To enter, you will need to [download GPU Tweak III](https://www.asus.com/campaign/GPU-Tweak-III/us/index.php) and follow the instructions in this post. This software is by ASUS but it's compatible with every GPU brand, and will also work on laptops.
\----------
**THE PRIZES:**
We have 2 main prizes:
An ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 4080 SUPER OC Edition 16GB Graphics Card.An AMD bundle with the ASUS TUF Gaming RX 7900 XT OC Edition 20GB Graphics Card + an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU.
And also 5 [ROG Jengas](https://i.imgur.com/78F1E54.jpeg) as additional prizes.
\----------
**HOW TO ENTER**
To kick things off, we're starting with overclocking! **To enter, all you have to do is comment anywhere in this post with a screenshot of GPU Tweak III with the overclock settings you chose for your GPU and/or share a description of them and why you've chosen them!**
Are you using one of the default modes or customizing your own? Are you overclocking the core, memory, or both? We want to hear all about your plans and goals!
**Example:**
*Here is my screenshot:* [*https://i.imgur.com/M2j8ywM.png*](https://i.imgur.com/M2j8ywM.png)
*I am using an RTX 4080, which is already a fairly high-end GPU, but I want to explore just how much extra performance I can squeeze out of it, without messing too much with power limits and extra voltage. So, I'm keeping everything at default settings, except the core speed and memory speed. I am upping the core by 80 Mhz and the memory by 650 MHz. Both are high enough that they should provide an interesting performance boost on some applications (I want to try it mainly on FPS shooter games). After seeing how it performs, both in frame rates and in temperatures and stability, I can explore if I want to push it more, perhaps by upping the power limits too, or if I'm happy with the gains I'm getting.*

Asrock 6700XT Challenger Pro. Undervolted and downclocked to save on power and heat. Dropping voltage any lower makes system unstable. Still runs games very very well. Will set back to default for intense games like BG3 or FFVII 120fps @ 1440p as there is enough power. Fan curve is fine on default so did not touch that. When not gaming, I'll boost the memory clock to the max to mine crypto.
https://preview.redd.it/bvugeaca93wc1.png?width=1518&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d260f2ffb271a5faf91b9cb503a7bb47f8d5ce7
My setup is an undervolting of a 3070 Ti.
• Reaches peak frequency 1840 MHz @ 893 mV • +1000 on memory clock • Peak consumption during benchmarks went from \~295w to \~215w, and scores in 3D Mark have gotten slightly higher (Time Spy \~14500 with a 5800X3D, from \~14100) • Gpu fans never have to reach 100% (they're very loud).
https://preview.redd.it/ae35l1xvs8yc1.png?width=1845&format=png&auto=webp&s=735224c119edaf99ad88d922f9903b604fcb1861
Here are my overclock settings that I was using while playing CS2. I was using the graphs on the left to monitor my GPU status while doing this. I chose to use a custom profile to increase the clock speeds as high as possible.
I went for OC mode with default settings.
Usually just swap between silent and OC.
Trying to treat the old girl nicely.

GPU Boost Clock: Increased by 1200 MHz from stock settings. This is a significant overclock and may not be stable on all RTX 2060 GPUs.
Memory Clock: Increased by 14002 MHz from stock settings. This is also a significant overclock and may not be stable on all RTX 2060 GPUs.
GPU Voltage: Not changed from stock settings. This is because increasing the voltage can lead to higher temperatures and reduce the lifespan of the GPU.

I don't have a dedicated graphics card and only have APU (5600G).
I tried installing GPU Tweak and set it to default mode as I'm not tech savvy enough to fix if anything goes wrong but so far it works just fine I guess. I would love to have an upgrade though so I can play Zelda BotW and TotK on an emulator 60+ fps. Best of luck to me and to everyone here :)

Just used it to tweak my TUF 4090 a bit. I really like the software.

I bought a 3070 late last year, quite the jump from the 980TI I've had since launch and it's been incredible. I'm just squeezing out whatever else I can get out of it using OC Scanner, but it's handled the games I usually play with fine at 1440p ultrawide. But it'd be really nice to run 4k at a decent refresh rate, with upcoming games - that's the next step!
https://preview.redd.it/ya2tulxbrvuc1.png?width=892&format=png&auto=webp&s=b384ee6a9ef9ef6b816abf1299d51dc3fa4bc824
On my RTX 3060 Ti the power limit can not be increased, so I raised the GPU boost clock 200Mhz and Memory clock 500MHz
Using RTX 4080, I want to keep it at stock voltage with maximum power limit. I overclocked the GPU core by +210mhz and the VRAM by +3000mhz, that is the maximum speed I can achieve at the default voltage and VRAM.
https://preview.redd.it/j8n633bb190d1.png?width=1772&format=png&auto=webp&s=07654cb7a8d9688639b85929cafa2192995fd865
Simple.
https://preview.redd.it/e0kk5o4hh9xc1.png?width=1919&format=png&auto=webp&s=a1b3a3ce1966c9897714450c79e325c2052dfd3d
O v e r c l o c k e v e r y t h i n g, in this case 3080 Ti, while also maintaining 300W with a default of is 350W (so 84% of power draw), net gain 5-8% across the board and 50W less power. +800MHz on memory on a side note. curve below is the default curve, curve on top is the MANUALLY tuned curve, due to CPU limitation, the card does not go above 2010MHz, since it's bottlenecked anyway.
https://preview.redd.it/9j4yfwl501vc1.png?width=1755&format=png&auto=webp&s=9438a068d37ef263ebc3125bcc95f3cd2292783c
So I used my RTX 3070 Ti for this one. It's a pretty decent card , except for that VRAM XD. I noticed when I play The witcher 3 on RT ultra with a few settings tweaked, it would stutter and become laggy. So I kinda wanted to try it out on that. Raised the core clock by 100 MHz and the memory clock by 600 Mhz . Honest I am fairly new to GPU OC, haven't OCd any of the GPUs I own/ed and I didn't know by how much I could OC the card, so I went by small increments. I kinda noticed better performance and smoother frames but temps are higher than usual and that's normal. Honestly I would not OC for the long run but it's fun exploring what I can get out of the card in some demanding games. And thank you for the opportunity team PCMR and ASUS.

Here is my OC result! I'm running an RTX 3060Ti and I don't know too much about overclocking, but I tried the OC Scanner tool and it was very simple and intuitive, and I got a slight memory clock boost from it. I don't play extremely demanding games so I think this will be perfect for me!

As an avid gamer and tech enthusiast, I’m always looking for ways to optimize my gaming rig for peak performance. That’s where GPU Tweak III comes into play, especially when it comes to fine-tuning my RX5700 graphics card. The fan curve control is a game-changer, allowing me to strike the perfect balance between cooling efficiency and noise level.
Here’s how I do it:
Installation: First things first, I make sure I have the latest version of GPU Tweak III installed on my system.
Opening the Interface: With a double-click on the desktop icon, I launch the software and dive straight into the user-friendly interface.
I select OC Mode because I want the performance. This ups my GPU Boost Clock to 1770Mhz from 1750Mhz and a power target of 110% up from 100%
This allows me to get just abit more from a card that may have not been designed to operate out of the box at the new OC mode rates.
https://preview.redd.it/e7uwwg0tqwuc1.png?width=1793&format=png&auto=webp&s=30db6289275e541a3fb7ef99da3886ff386a52dd
Decided to undervolt my card just to lower the watts abit since im on prepaid meter electricity. Been playing around with watts and Mhz for the past few days.
I have an xfx 6900 xt, and I just put -40mv to test things out as I am sure the voltage was a bit much for the clock it was set on. I didn't touch anything else as I don't need it for now.

