I own a precision XOC from EVGA paired with an EVGA GTX 1080 TI FTW3. The standard settings are 1569 clock and boost at 1683, though I suspect the optimal range is around 1873 MHz. When boosting to 2GHz (2050MHz), FPS drops slightly to 55-56, suggesting 1873 might be more stable. Voltage stands at 1062 and memory clock at 5508. I’m relatively new to this setup, so I’m curious about the ideal voltage and MHz combination for peak performance.
Hi shen.matt92,
the minimum frame rate doesn't indicate much beyond it being an intense scene. You need to focus on average FPS. First, turn off the EZ OC in BIOS—it can overvolt the CPU, making it hotter than necessary for a certain frequency. Next, how did you manage to overclock the GPU? Finally, what is your power supply?

First, turn off the EZ OC in bios—it really boosts the voltage, making your CPU hotter than necessary for that frequency.
Next, how did you manage to overclock the GPU?
And what is your power supply?

I overclocked the GPU with precision XOC from EVGA, similar to MSI afterburner. I know afterburner works well, but since I'm using an EVGA card, I preferred EVGA software.
My PSU is the EVGA 850 G3. It's interesting about EZ OC. Should I try overclocking it the traditional way? I've never done it before, and because each BIOS behaves differently, it might be best to get someone to pay close attention online or have an expert visit.
Also, if you have any Intels fine tuning utility software, let me know—I'd be happy to share photos of all the BIOS pages and would gladly guide you through it!
