    Intermittent freezing which only lasts 1-2 seconds, while ONLY running MSI Afterburner. Just recently started doing this after installing a 2nd 1070FE, SLI bridge isnt connected yet as it's being delivered by amazon tomorrow. It's never done this before. I usually keep my 1070 overclocked at 2-2.1ghz +400Mhz on the ram. And would love to have them both overclocked to at least 2000.

    Checked GPU usage and it's spiking down to 0 during this event. Any help is appreciated.

    All of them are off. I've tried a few things before coming to the forums. I also downloaded EVGA Precision loaded it up and it does the same thing. [​IMG]

    Recent nvidia drivers release notes state "Using power monitoring in GPU monitor tools causes micro stutter.". You have power monitoring enabled in your screenshot. Try turning it off.

    Would I disable power monitoring in the BIOS? I connected a solo SLI bridge and it magically fixed the problem, running smooth and able to OC cards to 2ghz. Thank you.

    You should be using a HB SLI bridge

    Yes, I bought one. It was cheap on amazon. http://a.co/d/9R5AiSY
    Just using the solo flexible bridge I had, connected it after everything started skipping. :\ Thank you Extra, that probably did fix it! It was unclicked as I checked just now.

    Turn off power monitoring for the gpu in MSI Afterburner and it should clear up. This has been a known issue for the past few drivers from Nvidia. I think they even released a driver that was suppose to fix it a little while back but it didn't carry over to the new branch yet, or they thought they did an it was still present, I don't remember which tbh.