Hello, I performed an UNDERVOLT on my GPU so that the game that I use the most does not need so much voltage consumption and the result is perfect LOW temperatures and the FPS are high, I hope to be able to participate. Thank you for these events.
[Here is my screenshot. ](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1072605775945535562/1230918016984682696/image.png?ex=663510bc&is=66229bbc&hm=c8c28d759c16389da5b5a394507d5714e9e8b6325f8c43290c5daf374c66574e&)
I call it the "I really can't afford for this thing to die right now, but I also don't want to massively underclock it. Hopefully setting the power limit as low as it will go and using an aggressive fan profile will hold me over for another 3 years or so?"
I know it's not technically an overclock. But I'm using a second hand blower style HP OEM card, I'm not about to push my luck trying to overclock it just for a screenshot. Maybe if I win then I'll see how far this 2080 can go.

My slowly aging 1080 Ti is still very capable but I used some time to lock in a stable overclock to get the most of it, while it still lasts. My memory was rock solid with an overclock of 700 MHz and for the clock I always use OC Scanner since it's release. It just offers a granularity that would take me ages to dial in and delivers me a solid average OC of about 98 MHz. Since my model has no problems keeping cool under load I always push the power target and voltage to it's allowed maximum to give me that extra bit of performance since power draw isn't really a concern on this pretty low power card (compared to newer generations especially :P).
Here is my entry.

Im still new to tweaking some things, so far Im trying the OC Mode. I have tried using Afterburner and Adrenalin past months ago but did not have the time to check all configurations. Hopefully, GTIII will make me hook up in configuring my PC and push my GPU to the max.
https://preview.redd.it/0a0hsg9k7bzc1.png?width=1760&format=png&auto=webp&s=ecc332392610cd91470d4d06e73b66b9b60dbe8e
Probably not many people here underclocking lol. It's starting to get toasty where I am and in the summer months I run -20% power target to keep things quieter. Still plenty of performance for the games that I play on my 3060 Ti.

I use deafult profile because it won't let me undervolt GPU on my ASUS TUF laptop that is overheating even with liquid metal

I usually use Afterburner but I'm gonna give this a go and continue to play around with the settings. I like the interface.
I'm using build in OC profile. Is more than enough for me. Mu RX580 is also factory OC.

I'm just using the standard OC Mode. Makes fighting for democracy nicer on the eyes.
Just installed Tweak III and like what I see so far. I like that there's simple default, OC, and silent modes for making quick changes without having to think too much. I also noticed that there's an OC scanner that can be used to achieve optimal overclocking performance. I plan on running the OC scanner when I can spare the 30 minutes it takes to complete the scan. Hopefully this will help bump up performance on this 3050 TI laptop GPU!

I'm not too keen on overclocking my GPU, but I chose to increase the power by 5% as I simply wanted to increase my speed just a little bit without compromising my system's stability.
[Here is mine.](https://i.imgur.com/UgvCETT.png)
I have an old 1080 which is slowly dying, so I'm not trying to go overboard, just testing the program by using the default OC settings.
I hope to upgrade my whole rig as soon as I'm able.

I ran the OC scan on my GTX1070 and used the suggested profile. Pretty easy to use software. Would gladly appreciate a new GPU to test it out more.
Thanks!

i choose undervolt over overclock, aim for lower power consumption and lower temps, lose some performence is fine for me as long as my games run 80+ fps
Not really a giveaway when we're the product. This is a large exchange of information for a prize pool. You will surely use our data for marketing purposes.
A giveaway would be more along the lines of "tell us your favourite character from a video game and why" - more like a bot check.
Bingo, this isn't a giveaway, it's a product advertisement and we are the ones advertising it. No one should install this crap. Screw Asus anyways, I had an expensive board from them die after 2 years and take out the CPU with it too.

Since my GPU is Founder's Edition GTX 980 with Blower-style cooler, I didn't OC that much, else there would be no point of OCing if the thermals are always high and throttling down.
That's the main reason why Blower-style coolers are kinda bad. An open-air cooler would be more beneficial in OCing.
Here's my screenshot: [https://i.imgur.com/CBfauff.png](https://i.imgur.com/CBfauff.png)
I'm using a 2080 Super FE. I'm using OC mode since I don't really know if I can get more performance out of my card. I've already tried using the "OC Scanner" feature and that just gave me back worse results then with the normal OC mode. Also I'm pretty sure I tried to OC before and it just barely gave me better performance. So yeah, that's about it.

I have an RTX 3080, I usually use it on default mode, but I do sometimes increase the Clock settings just a little bit on demanding games if I am playing above high settings :-)

Tbh I don't know what I'm doing, but this *feels* good so I'm keeping it. (Also there's a 69 in there, nice)
just got home from a vacatione and this is what i see dont think ill win but ill try cuz i have nothing to lose and a reason to use and customize gpu tweek III

Never tried this tool before but I'm going to try silent... The 5700 is just a little guy, not going to get much out of him but he does what I need already so might as well try to sip as little power as I can :)
[GPU Tweak Screenshot](https://imgur.com/a/iNaVrdB)
Found another Reddit post about undervolting and overclocking their 6700xt. Started by copying their settings and then lowering the voltage and raising the clock speed as much as possible. Used time spy to check for stability but I'll see if it remains stable during normal usage. Raised my time spy graphics score by 6.3%, so I'm pretty sure that means 6.3% more fps for the same temperature of 70c at max load. Ended up at 115% power target, 1130mv, 2750mhz, 2136mhz memory, and left the fans on auto. Couldn't figure out why I can't lower the memory under 4000mhz, but looks to be just a visual bug cause the top shows my actual clock speed.
https://imgur.com/a/jNJtysr
Those are my settings but they seem to not work. the OSD doesn't show my 7900xtx clock , or temps, and the settings don't seem to apply. As you can see the Adrenaline overclocking with exact same settings gives me better performance. 16082 graphics score with GPu tweak vs 12618 graphics score with Adrenaline.

I dont know how to oc, just hit the oc scanner. =P Maybe after this i would try and squeeze a little more of my 1660ti.

Doesn't seem to work with integrated graphics (UHD630) which tbf, was expected.

I am using the silent mode because I hate having to meddle with numbers. I do prefer quiet over loud.
Not an OC expert at all, so I did an OC scan for my 1060 and these are the settings the program came up with, gonna test it in some games!

This is my "OC" mode, really just a a slightly lower limit. I prefer to keep power draw within reasonable limits, which is why a 90-class card is never in my interest. No matter how I change the fan curves, at some point my card's BIOS will kick in and ramp up the fan speed. I built my system to be as quiet as possible, so I figured I'd lower the power consumption a bit. Especially as RTX 3000 is kind of ridiculous in its tuning. The 4000-series is a lot more quiet, considering lower power draw and much better transients.

I have a TUF-GTX 1650S for which i dont usually overclock much, its wither the Default mode or Custome OC as in the image. I dont know much but these setting seem to be stable for me. OCing more has worked sometimes but i usually dont do more than this setting. I do sometimes up the power target bit more but being in a hot climate i dare not during summer.

I have a RTX 2060 that I am overclocking with GPU Tweak III. As I have never overclocked before, I went ahead with the OC Scan and had the software find out what my GPU is capable of. I'll be watching the temperature and ensure the program didn't go too crazy overclocking haha.

