Temperatures & Clock Profiles »Overclocking
The overclocking results listed in this section were achieved with the default fan and voltage settings as defined in the VGA BIOS. Please note that every single sample overclocks differently which is why our results here can only serve as a guideline for what you can expect from your card.
Maximum overclock is 1100 MHz GPU clock (7% overclocking) and 1570 MHz memory (26% overclock).
Overclocked Performance
Using these clock frequencies, we ran a quick test of Battlefield 3 to evaluate the gains from overclocking.
Actual 3D performance gained from overclocking is 9.9%.
