together for a low-end PC.
I couldn't finish watching this "everybody has a spare 980ti" and I know he was being sarcastic but it hurts when you don't have that kind of Hardware at all like me
MSI Bugged once for me same way (I was downclocking my card) and it made like last number that was avaible when I pressed reset (so 23124123+MHz) - it was crashing every time. I just removed configs by live linux usb.
Awesome ! Also, downclocking is for real enthusiasts (power consumption / thermal enthusiasts, that is). I would like to do so too with my future build.
MrBiky with new cards there is almost no need to downclock your GPU - I was doing that because I was thinking it is overheating but that wasn't case ;)
I have had to down clock my GPU, due to my motherboard not coping with both my fx 8350 and 980ti. My cpu is stuck to a 4.3ghz oc at 4 cores. While my 980ti is stuck at 80% max power draw. It isn't the psu, for I had issues with a 1kw psu in it. Well, connected to it. The 1kw psu was from a late 2005 apple power mac G5, that I had modded.
Matthew Tremain I like that case, but I really wouldn't trust that 11 years PSU. Even PSUs today have a warranty of 10 years at most, and that's with 80 plus gold and platinum ratings. I am 90% sure that PSU isn't giving more than 500W by now. Considering an 8350 with OC can reach about 200W consumption and the 980Ti has a power draw of 250W + the rest of your components, I say you should at least try it with a good PSU. Of you have a friend that owns a more recent 1, you should try it (also, I guess you know, but 980Ti requires at least a 600W PSU, so anything beyond that should do). I had an old 450W PSU that had like 13-14 years and was still giving around 230-ish W and could power an FX 4100 and a Radeon 6670 GDDR5, but once I overclocked the CPU, system was unstable. Changed the PSU and the OC was never unstable again.
how? can you please explain. I got stuck with Overclocked clock settings.. I've Zotac Rtx 2070 mini .. i just tried Overclocking and i did around 1800-1900 something then after that I'm stuck with boost clock of what I've Overclocked. Even after uninstalling all drivers several times and Changing pcie slots as well. Please help
Just ran into this problem and have a quick alternative. Once you get into safe mode, instead of uninstalling msi, you can open it up in safe mode and uncheck the "Apply overclock at system start", then close and reboot. You may get an error message, but the setting sticks after you reboot.
i have the same problem, but it just a bit different. my card still alive, and not crashing, but its give lower fps, slower startup and i cant modify anymore in msi afterburner. can someone help me how to fix that?
@@RainyFN yp , i remove the card, give it a little paste on the gpu and reinstall. After that i go into the device manager, and update the driver. Thanks god gt 630 works again :)
If you have a Zotac card and use Firestorm, it resets the overclock settings if your PC crashes (which can happen due to overclocking) even with startup enabled. Honestly, kind of annoying, but helps with bad overclocks. Not entirely sure if it's intended, but it does actually help with that.
Lol, when I ran my r9 290 +200mv, 1140mhz in my old room, it ran actually hot but stable, like 95° C :D. Somehow in my new bigger room that translates to only 84°C
you can't open most programs in safe mode, pretty much anything that isnt dependant on stock windows drivers. For example MSi afterburner needs nvidia/amd drivers to work which are not activated in safe mode.
Can edit the profile/settings with notepad so it's not activated. In MSI Afterburners install directory, in folder Profiles there is a cfg file. Edit with Notepad and there is a line "RememberSettings=1", change value to 0.
If you have an SSD and mess up your overclock on Precision XOC (with apply clocks on startup enabled), all you have to do is use the small frame of time before the clocks kick in to use task manager and kill the precision XOC process. I'm pretty sure it's a similar sort of thing on MSI Afterburner, even without open application on startup disabled and the apply clocks on startup enabled, the background process will always run on startup. I messed up a profile ages ago and that's how I fixed it, I instinctively killed the process before it fully kicked in and gave me a black screen.
Like literally I did this mistake in precision x oc with boot on startup enabled and also apply clocks on startup and all I had to do was force quit it before it started and I could use my PC forever. Ofc I still had to remove the profiles from XOC and then open it again
I've never found Overclocking worth it, especially on a GPU. Is it really worth the extra heat, noise and shortening the life span of your hardware for 5 FPS Max. Not for me.