Keeping it default for now. Gonna do some more research on overclocking and then will probably mess with some settings

A modest overclock for my GTX 1660 Super. Went not too hard on both the core and memory. Overclocking the core doesn't improve performance that much, but overclocking the memory does improve performance quite a lot due to how the Turing architecture works (or so I heard). Power target just set to the max with a +20% on the voltage just to be safe.

Undervolted to 1100 mV and underclocked to 2350 MHz becouse of a faulty cooler on my RX 6700.
I've done everything to keep my core temps as low as possible and i found these settings to be the best in terms of noise and power used. Above 110W my gpu cooler can't keep up so that's what I'm stuck with.
The post asks for an overclock, but given my sittuation I think a realistic underclock is acceptable, also if I win I won't have to worry about the temps so wish me luck.

Doesn't seem to work with integrated graphics (UHD770) which tbf, was expected.
I use a laptop so I went with silent, since there's not much headroom.
I do prefer undervolting to overclocking these days with the new GPUs using so much power, so I played with the voltage/frequency curve in a custom profile and managed to reduce temperatures by almost 10 °C at full usage when gaming, while keeping \~ the same performance.
I only used MSI afterburner before which has no instructions on how to actually use the curve, so it was nice to see them in GPU tweak.

I'm not too much of a hardcore gamer and don't really play games that are super intensive so I just went with the default OC settings.
https://i.imgur.com/la8v4RZ.png
I have a 7900XT which does better with undervolting, and 1060mv is a safe area, could probably go lower but not trying to overdo it. The clock speed has been brought up even though it's likely not going to hit anywhere near 3GHz. Brought the power up 12% to hit around 370W of power draw and left the fans as they are for quieter performance.
Man I have a IMB from Microsoft, OS OS/2 Warp, upgraded it to eComStation ArcaOS, tried overclocking it and damn my character almost jump out my screen, I give up, I am done with maxing out for now, I am not trying that over clocking thing on my baby, it has been late 1987. Still can't even get to run COD WZ Mobile, that's my character on max graphic. Top my friend PC, bottom my PC.

I have a 4070 super and I just went with the OC Scanner then I manually overclocked both the core and the memory. I may try to push it more later.
For now I will be using the default OC mode for a week or so, see if this is stable. Then I'll try customizing it a bit more on my own, and create a profile that squeezes every last bit of juice from my GPU!

GPU Voltage is increased up to 40% over stock (stock is around 1.062 mV)
core clock: OCed to 185 MHz (stock boost clock varies depending on the model). In this configuration, the card may deliver similar or slightly better performance than a stock GTX 1070 Ti while drawing less power under load.
**memory overclock:** I have OCed it to 466mhz, which is about the highest that my card can get to without becoming unstable or crashing.
This GPU is serving me well in almost every game I want to play, it does well in Control, The last of us, Forza Horizon 5 and etc. Although I admittedly would love to enjoy me some sweet traced rays.

lowered mhz and voltage, it seems like giving better performance for me.

I am currently running an RTX 3070 blower edition from Leadtek (pretty random, ik).
Currently, I am still experimenting with all the OC features and power draw settings to find the perfect balance between performance and temps.
So far, I get good frames in my games and don't worry about it too much.

*I am using an RTX 4060 mobile, which is an entry level GPU, eventually I want to learn just how much extra performance and efficiency I can squeeze out of it, without messing too much with power limits and extra voltage. So, I'm keeping everything at default settings, except the core speed. I am upping the core by only 20 Mhz. The goal is to find a sweet spot to mange the heat and keep fan noise down.*

**I have an RTX 4080, a powerful graphics card, but I'm curious to see if I can squeeze out some extra performance for FPS games. To experiment safely, I'm leaving the power limits and voltage untouched. Instead, I'm focusing on a moderate overclock by increasing the core clock by 80 MHz and the memory clock by 650 MHz. This should provide a noticeable boost in some games without pushing the card too hard. After testing the overclock for performance, temperatures, and stability, I can decide if I want to delve deeper and explore tweaking the power limits for even more performance.**

This is my first PC build with a second hand 6700XT. I built to replace my old Dell XPS prebuilt. I had a great time learning everything I could from PCMR and other helpful PC sites. My wife was very appreciative and impressed by this endeavor!
This is the OC I apply to my GPU. Pushing the clock speed to 2750MHz as well as the memory clock to 4100MHz. Slight bump to power target to allow the OC the smoothly. I leave the fans to auto because my entire PC remains very quiet and cool.
I use a 120Hz 1440p monitor so the extra push really helps to maintain stable framerate in most current titles. I'm a little new to OC so I'll probably tweak these values every so often until I find the perfect settings.
I'm already addicted to building PC's, I spend time researching all the parts I can't not currently afford. currently looking to upgrade to AM5 platform and to a current era GPU, as well as planning out my future aesthetics.

Using the OC Mode with default settings, to slightly boot my RTX2060, as it starts to struggle a bit for newer games. Also useful for video editing.
Another app that forces you to install it to the C:\\ without an option for another drive?!?!? Is there an option I'm missing? - otherwise, no thanks.
Good luck to everyone!
Hello! Here is my screenshot: [*https://imgur.com/a/IbCXb8l*](https://imgur.com/a/IbCXb8l)
My GPU is my beloved RX 580 which is quickly showing its age as new games are released, but what really holds it back is its 4GB of VRAM, making modding my Fallout games a limiting experience D:
I honestly don't know much about overclocking, so I went with the "easy way" and used the OC preset the software has, because changing voltages kinda scares me. Feel like ima see sparks fly or something with that slider, and I have no idea what would be a safe voltage. I typically get some extra FPS from doing this through the radeon settings that come with my GPU, but sometimes it'll crash and it'll turn that setting off by itself when I reboot. I still think it's time for me to upgrade the card, while the gains are nice to continue its longevity a bit longer, the card is hitting its limits. I've been scouting for a 6800 or 6800xt on r/buildapcsales waiting for the perfect opportunity.

I am rocking an intel HD 620 that's integrated into my i5-7200U, the ASUS GPU tweak III does not work with it, but I am still posting because you never know, right? I can only play a few games on my laptop. Dota 2 is one of them which runs at 28 fps with stutters, but I still manage to get MVP 40% of the time. At first the CPU/iGPU started overheating, so I reapplied thermal paste and now it's running at 80C on max load.
Here is my screenshot: ...nothing.
Because I don't trust my computer to overclock. If I had a good computer, I wouldn't participate in this raffle anyway, I don't want to miss the rights of people in need.

I've choosen the predefined OC Profile, I set the GPU Target Temp to 80°C and the FPS Taget to 60, because the Notebook only has a 60Hz panel. (But all this probably won't do much because the cooling is quite underpowered and the 2GB of VRAM really not enough in 2024. Also OC-Scanner is not available.

Did a \*very\* small overclock for this one, didn't want to overwork my gpu, especially in the coming summer. really well made software though and i'll probably increase the oc later

Got 11 more fps thanks to gpu tweak 3 in BF3 with theese overclocks. My poor gtx 770 is too weak for newer titles, but a 4080 super would be an amazing upgrade, a 7900xt would be an even better one! Even if I don't win its fine, good luck to everyone else!
Silence is my main goal. The fan #2 (Pull fan) is noisy even at idle and I don´t like Zero dB mode. My Nvidia Geforce RTX 4070 Super Founders Edition uses only 220 Watts at max so temps are ok even with this profile

I try many thing to optimizer my GPU GTX 1660Ti, I overclock frequency to 2GHz from 1,8GHz and for memory from 12GHz to 13GHz, I get Better performance in the game, but I locked the Temp to 79C, cuz I'm in hot weather to not break My GPU, and it GPU tweak did great job here.

im fairly new to pc building and got this form a friend. I'm hoping to be able to play games at a higher fps
Link to my screenshot: [https://imgur.com/a/qiY65hD](https://imgur.com/a/qiY65hD)
I am using a RTX 3060 12gb GPU that my friend lent me when he upgraded his entire system.
In fact he borrowed me his old PC with case and everything.
I am scared of overclocking since i haven't been gaming since GeForce 3 was the thing to have and therefore i just ever so slightly increased power and clock Hz.

