Sup guys.I'm having trouble finding a straight answer to this (probably retarded) question. My friend believes he is having issues caused by a bad graphics card. He wants to take mine (works fine) and stick it in his rig to see if that clears up the problem.
Question is: if I remove my card, put it in his rig, then return it to mine, will my OC settings be preserved?
tl;dr are GPU OC settings stored on the card or in the PC software (MSI Link)?

Why not just google it?

That's the first thing I did, did you not read the part where I said I'm having trouble finding a straight answer?

To answer you, no, its software based

Thanks senpai.

It's not that I don't think the answer is out there, it's just that Google's algorithm is so fucked up that you can't get ANY relevant results for the question you're asking.

don't listen to this retard
Your settings are stored on the GPU's memory. If you put it in his machine it won't run on yours again until you do a clean install of all the drivers.

Make sure your friend's PC is clean of viruses, you don't want malware to infect your card's memory and cause it to malfunction

How can I scan my card's RAM for viruses before I put it back in my rig? It doesn't pop up as a scannable drive in my antivirus software.
So much bullshit ITT. I really hope you're all trolling.

Try installing gentoo

Just don't do anything to your PC while the card is not on it.

>he doesn't know about GPU malware
There's a virus out there that literally uses your card to run games on computers thousands of miles away
