Was I ripped off?
Was I ripped off?
Hi all. Here's the situation.
1. I asked for my GPU to be overclocked by some pc builders
2. GPU = EVGA 1070 Superclocked (1594 base, boost 1784 MHz)
3. I ran FurMark and Afterburner as I was doing the Furmark benchmark and got a gpu clock of 1683 Mhz, which is less than 1784.
4. I also expect that the clock should have been even higher than 1784 of course since I paid them to overclock it additionally, right? So it should have read something even higher than 1784. 1900 or something, depending on what they did.
5. Did I pay for an overclock and NOT get one here? It seems like im still running the standard EVGA SC without an additional overclock.
I could be totally wrong.
Thank you in advance for helping me out.
I suggest using a program like evga precision to monitor clock speeds or hw info/monitor, as the clock rate will be different due to gpu boost 3.0.
If you see a clock of 1683 it probrably means that you got about a 90mhz overclock from the stock clock. This is pretty decent as thats what my evga 1070 sc overclocks to.
With a base clock like that you should see boost speeds into the 2000- 2050mhz range. Check what your memory speed is at too.
I recommend using a tool such as evga precision to track clock speeds or hardware information, since the clock rate may vary because of GPU Boost 3.0. A clock reading of 1683 likely indicates a 90mhz overclock from the original speed. With that kind of base clock, boost speeds should reach between 2000 and 2050mhz. Also check your memory speed. Thank you for your response.