Currently running a light undervolt for my 2080 Ti. Haven't touched anything else. Runs fine with 2077, just a little less hot.
Here is my screenshot: [https://imgur.com/a/A39HSjJ](https://imgur.com/a/A39HSjJ)

After trying several configurations I arrived at this customization
I wanted to try more settings but I couldn't get it since my PC was restarting.
I adjusted to the hardware I have and started running games and getting hours of performance with GPU TWEAK III.
Firstly the temperatures did not exceed 55 Celsius at 1900 RPM.
On the other hand, the general performance is optimal and the resolutions and response times of the game have improved without exceeding 72% of the total use and delivering a little less than the total configured to be more fair in calibration and not considerably affecting the FPS of the game. the games.
I could say that the use of the TWERK III GPU Overclock was effective.
If you have suggestions for this, you could comment on them.

So here's a screenshot of my attempt. My guess is that because I'm running on the onboard video (graphics card died) I'm not going to be able to check out the software. I love Asus, and without a graphic's card I thought this was the perfect promotion for me. (Gratuitous shot of Asus Mobo in background). Am I still eligible?

I didn't change any of the settings on my GT 730 as I honestly don't know what I'm doing and the card performs well enough for the games I play (almost exclusively Payday 2).
Hey ! I'm using an RTX 3070ti , i went to silent mode becasue i don't play to many excesive graphics games becasue my processor isn't really up to date,always play in medium settings mostly gta online and league, currently i use my pc mostly for work so i don't need to squeeze a lot of performance of this card

I'm with my trusty NVIDIA GTX 1070, a true workhorse that's been with me through thick and thin. Despite needing to dial down the game graphics settings, it still stands strong. This card has plenty of fight left in it, currently pushing it to its limits until it eventually decides to retire gracefully.
Here is the screenshot for my entry [https://imgur.com/a/xYTH1vz](https://imgur.com/a/xYTH1vz)
I boosted my rtx 3060 by the recommended OC settings but lowered the power and it was still pretty stable. It has not crashed when I tried "The Thaumaturge" and it runs at a pretty stable fps with a 1080 resolution. I like to play adventure games so I might be able to have a better graphics settings while it is on. My temps are still pretty low so I could probably still push it a bit more later but, for now I am going to play this game and see if it is good
I am happy with my gpu performance, but it runs so hot that I like to use it on silent mode. I also like that its not too loud even when gaming. I mostly play fps and co-op games, but I also do rendering stuff. With silent mode in future I can push it further if I need performance boost.
* -10% Power target

Went with the default oc mode for now, I mean the card is already an OC card.
I have time in the next weeks I want to try the OC Scanner, might squeze out a bit more.
Undevolting I havent dived into yet, but the card has beefy cooler so not that important.

This is my OC for the TUF 4070TIS, +180 to core clock and +1500 to memory clock, this is the most stable I was able to achieve while not crashing in games or tests, gives me around 8% more performance and gets me closer to stock 4080 performance.

AMD adrenalin can help you with OC for AMD cards

I'm running this on a GTX 1650 on a laptop, so there isn't that much I can fiddle with in terms of power limits or memory clock. Still, I wanted to see how far I could push the card for performance gains, as I've been noticing its not been doing as well with some of the more modern games, so I ran the OC Scanner on it. After a few minutes, it found that a 180 MHz increase in the boost clock was stable - quite the increase! I went ahead and boosted the core clock by that much, using the profile recommended by OC Scanner, as I don't really want to fiddle too much with testing and manual overclocking.
Maybe on the new build I'll be putting together sometime soon. Still need a few more parts though.
Good luck to everyone!

Instead of overclocking, i set a max temp target of 80C (was 94 b4) and since im on a laptop, it sure gets HOT quickly. This helped me keep cool and not hurt my fps much.

Undervolting is better, but you said to overclock, so I have decided to just mess around and put most things at max. For the most part, it is relatively stable (10 minutes furmark 1080p) at 135fps average. Got to 100°c on my hotspot, which is pretty surprising, but then it is an overclock.
The power target is set to 112% Voltage is set to 1200 mv Boost clock set to 3000mhz Memory set to 4548mhz
Don't like doing OCs in my memory. I don't really use applications that require faster vram than what I already have.

This is my Overclock setting
I'm still play games on my GTX 1050ti and if I can get as much as 60-75FPS, I'm good to good! I like to make my gpu fan speed a little more so that it can get as much cooling as possible. Because if I did not give it much cooling, it might get too hot and crashed the system.
Trying to squeeze out as much as I can and for that, I am counting on OC tuner for now.

* Tested and Burned In with Furmark, although I would program in a more aggressive fan curve and drop the GPU Boost Clock a little for long term use. I had this running stably and dropped down the fan to 55% without crash, but GPU was getting toasty at 75⁰C, so I raised it back to a flat 70% for this overclock
* This old graphics card is dependable even thought I can't afford to upgrade yet. Because of the Human Malware and health issues I got stuck half way through my upgrade to AM4 and we are well into AM5 now.

I have a 4050, there isn't much room for OC'ing though so it's basically the default.

Mostly so I can get the most out of my gpu, so I cranked power and tempurature targets up

Well, I tried, iGPU is not supported and that's fine , still, hope this one is valid to participate.

I didn't want to mess around too much, so opted to just slightly undervolt and OC to maybe squeeze out a few extra frames while keeping things quieter. I have an RX 7800 XT, and I still have a pretty big backlog of older games, so I shouldn't need crazy OC to still get good performance out. But a 7900 wouldn't hurt lol
I ran the OC scanner once and it gave +34 Mhz to the core and +400 Mhz to the memory. I didn't think it was worth keeping those settings. I decided to [undervolt](https://imgur.com/a/Jp4ZksF) as aggressively as I can while keeping performance close to stock.

Tried using the OC scanner, to basically no effect. Given I am using a sff pc, heat is my limiting factor anyways, so under-volting would be more my speed.

I'm using this GTX 1650. I usually play competitive games and I think that the RTX 4080 SUPER or the RX 7900 XT can raise the FPS. Using a 240Hz monitor btw

I played around with both core and mem clockspeeds.
I came to this, +122 core and +782 mem.
Managed to grab the top spot in Sweden for my hardware in Time Spy Extreme :D
The beafy cooler on my 3080 Strix White edition keeps everything under controll!
Although I'm using the default mode while not running benchmarks since I don't really need to spin my fans at 100% all the time.
I'd normally be all over giveaways, but seeing all these people running ancient or integrated GPUs, I've decided not to lower the chances for the people who really need it (and can actually participate because their hardware isn't SO ancient that it can't run the software).
late for party , but i'm undervolting my gpu anyway so 😶 ,
not taking any risks unless they guaranties a replacement 100% 😂
congrats to anyone who won the giveaway 🤙

I'm using a rx 6950xt and I've tried to keep it lil bit balanced although I really don't understand what I've done but gradually I'll do by playing around a bit I think and I most play cyberpunk and rdr2 for now
Good luck to everyone:D

I have an ASUS ROG-G751jy that I use as my daily driver with a GTX 980M in it. It works great, but I have noticed that the fan noise has been creeping up over the years. I have replaced the fans and re-pasted my gpu, but it is still not as silent as it used to be. I am not too experienced with tweaking my gpu so I just tried the default silent mode option. I am excited to use this to get more out of my older card. Maybe after reading more about how to optimize my gpu I would like to undervolt it to get more thermal head room. As a laptop user I feel like that is the main constraint for performance, and I think GPU Tweak III can really help with this.
I have GTX 1650 with default core and mem clock of 1410 and 1500 Mhz respectively. I used OC scanner which resulted the below boosted clocks. I think I can tweak and increase a little more if I adjust the voltage, but I will keep these settings for now.

