I used to own a Suprim 4090 that i overclocked for +185 on the core and +1350 on the memory for a almost 10% increase in fps performance.
I never used voltage curve or all those things. always resulted in too unstable tickering. never had any luck with OC scanners either. And i never had succes with adding voltage.

I basically just put a target play games do 3dmark and see if it crash or not.
Results for the 3dmark stress test timespy extreme: (have the .3dmark-result files if curious)

250 core 99.2 frame stability
250 core 2000 mem 99.5.
250 core 3000 mem 98.4

However i got one freeze on 3dmark with a normal 3dmarkrun when i did 250 core and 3000 mem, but itcompleted the 20 loop stress run. Confused. I think it also may have crashed in VR earlier today at +250 core only... or it could have been driver issue hard to say.
But had the NVDLLK error in window that it is missing or corrupted. which can indicate unstable OC or unstable driver.

Timespy Extreme Scores
19134 default card
19525 250 core
19703 250 core /2000 mem
19821 250 core /3000 mem

I haven't touched anything on the fan side(if you can recommend a copy paste fan curve that is superiour to stock, please let me know though idk if it matters for overclock the card is cool regardless...), and nothing on the voltage side. Btw i see now voltage is done in%? not in flat static mv? isn't 10% alot more then 10 mv?

What is a good way to isolate now wether what is stable or not? since it all passes the 20 stress test 3dmark?

EDIT:
Noticed that God of War crashed on main menu creating shaders when using just +250 on the core. Dropped it to 235. 220 still crash, each time a little bit later. Then I tried 205 and the game seems to play fine for the short time i played atleast. So i guess the 250 core wasnt stable at all. Hopefully this 205 is now.
