Overclocking conflict
I reinstalled my old RX 570 graphics card in a rig for my brother, and wanted to give him a free speed boost as an extra present. While I can overclock the memory to 1,750 MHz with MSI Afterburner, if I install AMD’s Adrenaline on to the system, it’ll crash—black screen, followed by the PC freezing. However, if I raise the voltage controller memory setting in Adrenaline before applying the change in Afterburner, it works okay. Why is it doing this? No voltage settings are required when it’s just MSI Afterburner installed.

This sounds like a classic software conflict where one application (Adrenaline) overwrites the changes of another (Afterburner), resulting in the problems you’ve experienced. Ultimately, Adrenaline is optimized for AMD cards, so there’s no reason to use Afterburner—instead, remove it and overclock using Adrenaline to see if
