Short GPU speed boost idea / Afterburner
Short GPU speed boost idea / Afterburner
100Mhz offset beyond the maximum boost level currently achieved. That means, indeed, back to factory settings.
Next question: I am trying to overclock my MSI RTX 2080 Duke OC, which currently runs at a factory setting of 1845Mhz. Using the OC scanner will generate a curve with an increase of +104Mhz, leading to an in-game clock of 1965Mhz (GPU-Z displays a boost of 1910Mhz for that setting). When I manually adjust it to +115Mhz, the in-game clocks fluctuate between 1980 and 1995Mhz (GPU-Z records a boost of 1960Ghz under this manual setting). I’m having trouble understanding why there’s a significant difference in the boost clock readings between auto overclocking on the curve and manual overclocking, particularly with the GPU-Z data.
I understand that Nvidia cards usually have fixed values, but actual clock speeds can vary slightly due to measurement differences. For example, a card with 180x11Mhz might be recorded as 180x10.996Mhz, and software measurements can introduce minor adjustments. Similarly, CPU sampling rates often fall within acceptable ranges, leading to small discrepancies such as a 15Mhz difference on a 5GHz processor (50x99.7Mhz).