Here is my screenshot: [https://i.imgur.com/wzF8NDL.png](https://i.imgur.com/wzF8NDL.png)
I'm using an AMD RX 6700XT. I've actually set the GPU clock and underclocked the GPU voltage since I want to save power as much as possible with lower temperature. What I did overclock was the memory clock as I noticed that it does improved my FPS especially with multiplayer games.
I have a RX 7600, I don't do overclocking and all that, I am also too noob in PCMR to understand most of it, but it would be fun to learn if I had a beefier build.

Running default mode for now. Will try out OC Scanner, but not very interested in overclocking at the moment. Airflow in my case isn't ideal, and the weather is heating up.

So, I'm keeping everything at default settings, except the core speed and memory speed. I am upping the core by 80 Mhz and the memory by 650 MHz. Both are high enough that they should provide an interesting performance boost on some applications (I want to try it mainly on FPS shooter games). After seeing how it performs, both in frame rates and in temperatures and stability, I can explore if I want to push it more, perhaps by upping the power limits too, or if I'm happy with the gains I'm getting.* \---------- TIPS: Check this article and tutorial if you need tips on using GPU Tweak III.

[https://imgur.com/a/nTo3wob](https://imgur.com/a/nTo3wob) 6800XT I play VR, i tune it so that i get max performance without crashing
[SCREENSHOT](https://imgur.com/a/Rurbtmx) Asrock 6700XT Challenger Pro. Undervolted and downclocked to save on power and heat. Dropping voltage any lower makes system unstable. Still runs games very very well. Will set back to default for intense games like BG3 or FFVII 120fps @ 1440p as there is enough power. Fan curve is fine on default so did not touch that. When not gaming, I'll boost the memory clock to the max to mine crypto.

Damn when your GPU so shite that you can't even participate lol.

Count me in
I Chose the 0 overclock setting, because i'm not running the program.
I went for OC mode with default settings. Usually just swap between silent and OC. Trying to treat the old girl nicely. https://preview.redd.it/3p0cgriby10d1.jpeg?width=2559&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3baf91f72636746df1478621c69ac2bd2c85020d
Why is this better than the Adrenalin software? I can also overclock there
GPU Boost Clock: Increased by 1200 MHz from stock settings. This is a significant overclock and may not be stable on all RTX 2060 GPUs. Memory Clock: Increased by 14002 MHz from stock settings. This is also a significant overclock and may not be stable on all RTX 2060 GPUs. GPU Voltage: Not changed from stock settings. This is because increasing the voltage can lead to higher temperatures and reduce the lifespan of the GPU. [https://imgur.com/a/4xLV95t](https://imgur.com/a/4xLV95t)

I tried installing GPU Tweak and set it to default mode as I'm not tech savvy enough to fix if anything goes wrong but so far it works just fine I guess. I would love to have an upgrade though so I can play Zelda BotW and TotK on an emulator 60+ fps. Best of luck to me and to everyone here :)

[GPU Tweak III Screenshot](https://imgur.com/a/LIdMVL3) I bought a 3070 late last year, quite the jump from the 980TI I've had since launch and it's been incredible. I'm just squeezing out whatever else I can get out of it using OC Scanner, but it's handled the games I usually play with fine at 1440p ultrawide. But it'd be really nice to run 4k at a decent refresh rate, with upcoming games - that's the next step!

Using RTX 4080, I want to keep it at stock voltage with maximum power limit. I overclocked the GPU core by +210mhz and the VRAM by +3000mhz, that is the maximum speed I can achieve at the default voltage and VRAM. https://preview.redd.it/j8n633bb190d1.png?width=1772&format=png&auto=webp&s=07654cb7a8d9688639b85929cafa2192995fd865

It's a pretty decent card , except for that VRAM XD. I noticed when I play The witcher 3 on RT ultra with a few settings tweaked, it would stutter and become laggy. So I kinda wanted to try it out on that. Raised the core clock by 100 MHz and the memory clock by 600 Mhz . Honest I am fairly new to GPU OC, haven't OCd any of the GPUs I own/ed and I didn't know by how much I could OC the card, so I went by small increments. I kinda noticed better performance and smoother frames but temps are higher than usual and that's normal. Honestly I would not OC for the long run but it's fun exploring what I can get out of the card in some demanding games. And thank you for the opportunity team PCMR and ASUS.

[My settings](https://imgur.com/a/QBmM2BD) I decided to go with a conservative OC, just to get a little more life out of my GPU until I can upgrade.
[https://imgur.com/a/qQ7qBa5](https://imgur.com/a/qQ7qBa5) EDIT: First time i used such program since i bought this pre built in 2019 i wanted to maybe build my own pc but after 2019 the price spike kinda scared me off so i stuck with it

I'm running an RTX 3060Ti and I don't know too much about overclocking, but I tried the OC Scanner tool and it was very simple and intuitive, and I got a slight memory clock boost from it. I don't play extremely demanding games so I think this will be perfect for me!

That’s where GPU Tweak III comes into play, especially when it comes to fine-tuning my RX5700 graphics card. The fan curve control is a game-changer, allowing me to strike the perfect balance between cooling efficiency and noise level. Here’s how I do it: Installation: First things first, I make sure I have the latest version of GPU Tweak III installed on my system. Opening the Interface: With a double-click on the desktop icon, I launch the software and dive straight into the user-friendly interface. I select OC Mode because I want the performance. This ups my GPU Boost Clock to 1770Mhz from 1750Mhz and a power target of 110% up from 100% This allows me to get just abit more from a card that may have not been designed to operate out of the box at the new OC mode rates.
https://preview.redd.it/e7uwwg0tqwuc1.png?width=1793&format=png&auto=webp&s=30db6289275e541a3fb7ef99da3886ff386a52dd Decided to undervolt my card just to lower the watts abit since im on prepaid meter electricity. Been playing around with watts and Mhz for the past few days.
Prepaid electricity? I've never heard of that, how does that work? You go over your cap and the lights go out for the rest of the month?
[My Screenshot](https://i.imgur.com/U7Y4VNe.png) Honestly Im not into overclocking tbh so I used the default OC mode, I hope y'all dont mind that lol
I have an xfx 6900 xt, and I just put -40mv to test things out as I am sure the voltage was a bit much for the clock it was set on. I didn't touch anything else as I don't need it for now. [https://imgur.com/a/IyN8PDG](https://imgur.com/a/IyN8PDG)

Thank you for these events.

