Hi there,
I own an Aorus GTX 1060 with 6gb RAM and have been trying to reach its sweetspot for overclocking. My power limit is set at +111, temperature at +92, and voltage at 100%. I’ve managed to keep it stable at a core clock of +75.

However, when adjusting the memory clock, every time I change it and run the stability test with Heaven Benchmark, the memory clock remains fixed at 4513MHz. This continues until I reach +200, after which the Heaven info drops to 810MHz and the core clock jumps to 1910MHz from 2075. When I go beyond +600, it returns to 3451MHz and the core clock settles back to 2075, but still doesn’t shift noticeably with higher values.

I’m not sure what’s going on, could someone clarify this for me?
Thanks!!

Check that you have the newest drivers installed, then verify your graphics card's latest BIOS settings. The overclocking tool available for all Gigabyte cards can assist with this.

Ensure you have the most recent drivers installed, then verify that your graphics card's BIOS is also up to date. The overclocking tool used by all Gigabyte cards supports this process.

I was in another discussion about problems, and it seems they were specific to Unigine Heaven.

Consider using another benchmark, as I was in a different thread with problems that seemed limited to Unigine Heaven. I also tested OCCT and GPU-Z, both displaying identical results.
Edit: Just rechecked—GPU-Z still shows the overclock, but it's the only one among the ones I've tried (Afterburner, heaven, OCCT, Aorus Engine). Also, when I reach 810MHz in monitoring, my performance drops significantly, suggesting GPU-Z might be misreading the data.
