Overclocking
Overclocking is held back by the default power limit. Once set to +15%, the card clocked much better and reached a new record in GPU OC potential by quite a big margin.
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.
Using these clock frequencies, we ran a quick test of Unigine Heaven to evaluate the gains from overclocking.
Actual 3D performance gained from overclocking is 6.1%.