You can do it! GPU OC's are so simple with MSI afterburner. Just slide the core clock right until you start to get weirdness. If you go too far then its ok, just tone it back a little and then you will be fine. I built my first system about a year ago and I watched a lot of Jay's videos. I have an OC on my GPU and my CPU and I have never had any issues with either.
Only thing that failed me was my 8800 GT. But that's probably because of the single slot cooler and 103°C under load. Also they tend do die after 2-3 years in general.

@@kraccmacclul just bios and restart to
factory
@@ethnic8516 bro after watching this video my laptop was fixed
i dont know how to uninstall
it says uninstall/change but then it says do u want to keep the same settings
i click no
and nothing happens
plz help
F8 will not work on 8 and higher.
He said older.
+Thales Sousa he said windows 8 OR older, not older than. By higher I note that 8.1 is included
JAYZ TWO CENTZ U SAVED MY LIFE
This just saved my butt today. Thank you jay!
So, if I have an iGPU with my cpu, can I just remove the GPU instead of the switch gpu method?
Columini yes
TurboCMinusMinus I dun think thats possible bruh
Well, you can overclock integrated.
With limiters.
Yea u can use ur integrated graphics, just remove the bad OC gpu and plug in a video signal onto ur MOBO.
u can always use motherboard onboard gpu vga, hdmi,dvi slot, remove ur graphics card and insert the monitor cable in onboard display slot and after that deletethe profile or uninstall the msi after burner completely.
reinsert ur graphics card and there u go its fixed 😃
But I don't think all motherboards support on board graphics.... right?
Ihaveleaky Spaceboots ya but most of the mobo support onboard display specially low end
+Ihaveleaky Spaceboots most of those are high end mobo's
yea that makes sense.
newer mobo doesn't have onboard graphic. the one that has integrated gpu is the CPU itself
bro you are the love of my life i am permanently in your debt
Yo you literally saved my life I had a heart attack when this happened never again doing this
fps over quality. boy does that one pixel run at 1,000,000 fps on me gtx 980 ti :)
Distant vErvE i have a gtx 980 ti and i get a pink or white screen that crashes my pc when i start any game
Tell me how to liquid cool a radiator.
Remove radiator from case, place radiator in bucket of ice water
atvkid0805 no .. place in a river ... there is waterflow
Put salt in vodka, put it in freezer for 72 hours, put dry ice into a container, put vodka/salt mixture in container, then put the radiator in it. ez temps
shouldn't safety be our number one puhrrity
HendrixCikes puhhrity
Holy shit dude I was about to have a mental breakdown Thank you so much😭
Thx Jay. You caused me to Fubar my video card and then taught me how to fix what I Fubar’d.
or if you have an intel cpu, just remove the gpu and launch with intel hd graphics, assuming you didnt disable in bios
***** I didnt know that, I am back with the i7 4790k back when haswell processors have had integrated graphics.
Skylake K series processors do have integrated graphics. It's mostly just the extreme edition processors that don't (Haswell-E, Broadwell-E)
ThePaisleyProject I mean you still can get into BIOS with a bad oc so it doesn't matter if it's disabled
Ryan good point, i was meaning if you decided to remove the gpu
currentcrazy1 are you referring to the 6950x?
hey, give me your spare 980ti, i will give you my geforce 210 :V
Msi I bought a GeForce 210 thinking it would play subnautica. Hint it didn't
Leif Anderson DAMN how did you get to that tought?
I really don't know, and to make it worse my cpu is a fx 4100.
I owned an FX 4100 and overclocked it to 4.4 GHz on its stock cooler (the one with copper heat pipes). That was a pretty good CPU, it was great with my HD 6670 GDDR5 edition. But I had to sell it, needed money back then. Though I paired the FX with a GT 630. I am still using the 6670 with a Sempron 145 unlocked to Athlon x2 4450e and overclocked to 3.2 GHz (still stock cooler, but this one is that Aluminum one). It still servers me well, since I am a filthy casual gamer (I rarely play any games).
