Overclocking
Testing notes & interpretation- Overclocking results listed in this section are achieved with the default fan, power, and voltage settings as defined in the VGA BIOS. We choose this approach as it is the most realistic scenario for most users.
- Each GPU, including each GPU of the same make and model, will overclock slightly differently based on random production variances.
- The data in this table shows comparable overclocks using identical conditions from previous TechPowerUp reviews.
- The Average GPU clock frequency reported in the table is an actual measurement of the clock speeds during 3DMark Time Spy Extreme GT1. Making a "maximum overclock" comparison just based on the "rated" clocks in GPU-Z inaccurate—actual frequencies are what matters.
Using these clock frequencies, we ran a quick test of 3DMark Time Spy GT1 to evaluate the gains from overclocking.
