does the high memory clock cause hardware problems?OC it as much as it's stable. Run some benchmarks and when it's unstable, lower the clocks a bit.
Here's mine for reference.

Nope, the card is just unstable if you overclock it too much.does the high memory clock cause hardware problems?

Yeaaah... and like I do, I have still a 60Hz monitor and I play with vsync on, the extra performance is only to ensure the stable 60fps frame rate.This is correct.
I set up OC profiles for my 2070 Super Founders Edition based on this guide:
![]()
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER FE Overclocking
We take the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Founders Edition and overclock it to the max so that we can compare retail custom video cards overclocking.www.thefpsreview.com
but the system was unstable with the values used by TheFPSReview while running Unigine Heaven 4.0.
So I backed off some of the OC values and finally arrived at a profile that worked with Heaven.
When I ran Shadow of the Tomb Raider, that OC profile caused graphics artifacts. So I painstakingly created two more profiles with lower OC values. In the end, the profile that worked with SoTR was only a 4% overclock. Not worth the time/trouble.
If a game runs at 60 fps at the factory settings, a 4% OC is 62.4 fps. Can you tell a 2.4 fps difference? I can't. Admittedly my eyes are old and tired.

Yep, the Black version.Is your card an Gaming OC card? we have similar clocks expect my memory clock is much much higher.

I'd love to get a block for this, even though I'll keep my CPU on airI have the white version.... Or at least i did have till i put an Accelero Xtreme IV on it.

Yup. Well, my next monitor will be a 4K60 one.I don't concern myself with this.
My primary gaming display is the LG C1 OLED television (4K, 120 Hz, Nvidia G-Sync certified). I have another rarely-used gaming computer which outputs to a 2K/1440p, 165 Hz, FreeSync Premium certified) display.
I picked 60 Hz as a random example but in most cases my gaming builds run beyond that.

I'm too poor to get a high refresh monitor, and actually I don't game that much - I'd love just to get a higher resolution for basic usage.I don't really see the appeal of gaming on a 4K/60 Hz PC monitor when there are vastly superior OLED televisions running at 4K/120 Hz.
However, 4K/60 Hz is great for productivity work. I have an LG 27UL850-W for my daily driver computers (one Mac and one Windows PC). Even the 1440p monitor is a terrible experience for something like web surfing.

Exactly! this is why OC is adding more value to the consumers purchasing power if there a gamer.OC it as much as it's stable. Run some benchmarks and when it's unstable, lower the clocks a bit.

Yeah... and usually cards have a lot of headroom especially with VRAM overclockingExactly! this is why OC is adding more value to the consumers purchasing power.
Overall, we pay a lot of money (relatively speaking) for shiny new hardware, so wring every bit of performance out of it!
Yes, I suppose it varies from card to card but some factory OC cards can be OC even further & still be stable in AAA modern games.Yeah... and usually cards have a lot of headroom especially with VRAM overclocking![]()

Yeah... though I could try push this farther, I've just kept the GPU clocks that it boosts to around 2GHz when gaming.Yes, I suppose it varies from card to card but some factory OC cards can be OC even further & still be stable in AAA modern games.