Somebody had a Pentium 4 with Hyperthreading (the 3 GHz variant) paired with the GT 210, they worked pretty well together for a low-end PC.
Love you mate, been following for a long time and I just love how you have made this video haha
These troubleshooting videos are really very useful , thanks
I'm hoping to overclock my gpu now thanks Jay
Or that if you also want to overclock your CPU be sure to put AT LEAST 2.0V core voltage to keep it stable
(don't)
steffeeH I don't get what you're saying, to do it or not? and I can't overclock my cpu anyway
Whos Dead He was being funny - 2V core voltage is ridiculously high
slipknotboy555 he probably fried his gpu by now
could you also use no graphicscard and use onboard graphics?
Yes, except not all motherboard have onboard graphics.
not all cpus have their onboard graphics
I couldn't finish watching this "everybody has a spare 980ti" and I know he was being sarcastic but it hurts when you don't have that kind of Hardware at all like me
Ikr
its a joke
MSI Bugged once for me same way (I was downclocking my card) and it made like last number that was avaible when I pressed reset (so 23124123+MHz) - it was crashing every time. I just removed configs by live linux usb.
Awesome ! Also, downclocking is for real enthusiasts (power consumption / thermal enthusiasts, that is). I would like to do so too with my future build.
MrBiky
with new cards there is almost no need to downclock your GPU - I was doing that because I was thinking it is overheating but that wasn't case ;)
Ace
Well, you are right too, since most of them already have fan 0 RPM mode. But it would be fun to see how much I can underclock it.
I have had to down clock my GPU, due to my motherboard not coping with both my fx 8350 and 980ti. My cpu is stuck to a 4.3ghz oc at 4 cores. While my 980ti is stuck at 80% max power draw. It isn't the psu, for I had issues with a 1kw psu in it. Well, connected to it. The 1kw psu was from a late 2005 apple power mac G5, that I had modded.
Matthew Tremain
I like that case, but I really wouldn't trust that 11 years PSU. Even PSUs today have a warranty of 10 years at most, and that's with 80 plus gold and platinum ratings. I am 90% sure that PSU isn't giving more than 500W by now. Considering an 8350 with OC can reach about 200W consumption and the 980Ti has a power draw of 250W + the rest of your components, I say you should at least try it with a good PSU. Of you have a friend that owns a more recent 1, you should try it (also, I guess you know, but 980Ti requires at least a 600W PSU, so anything beyond that should do).
I had an old 450W PSU that had like 13-14 years and was still giving around 230-ish W and could power an FX 4100 and a Radeon 6670 GDDR5, but once I overclocked the CPU, system was unstable. Changed the PSU and the OC was never unstable again.
Theres also a key combo that lets you not run the MSI Afterburner profile on boot.
how? can you please explain. I got stuck with Overclocked clock settings.. I've Zotac Rtx 2070 mini .. i just tried Overclocking and i did around 1800-1900 something then after that I'm stuck with boost clock of what I've Overclocked. Even after uninstalling all drivers several times and Changing pcie slots as well. Please help
@@tusharanaje32 If you are overclocking set the Power limite tô 100 not 120 you dont need to squeeze 20% If you are already overclocking
What key combo?
Just ran into this problem and have a quick alternative. Once you get into safe mode, instead of uninstalling msi, you can open it up in safe mode and uncheck the "Apply overclock at system start", then close and reboot. You may get an error message, but the setting sticks after you reboot.
Thank you. I needed a little help getting to safe mode. Last time I knew where safe mode was by heart was in the Windows 7 days.
i have the same problem, but it just a bit different. my card still alive, and not crashing, but its give lower fps, slower startup and i cant modify anymore in msi afterburner. can someone help me how to fix that?
Same here. did you find a fix?
@@RainyFN yp , i remove the card, give it a little paste on the gpu and reinstall. After that i go into the device manager, and update the driver. Thanks god gt 630 works again :)
When I enable safe mode, there’s a blue screen that says “please wait” and it just keeps loading forever
Is this still happening?