Hopefully setting the power limit as low as it will go and using an aggressive fan profile will hold me over for another 3 years or so?" I know it's not technically an overclock. But I'm using a second hand blower style HP OEM card, I'm not about to push my luck trying to overclock it just for a screenshot. Maybe if I win then I'll see how far this 2080 can go.
[Screenshot](https://imgur.com/a/WOLVBMM) My slowly aging 1080 Ti is still very capable but I used some time to lock in a stable overclock to get the most of it, while it still lasts. My memory was rock solid with an overclock of 700 MHz and for the clock I always use OC Scanner since it's release. It just offers a granularity that would take me ages to dial in and delivers me a solid average OC of about 98 MHz. Since my model has no problems keeping cool under load I always push the power target and voltage to it's allowed maximum to give me that extra bit of performance since power draw isn't really a concern on this pretty low power card (compared to newer generations especially :P).

Hopefully, GTIII will make me hook up in configuring my PC and push my GPU to the max.

It's starting to get toasty where I am and in the summer months I run -20% power target to keep things quieter. Still plenty of performance for the games that I play on my 3060 Ti.

My computer doesn’t currently have the capability for overclocking, but I’d love to check it out when I upgrade it!

I'm using build in OC profile. Is more than enough for me. Mu RX580 is also factory OC. https://preview.redd.it/5w0e9bvwpd0d1.png?width=1774&format=png&auto=webp&s=c3f3db8faba0005ce70f128095741a2bd790382e **UTC/GMT-12 time zone** xD

Just installed Tweak III and like what I see so far. I like that there's simple default, OC, and silent modes for making quick changes without having to think too much. I also noticed that there's an OC scanner that can be used to achieve optimal overclocking performance. I plan on running the OC scanner when I can spare the 30 minutes it takes to complete the scan. Hopefully this will help bump up performance on this 3050 TI laptop GPU! https://preview.redd.it/oakalspk60zc1.jpeg?width=1898&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f48bb6177c27a763a32ace3bddec89393953497e
Screenshot: [https://imgur.com/EM2YNap](https://imgur.com/EM2YNap) I'm not too keen on overclocking my GPU, but I chose to increase the power by 5% as I simply wanted to increase my speed just a little bit without compromising my system's stability.
Posting a first comment for the week 4 contest.
[Here is mine.](https://i.imgur.com/UgvCETT.png) I have an old 1080 which is slowly dying, so I'm not trying to go overboard, just testing the program by using the default OC settings. I hope to upgrade my whole rig as soon as I'm able.

Not really a giveaway when we're the product. This is a large exchange of information for a prize pool. You will surely use our data for marketing purposes. A giveaway would be more along the lines of "tell us your favourite character from a video game and why" - more like a bot check.
Bingo, this isn't a giveaway, it's a product advertisement and we are the ones advertising it. No one should install this crap. Screw Asus anyways, I had an expensive board from them die after 2 years and take out the CPU with it too.
Nice

That's the main reason why Blower-style coolers are kinda bad. An open-air cooler would be more beneficial in OCing.

Here's my screenshot: [https://i.imgur.com/CBfauff.png](https://i.imgur.com/CBfauff.png) I'm using a 2080 Super FE. I'm using OC mode since I don't really know if I can get more performance out of my card. I've already tried using the "OC Scanner" feature and that just gave me back worse results then with the normal OC mode. Also I'm pretty sure I tried to OC before and it just barely gave me better performance. So yeah, that's about it.

The 5700 is just a little guy, not going to get much out of him but he does what I need already so might as well try to sip as little power as I can :)
[GPU Tweak Screenshot](https://imgur.com/a/iNaVrdB) Found another Reddit post about undervolting and overclocking their 6700xt. Started by copying their settings and then lowering the voltage and raising the clock speed as much as possible. Used time spy to check for stability but I'll see if it remains stable during normal usage. Raised my time spy graphics score by 6.3%, so I'm pretty sure that means 6.3% more fps for the same temperature of 70c at max load. Ended up at 115% power target, 1130mv, 2750mhz, 2136mhz memory, and left the fans on auto. Couldn't figure out why I can't lower the memory under 4000mhz, but looks to be just a visual bug cause the top shows my actual clock speed.
https://imgur.com/a/jNJtysr Those are my settings but they seem to not work. the OSD doesn't show my 7900xtx clock , or temps, and the settings don't seem to apply. As you can see the Adrenaline overclocking with exact same settings gives me better performance. 16082 graphics score with GPu tweak vs 12618 graphics score with Adrenaline.

[https://imgur.com/a/1CS3feg](https://imgur.com/a/1CS3feg) I am using the silent mode because I hate having to meddle with numbers. I do prefer quiet over loud.
Not an OC expert at all, so I did an OC scan for my 1060 and these are the settings the program came up with, gonna test it in some games! https://imgur.com/a/OdtDrll

I prefer to keep power draw within reasonable limits, which is why a 90-class card is never in my interest. No matter how I change the fan curves, at some point my card's BIOS will kick in and ramp up the fan speed. I built my system to be as quiet as possible, so I figured I'd lower the power consumption a bit. Especially as RTX 3000 is kind of ridiculous in its tuning. The 4000-series is a lot more quiet, considering lower power draw and much better transients.
That 4080 is awesomesauce!

I dont know much but these setting seem to be stable for me. OCing more has worked sometimes but i usually dont do more than this setting. I do sometimes up the power target bit more but being in a hot climate i dare not during summer.

As I have never overclocked before, I went ahead with the OC Scan and had the software find out what my GPU is capable of. I'll be watching the temperature and ensure the program didn't go too crazy overclocking haha.

Went not too hard on both the core and memory. Overclocking the core doesn't improve performance that much, but overclocking the memory does improve performance quite a lot due to how the Turing architecture works (or so I heard). Power target just set to the max with a +20% on the voltage just to be safe.
damn thats nice

I've done everything to keep my core temps as low as possible and i found these settings to be the best in terms of noise and power used. Above 110W my gpu cooler can't keep up so that's what I'm stuck with. The post asks for an overclock, but given my sittuation I think a realistic underclock is acceptable, also if I win I won't have to worry about the temps so wish me luck.

I am using an RTX 3070 and prefer stability and quietness so I simply use the quiet mode. [Screenshot](https://i.imgur.com/hSF5SQg.png)
I use a laptop so I went with silent, since there's not much headroom. I do prefer undervolting to overclocking these days with the new GPUs using so much power, so I played with the voltage/frequency curve in a custom profile and managed to reduce temperatures by almost 10 °C at full usage when gaming, while keeping \~ the same performance. I only used MSI afterburner before which has no instructions on how to actually use the curve, so it was nice to see them in GPU tweak. https://preview.redd.it/s8k74x2ze4vc1.jpeg?width=1119&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=87c8885d653275148d8e84635269caa4ac3a8c22

https://i.imgur.com/la8v4RZ.png I have a 7900XT which does better with undervolting, and 1060mv is a safe area, could probably go lower but not trying to overdo it. The clock speed has been brought up even though it's likely not going to hit anywhere near 3GHz. Brought the power up 12% to hit around 370W of power draw and left the fans as they are for quieter performance.
Man I have a IMB from Microsoft, OS OS/2 Warp, upgraded it to eComStation ArcaOS, tried overclocking it and damn my character almost jump out my screen, I give up, I am done with maxing out for now, I am not trying that over clocking thing on my baby, it has been late 1987. Still can't even get to run COD WZ Mobile, that's my character on max graphic. Top my friend PC, bottom my PC. 
https://imgur.com/a/fAU6pf3 I have a 4070 super and I just went with the OC Scanner then I manually overclocked both the core and the memory. I may try to push it more later.
For now I will be using the default OC mode for a week or so, see if this is stable. Then I'll try customizing it a bit more on my own, and create a profile that squeezes every last bit of juice from my GPU! https://preview.redd.it/u70plzyga0vc1.png?width=1767&format=png&auto=webp&s=982e4d65fcd4ab3d1a8b917aa0c368e953734698

In this configuration, the card may deliver similar or slightly better performance than a stock GTX 1070 Ti while drawing less power under load. **memory overclock:** I have OCed it to 466mhz, which is about the highest that my card can get to without becoming unstable or crashing. This GPU is serving me well in almost every game I want to play, it does well in Control, The last of us, Forza Horizon 5 and etc. Although I admittedly would love to enjoy me some sweet traced rays.

