i cant believe that 12,5mhz gives a 300 points boost??
i think gpuboost 3.0 is fuzked
so you have 1 run at 70° you boost to 2000mhz and other with 75° and you go lower

My GPU temp isn't much higher than 60 degrees C on load in OC mode.

I have contacted nvidia about this as well.

kingpin himself told about the 980ti classified with gpu boost 2.0 that if you are serios about oc like hwbot(assuming you go for moarr points) that you should keep it under 50° for not throttling but you will not see this in afterburner because fluctuations are to quick for software.

and i am not talking bout temp target set higher-doesn't matter

overclocking is going to be more+more restricted

Well I'm sure it's not throttling at 60 degrees , normally the fans just start spinning at that temperature,
I have the fans spinning all the time.

Ended up installing the latest driver now because I wanted to play a game and it wouldn't startup since I have the system restored.
I used DDU, that might have messed with the system restore points somehow.

Too bad for my benchmark scores in OC mode with the MSI Gaming App.
Not sure yet how to OC manually with afterburner but I might give it a try sometime.

Edit: First GTX1070 driver with MSI Gaming App OC mode:

Latest driver with MSI Gaming App OC mode:
http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/13601011?

It's strange, it had a peak at 2012MHz but it went down to 1999.5MHz most of the time which gave me a lower result in the end.

Question, how do I overclock with afterburner 4.3.0 beta 4?

My current core clock is at 215MHz idle, I want it to set to 2012MHz max boost.
Do I just move the slider from 215MHz to 2012MHz and apply?
So the max boost will be 2012MHz?

With memory clock the same?
It idles at 405MHz, I want it to run at 2025, do I just move the slider to 2025MHz and apply?

Will the core clock stay at 2012MHz boost and the vram stay at 2025MHz once applied, I mean do they stay at boost speed?

 

[P4-630]

Ok, so I'm back to the 368.39 first gtx1070 driver.
Why?

• With the latest driver I got image tearing/sloppy while scrolling a webpage in chrome, hardware acceleration was set to off, but I had to set it ON with any newer driver.
• MSI Gaming App OC mode, when benchmarking with a newer driver installed the GPU did not maintain the max boost speed of 2012MHz, resulting in lower scores.
• While playing games with newer driver installed the core clock stayed almost at highest boost clock all the time resulting in higher GPU temperatures, 10C+ higher GPU temp while gaming.

Now when I play a game with the 368.39 driver,
the boost core clock adjusts properly and runs only higher clocks when needed,
resulting in lower GPU temps overall.

No they do not. The value set in afterbutner applies an offset to the the boost clocks. In other words, the value you set in AB= Target boost clock (2012 mhz in your case) - the max boost clock you currently observe in games.
Personally I could only achieve +75 mhz on the core (using the official OC bios from MSI) and +500 mhz on memory. Playing the witcher 3 (blood & wine), I hardly see any performance gain, so it is not worth it IMO. In benchmarks, the OC gave me 3 more frames in Ashes of singularity and 301 extra points in fire strike. Most of the 1080s are already near their limits, which depending on your point of view, can be a good or a bad thing. The story may be different with the 1070. Try OCing and tell us. Good luck.
P.S. There is also an advanced OCing method in AB, accessed by pressing control+F. There is a guide for it on guru3d.com, although its english seems rough with many errors, for me at least. I tried the advanced method and did not yield any better OC! I am still limited with a maximum 1.09 v on the core, maybe I am missing something.

For a while the overclock was not breaking 40c, though it is a little warm here at the moment. If I take the somewhat restrictive front panel off the case, and let the triple 140mm fans breathe more, it cuts three to four degrees. I guess I could also put the CPU under water and that would lower the ambient some.

No science to this overclock if any one is wondering, I simply made a complete guess as to what seemed a reasonable increase and gave it a shot. I suspect the memory can go higher, but in my experience memory overclocks do very little for real world performance.

So far at 1440p I haven't had an issue with framerates. I may just run this at stock clocks. 1911 stock boost seems good enough.

I don't know which Firestrike is the common test, so ask if you want one done.
I did the new Time Spy? and that was pretty cool.

Holy shit, congrats on winning silicon lottery!

Edit: I see many FE cards hitting 2100 and more, seems like Nvidia did a great job binning the chips.

Most people use the regular Fire Strike 1.1 test I think.
If you want you could do the extreme as well, but thats up to you
Thanks for sharing the results!

Didn't they say that they weren't binning them, unless they were so poor they could only be used as 1070s?

It's just that a lot of FE cards seem to get higher clock speeds than most AIB cards.
Maybe i should just get my tinfoil hat off.

It would make sense.. happy to believe it to.

Welcome to the club @AthlonX2 !
Hope you have gotten a good price for your barely used RX480.

I actually got full price for it 240 shipped!! surprised me.

Nice was one of the GTX 1070's I was looking at but bcs of stock I went with the more expensive MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X that requires a 6+8pin instead of this nice Gigabyte GTX 1070 G1 that only requires a single 8pin.

 

[newconroer]

Sadly, despite my new setup, I've spent most of my time playing on the EQ emulator, which runs the card at 530mhz core, and 300 something memory.. the temperature never changes from idle.
By the time I get to really using the LCS, it will be winter and not needed.

 

[ViperXTR]

hmm

 

[P4-630]

hmm

Hmm, my card seems to be ok, no artifacting or errors seen yet...

 

[P4-630]

Not impressed with my 3d mark firestrike score with this driver.
I can't seem to get the 13915 anymore, not even when I use the first GTX1070 driver anymore, the core speed does not stay at 2012MHz anymore with MSI Gaming App OC mode, just one peak and then stays at 1999.5MHz. Oh well, it's just benchmarking.... Gaming works fine
