Adjusting the voltage on my GTX 1050 Ti (troubleshooting)
Adjusting the voltage on my GTX 1050 Ti (troubleshooting)
My Card:
https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/GeForc...NG-4G.html
Stock:
- GPU Clock: 1392 MHz
- Memory Clock: 3503 MHz
- Voltage: 1050 mV
- Temperatures: 58 - 60 C
Overclocked:
- GPU Clock: 1946 MHz
- Memory Clock: 4503 MHz
- Voltage: 1125 mV
- Temperatures: 61 - 63 C
As you can see, I increased the voltage by about 75 mV. Now my concern is whether this is safe. Some people have a maximum limit around +85 mV, while others (more cautious) suggest around +15 mV. I asked a few friends if adding 75 mV would be okay. They said it should be fine as long as the temperatures stay between 60 - 70 C. It seems acceptable, but I’m still unsure. If there’s an expert here, it would be helpful to get some advice.
(Notice: I upgrade my card every 2-4 years.)
I've experienced success with overclocking my RX 470 using GPU Tweak II. The main advantage is the automatic adjustment of voltage based on the GPU clock speed. Currently, I'm running at 1315MHz (your card performs better than mine, lol) and at 1193mV. Lowering it to 1300Mhz brings it down to 1181mV naturally. What tools are you using for overclocking? How are your temperatures? Have you performed stress tests on your GPU?
Running MSI Afterburner during the game. 61 to 63 C in-game, 34 to 50 C when the PC is idle. Yes, I tested the card and it stayed stable consistently! (Heaven Benchmark 4.0). I improved my FPS by about 8 to 15 points in Heaven Benchmark.