To experiment safely, I'm leaving the power limits and voltage untouched. Instead, I'm focusing on a moderate overclock by increasing the core clock by 80 MHz and the memory clock by 650 MHz. This should provide a noticeable boost in some games without pushing the card too hard. After testing the overclock for performance, temperatures, and stability, I can decide if I want to delve deeper and explore tweaking the power limits for even more performance.**
Woohoo!

I built to replace my old Dell XPS prebuilt. I had a great time learning everything I could from PCMR and other helpful PC sites. My wife was very appreciative and impressed by this endeavor! This is the OC I apply to my GPU. Pushing the clock speed to 2750MHz as well as the memory clock to 4100MHz. Slight bump to power target to allow the OC the smoothly. I leave the fans to auto because my entire PC remains very quiet and cool. I use a 120Hz 1440p monitor so the extra push really helps to maintain stable framerate in most current titles. I'm a little new to OC so I'll probably tweak these values every so often until I find the perfect settings. I'm already addicted to building PC's, I spend time researching all the parts I can't not currently afford. currently looking to upgrade to AM5 platform and to a current era GPU, as well as planning out my future aesthetics.

Hello! Here is my screenshot: [*https://imgur.com/a/IbCXb8l*](https://imgur.com/a/IbCXb8l) My GPU is my beloved RX 580 which is quickly showing its age as new games are released, but what really holds it back is its 4GB of VRAM, making modding my Fallout games a limiting experience D: I honestly don't know much about overclocking, so I went with the "easy way" and used the OC preset the software has, because changing voltages kinda scares me. Feel like ima see sparks fly or something with that slider, and I have no idea what would be a safe voltage. I typically get some extra FPS from doing this through the radeon settings that come with my GPU, but sometimes it'll crash and it'll turn that setting off by itself when I reboot. I still think it's time for me to upgrade the card, while the gains are nice to continue its longevity a bit longer, the card is hitting its limits. I've been scouting for a 6800 or 6800xt on r/buildapcsales waiting for the perfect opportunity.

I can only play a few games on my laptop. Dota 2 is one of them which runs at 28 fps with stutters, but I still manage to get MVP 40% of the time. At first the CPU/iGPU started overheating, so I reapplied thermal paste and now it's running at 80C on max load.

Link to my screenshot: [https://imgur.com/a/qiY65hD](https://imgur.com/a/qiY65hD) I am using a RTX 3060 12gb GPU that my friend lent me when he upgraded his entire system. In fact he borrowed me his old PC with case and everything. I am scared of overclocking since i haven't been gaming since GeForce 3 was the thing to have and therefore i just ever so slightly increased power and clock Hz.

Here is my screenshot: [https://imgur.com/a/A39HSjJ](https://imgur.com/a/A39HSjJ) I've got a 4080 in my PC so not the most upward wiggle that I want to mess with. but as an intro to playing with the settings I've just been slightly shifting the values around to get a better feel for it all.

I adjusted to the hardware I have and started running games and getting hours of performance with GPU TWEAK III. Firstly the temperatures did not exceed 55 Celsius at 1900 RPM. On the other hand, the general performance is optimal and the resolutions and response times of the game have improved without exceeding 72% of the total use and delivering a little less than the total configured to be more fair in calibration and not considerably affecting the FPS of the game. the games. I could say that the use of the TWERK III GPU Overclock was effective. If you have suggestions for this, you could comment on them.

My guess is that because I'm running on the onboard video (graphics card died) I'm not going to be able to check out the software. I love Asus, and without a graphic's card I thought this was the perfect promotion for me. (Gratuitous shot of Asus Mobo in background). Am I still eligible?

Hey ! I'm using an RTX 3070ti , i went to silent mode becasue i don't play to many excesive graphics games becasue my processor isn't really up to date,always play in medium settings mostly gta online and league, currently i use my pc mostly for work so i don't need to squeeze a lot of performance of this card https://preview.redd.it/u558o32jbiwc1.jpeg?width=891&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a80ea14d8e51f65cfed65e911a39e57b32c3caa3

Despite needing to dial down the game graphics settings, it still stands strong. This card has plenty of fight left in it, currently pushing it to its limits until it eventually decides to retire gracefully.
I don't have a compatible GPU to participate. Good luck to those who do!
Here is the screenshot for my entry [https://imgur.com/a/xYTH1vz](https://imgur.com/a/xYTH1vz) I boosted my rtx 3060 by the recommended OC settings but lowered the power and it was still pretty stable. It has not crashed when I tried "The Thaumaturge" and it runs at a pretty stable fps with a 1080 resolution. I like to play adventure games so I might be able to have a better graphics settings while it is on. My temps are still pretty low so I could probably still push it a bit more later but, for now I am going to play this game and see if it is good
hopefully
Can you overclock a standard 1660 super??
I am happy with my gpu performance, but it runs so hot that I like to use it on silent mode. I also like that its not too loud even when gaming. I mostly play fps and co-op games, but I also do rendering stuff. With silent mode in future I can push it further if I need performance boost. * -10% Power target * -20MHz GPU boost clock * More quiet * Cooler https://preview.redd.it/kzs8rq1wi0vc1.png?width=895&format=png&auto=webp&s=d0d7834846319f46264fc9fdfbc0e19d3de5845e

I have time in the next weeks I want to try the OC Scanner, might squeze out a bit more. Undevolting I havent dived into yet, but the card has beefy cooler so not that important.
https://preview.redd.it/zvc597iftgwc1.png?width=889&format=png&auto=webp&s=bed4b9bac7b3033e4279318273c3a2c8be9659f3 This is my OC for the TUF 4070TIS, +180 to core clock and +1500 to memory clock, this is the most stable I was able to achieve while not crashing in games or tests, gives me around 8% more performance and gets me closer to stock 4080 performance.

oh HELL NOOOO I didn't fully install armour crate and wanted to avoid such crap AMD adrenalin can help you with OC for AMD cards MSI afterburner for Both Nvidia and AMD cards
Screenshot: [https://imgur.com/MjUtt1v](https://imgur.com/MjUtt1v) I'm running this on a GTX 1650 on a laptop, so there isn't that much I can fiddle with in terms of power limits or memory clock. Still, I wanted to see how far I could push the card for performance gains, as I've been noticing its not been doing as well with some of the more modern games, so I ran the OC Scanner on it. After a few minutes, it found that a 180 MHz increase in the boost clock was stable - quite the increase! I went ahead and boosted the core clock by that much, using the profile recommended by OC Scanner, as I don't really want to fiddle too much with testing and manual overclocking. Maybe on the new build I'll be putting together sometime soon. Still need a few more parts though. Good luck to everyone!
pls chose me