Same here
Josh Veasy same
If you have a Zotac card and use Firestorm, it resets the overclock settings if your PC crashes (which can happen due to overclocking) even with startup enabled. Honestly, kind of annoying, but helps with bad overclocks. Not entirely sure if it's intended, but it does actually help with that.
I fucking love RUclips....
Was some panic attacks but thanks to this video!!!!!
I had my old GT 610 oced 300mghz stable. Hot. But stable. 82C
I did that a while ago
What games can you play on a 610?? I have one in my spare PC and it's awful at everything.
Goofygiggles I overclocked my GT 610M on laptop by 120Mhz. Temps reaching 88℃
GT 630m here.. hail peasants
Lol, when I ran my r9 290 +200mv, 1140mhz in my old room, it ran actually hot but stable, like 95° C :D.
Somehow in my new bigger room that translates to only 84°C
Can't you just untick "apply at startup" in safe mode? Instead of reinstalling?
woopygoman I buy it for tree fiddy Vietnamese dong
I believe if you did it as soon as you open the .exe the profile would activate and then potentially crash the system anyways
I don't think you can open up 3rd party apps in safe mode.
you can't open most programs in safe mode, pretty much anything that isnt dependant on stock windows drivers. For example MSi afterburner needs nvidia/amd drivers to work which are not activated in safe mode.
Can edit the profile/settings with notepad so it's not activated.
In MSI Afterburners install directory, in folder Profiles there is a cfg file. Edit with Notepad and there is a line "RememberSettings=1", change value to 0.
You are an absolute legend! Keep up the great work
Thank you so much, I almost cried when I overclocked my cpu
If you have an SSD and mess up your overclock on Precision XOC (with apply clocks on startup enabled), all you have to do is use the small frame of time before the clocks kick in to use task manager and kill the precision XOC process. I'm pretty sure it's a similar sort of thing on MSI Afterburner, even without open application on startup disabled and the apply clocks on startup enabled, the background process will always run on startup. I messed up a profile ages ago and that's how I fixed it, I instinctively killed the process before it fully kicked in and gave me a black screen.
Like literally I did this mistake in precision x oc with boot on startup enabled and also apply clocks on startup and all I had to do was force quit it before it started and I could use my PC forever. Ofc I still had to remove the profiles from XOC and then open it again
I've never found Overclocking worth it, especially on a GPU. Is it really worth the extra heat, noise and shortening the life span of your hardware for 5 FPS Max. Not for me.
Richard Dale If you're getting 10 to 30FPS then overclocking is a must.
Well on low end cards every fps matter
IDC. I GET AROUND 720 FPS IN MINECRAFT. LOL
+ 3c will short life of gpu for like 1 day...
Well...i get about 10 to 13 fps extra on my gtx 745, so for mi it is worth it till the new en cards are being released for a massive upgrade 🍻🍻
I dont have enough braincells to understand this sadly..
imma send this to everyone who tells me overclocking your gpu is bad xD
Im still scared that Im gonna kill it...anyone else?
You can do it! GPU OC's are so simple with MSI afterburner. Just slide the core clock right until you start to get weirdness. If you go too far then its ok, just tone it back a little and then you will be fine. I built my first system about a year ago and I watched a lot of Jay's videos. I have an OC on my GPU and my CPU and I have never had any issues with either.
The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself. Franklin D Roosevelt.
Only thing that failed me was my 8800 GT.
But that's probably because of the single slot cooler and 103°C under load. Also they tend do die after 2-3 years in general.
Wow thx guys for the encouragement, I have a 1050 ti so im gonna try.
Samster Birdies it wont, voltages increase heat, frequency doesnt do anything 👍🏻
"its harder to break your stuff than it really is"... bruh my motherboard fried with out me even touching my computer...
What motherboard do u have btw?
@@sergiusko4327 msi x570 tomohawk
This video just stopped a cardiac arrest
What if I accidentally crank up both the core clock and memory clock to max?
When I restart I get a different screen and I have tried everything.help
Did you find a solution?
Safe reboot
Did for me
And then I uninstalled msi afterburner
