ASUS Gpu Tweak 2 OC help
I own an Asus 1060 with 6gb Turbo and am attempting to achieve a stable overclock using GPU tweak 2. None of the tutorials I found were based on GPU tweak 2, which means the setup and values vary. Could anyone assist me?
I've never used that tool, but there must be one: core voltage (adds mVs), max power limit (sets the allowed drawing power for your card), core clock, vram clock, fan speed slider, and temperatures monitoring.
You should first reach the maximum power limit, then attempt to increase the core clock by 10 MHz using GPU benchmark tools—like Unigine Heaven, which lets you run loops—and check for any visual artifacts on your screen. If those don’t appear, try adjusting the core speed again and retest. When unusual pixels show up or crashes occur, raise the core voltage by 5–10 mVs and see if the issue recurs (usually I cap at 15 mVs). If not, keep fine-tuning the speed increase. Once a stable setting is found, repeat the process for the vram clock. Usually I boost the fan speed to 85% during overclocking to ensure temperatures stay safe.
By the way, if you share a screenshot of your interface, I can offer more detailed advice.
I got the general concept. This config helped me keep things steady using unigine heaven and valley.
The valley runs at 1950 core clock, but the Heaven crashes later. It doesn’t matter if RAM or clock speeds are a bit higher—it still crashes. I think the problem might be with voltage? My PSU might not provide enough power, or the card just can’t be safely overclocked past 1940.
I ran the tests several times and then played Bf1 for about an hour and a half without any issues. After that, I increased the fan curve past 60 degrees so it runs louder but that’s not important to me.
Right now I’m curious why it stops stabilizing at 1940 and if there’s a way to push it further safely.
