the impact of adding 30 mhz on a gpu is minimal
i was thinking about whether the effort to push that extra 30mhz on my overclock is actually worthwhile. i have my gpu core clock at 2038mhz on my 1070ti, but once it reaches 60 degrees it drops to 2025mhz and then to 2012mhz when it hits 65-66 degrees. it's unclear if this is worth the trouble with noisy fans and trying to adjust the fan curve—it hasn't really helped cool things down enough. water cooling might keep it steady at 2038mhz, but i'm still new to all this overclocking stuff and just want to understand better. thanks in advance.

I was curious about whether the extra effort to push that 30mhz overclock on my overclock is actually beneficial. My GPU core clock is currently at 2038mhz on a 1070ti, but it drops to 2025mhz once it reaches 60 degrees and further to 2012mhz at 65-66 degrees. Is the cost of loud fans and trying to adjust the fan curve worth it? It seems like the GPU boost will reduce performance when things get hotter anyway. Higher speeds mean hitting power limits faster, which might not be ideal. I'm still getting the hang of all this overclocking stuff, thanks in advance.
I was curious about whether the effort to push that extra 30mhz on my overclock really makes sense. On my 1070ti, I’ve got the GPU core clock at 2038mhz, but it drops to 2025mhz once it reaches 60 degrees and further to 2012mhz when it hits 65-66 degrees. Is it really worth dealing with loud fans and trying to adjust the fan curve, which hasn’t helped much in cooling it down? Would water cooling be a better option to keep it steady at 2038mhz? I’m new to all this overclocking stuff and still trying to understand it. Thanks in advance.

Is it really worth dealing with the noise from the fans and trying to adjust the fan curve? It hasn't helped much in cooling it down enough. I'm also not sure if water cooling would keep it steady at 2038mhz. Since I'm new to this, I'm still trying to understand everything. Thanks for your advice.
it could even be your card that's causing the problem. with my 1070 if I attempt overclocking above 50+ memory and around 20+ boost clock i encounter memory errors and reset my OC. i'm still relatively new to this so i'm trying to understand everything :/ i've got +150 on my core clock but when playing crysis 3 it hits the 2038mhz and behaves as described, while in heaven benchmark it's at 2050mhz on heaven itself and on msi afterburner too. i don't know why it fluctuates like that—maybe i should try a few more games to see what happens. thanks for the post too.
I was curious about whether pushing that extra 30mhz on my overclock really makes a difference, especially since I already have my GPU core clock at 2038mhz on my 1070ti. It drops to 2025mhz around 60 degrees and then further to 2012mhz near 65-66 degrees. Is it worth the effort with noisy fans and trying to adjust the fan curve? It hasn’t really helped cool things down enough. Using water cooling might keep it steady at 2038mhz. I’m still new to this overclocking stuff, so I’m just trying to understand better. Thanks for your advice.
