Overclocking the GPU
Overclocking the GPU
I own a Zotac Geforce GT 730 4GB DDR3 Zone Edition GPU.
As someone who plays moderately to heavily, it performs adequately.
My usual settings are 1600x900 resolution with medium graphics, sometimes high.
I've been attempting to overclock the GPU for several days, but I'm not seeing the expected improvement. On Heaven, my FPS remains low even though the temperature is reaching 68°C.
Could you offer any advice on how to proceed now?
Motherboard: Asus B85M-G. The user manual confirms overclocking is supported.
And no... I don’t have any more funds to purchase a new GPU.
I was looking for your GPU online and think it might not be able to overclock. If you have the purchase link, it would be useful. If you're certain it's possible, follow these steps: use MSI afterburner to overclock the GPU—it’s straightforward and allows adjusting fan speed and other settings. In MSI afterburner, both core clock and memory clock will show at +0, indicating no increase. You can see the maximum boost limits on the card’s page; if you know them, respect those limits or the game may crash or the change won’t matter.

In MSI afterburner, both core clock and memory clock will show at +0, indicating no increase. You might see a higher limit in the product page, but exceeding it could cause crashes or fail the overclock. Always respect those limits to avoid issues.

If you're certain it's possible, try this: use MSI afterburner to boost the GPU, adjust fan speed and other settings. In the program, core and memory clocks will both show +0, meaning no increase. You can push them up to +1000 for each, but that’s likely not effective. On the product page, you should see the maximum clock boost allowed. If you know that limit, respect it or the game may crash or the change won’t work. I finally got it right—my GPU stopped working at +150 (CC and MC). Then I adjusted it to +110 for CC and +100 for MC.