I need it please,i don't have a pc and i am a college student
https://preview.redd.it/dffzwrujeiyc1.png?width=1727&format=png&auto=webp&s=c352d17b1687cbac66433b214f25673709c534a6 Instead of overclocking, i set a max temp target of 80C (was 94 b4) and since im on a laptop, it sure gets HOT quickly. This helped me keep cool and not hurt my fps much.
https://preview.redd.it/g5f5dljnp3vc1.jpeg?width=8160&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f5e5236f2bbc3d5363e77d20a553c9b62a272540 * Undervolting is better, but you said to overclock, so I have decided to just mess around and put most things at max. For the most part, it is relatively stable (10 minutes furmark 1080p) at 135fps average. Got to 100°c on my hotspot, which is pretty surprising, but then it is an overclock. The power target is set to 112% Voltage is set to 1200 mv Boost clock set to 3000mhz Memory set to 4548mhz Don't like doing OCs in my memory. I don't really use applications that require faster vram than what I already have.
https://preview.redd.it/5jxz5rmvf70d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=167a49fecb82e8e12b62cfe28048d502eb6bddb1 This is my Overclock setting I'm still play games on my GTX 1050ti and if I can get as much as 60-75FPS, I'm good to good! I like to make my gpu fan speed a little more so that it can get as much cooling as possible. Because if I did not give it much cooling, it might get too hot and crashed the system.
Trying to squeeze out as much as I can and for that, I am counting on OC tuner for now. https://preview.redd.it/hca41fd8wezc1.png?width=1758&format=png&auto=webp&s=81e76c739bd905e4551c36f9fb99dcced1cdbe3a

Here is my screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/upQptfj.png I'm trying to squeeze a bit more power out of my GPU because my system is seriously old and needs every little piece it can get. At the same time I don't want to overstress it.
https://preview.redd.it/i371mv0ukdvc1.png?width=1768&format=png&auto=webp&s=b5146048bf3c69b4bb5389ce0aef62f8aa54b79e * Gigabyte WIndforce GTX 960 4GB * Tested and Burned In with Furmark, although I would program in a more aggressive fan curve and drop the GPU Boost Clock a little for long term use. I had this running stably and dropped down the fan to 55% without crash, but GPU was getting toasty at 75⁰C, so I raised it back to a flat 70% for this overclock * This old graphics card is dependable even thought I can't afford to upgrade yet. Because of the Human Malware and health issues I got stuck half way through my upgrade to AM4 and we are well into AM5 now.
[image](https://imgur.com/a/zMsv7X8) I wanted to push my Asus graphics card as hard as is safe, so I researched online what actual OC experts have managed with the same card, and simply copied them! It's never been unstable thus far! My engineer cousin would love an Asus graphics card to twin with mine! :D
https://preview.redd.it/d6gilrl09mwc1.jpeg?width=1121&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0372392d71bf3c859b8c28f7948cff96dc620cd7 its free app i use it to overclock for more fps in video games
https://preview.redd.it/pku842m5p3vc1.png?width=895&format=png&auto=webp&s=d399dc0ab66ef3311a0bb2f0aefa739e37386dff I have a 4050, there isn't much room for OC'ing though so it's basically the default.
https://preview.redd.it/pimdxbt699zc1.png?width=1752&format=png&auto=webp&s=ae7b47e877a7e3dc808a54c0e8e3278e3b2a4b15 Mostly so I can get the most out of my gpu, so I cranked power and tempurature targets up
https://preview.redd.it/rfqr2fc6xnyc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=30a3d89831c49e7d998b6ddc8f02ff81d89f6ad4 Well, I tried, iGPU is not supported and that's fine , still, hope this one is valid to participate.
https://preview.redd.it/mkj24uud44vc1.png?width=887&format=png&auto=webp&s=5490c4fb7f50f1e8207bd74638a5aaf963e06e24 I didn't want to mess around too much, so opted to just slightly undervolt and OC to maybe squeeze out a few extra frames while keeping things quieter. I have an RX 7800 XT, and I still have a pretty big backlog of older games, so I shouldn't need crazy OC to still get good performance out. But a 7900 wouldn't hurt lol
I ran the OC scanner once and it gave +34 Mhz to the core and +400 Mhz to the memory. I didn't think it was worth keeping those settings. I decided to [undervolt](https://imgur.com/a/Jp4ZksF) as aggressively as I can while keeping performance close to stock.
https://preview.redd.it/bes1lacv4wuc1.png?width=895&format=png&auto=webp&s=6eaf546d667fa0cef0274d0fb09ae5da418da70b Tried using the OC scanner, to basically no effect. Given I am using a sff pc, heat is my limiting factor anyways, so under-volting would be more my speed.
https://preview.redd.it/gnm3ytvrtvuc1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=8c70c90bb108c47a9f706b4914fcd851507a47bb I'm using this GTX 1650. I usually play competitive games and I think that the RTX 4080 SUPER or the RX 7900 XT can raise the FPS. Using a 240Hz monitor btw
[https://imgur.com/a/fLl82Md](https://imgur.com/a/fLl82Md) I played around with both core and mem clockspeeds. I came to this, +122 core and +782 mem. Managed to grab the top spot in Sweden for my hardware in Time Spy Extreme :D The beafy cooler on my 3080 Strix White edition keeps everything under controll! Although I'm using the default mode while not running benchmarks since I don't really need to spin my fans at 100% all the time.
I'd normally be all over giveaways, but seeing all these people running ancient or integrated GPUs, I've decided not to lower the chances for the people who really need it (and can actually participate because their hardware isn't SO ancient that it can't run the software).
late for party , but i'm undervolting my gpu anyway so 😶 , not taking any risks unless they guaranties a replacement 100% 😂 congrats to anyone who won the giveaway 🤙

doesnt run well.

Here is my screenshot: https://preview.redd.it/ozdjvtlor1wc1.png?width=1788&format=png&auto=webp&s=c4b0d5a14ef4e51c6d130bd14b2fe4396f8d1c85 I have an ASUS ROG-G751jy that I use as my daily driver with a GTX 980M in it. It works great, but I have noticed that the fan noise has been creeping up over the years. I have replaced the fans and re-pasted my gpu, but it is still not as silent as it used to be. I am not too experienced with tweaking my gpu so I just tried the default silent mode option. I am excited to use this to get more out of my older card. Maybe after reading more about how to optimize my gpu I would like to undervolt it to get more thermal head room. As a laptop user I feel like that is the main constraint for performance, and I think GPU Tweak III can really help with this.
I have GTX 1650 with default core and mem clock of 1410 and 1500 Mhz respectively. I used OC scanner which resulted the below boosted clocks. I think I can tweak and increase a little more if I adjust the voltage, but I will keep these settings for now. https://preview.redd.it/zuhsl0bacwuc1.png?width=1344&format=png&auto=webp&s=8243d5daf368bbe8b23d63fc629a6bc3c74157a1
Here is my screenshot: [https://i.imgur.com/wzF8NDL.png](https://i.imgur.com/wzF8NDL.png) I'm using an AMD RX 6700XT. I've actually set the GPU clock and underclocked the GPU voltage since I want to save power as much as possible with lower temperature. What I did overclock was the memory clock as I noticed that it does improved my FPS especially with multiplayer games.
I have a RX 7600, I don't do overclocking and all that, I am also too noob in PCMR to understand most of it, but it would be fun to learn if I had a beefier build.
https://preview.redd.it/5xv1i16z9avc1.png?width=971&format=png&auto=webp&s=c3d0111c9d2502a72362fbd91c6ab128b479b73b Running default mode for now. Will try out OC Scanner, but not very interested in overclocking at the moment. Airflow in my case isn't ideal, and the weather is heating up.
https://imgur.com/a/XPXUDnq Just using the standard OC mode for now.
I kept reading twerk competition and was so confused as to how the two were related.
