    Schony125 reacted to Bouzoo in Gpu overclocking on a laptop   
    I've OC a bunch of laptop GPUs, no issues whatsoever. Since it has a 1070, I'm pretty sure his laptop has a decent enough cooling which should be fine. In my experience that is. Also laptop 1070 are usually clocled lower than the desktop ones so OC it would usually mean getting it first to clocks of FE and then going for real performance. It is probably downclocked from the factory.

    No worries haha i guess it helps if someone has actually done the overclocking at least then the input is relevant to some extent
     
    i kinda hated the crashes tho haha ?

    overdoing memory overclock will introduce artifacting and unusual colors. i've done it once before all in without going steady, never doing that again. go slowly up.
    worst case scenario just reset/force power off, and the settings will revert back to normal
     
    both cases will crash eventually, core clock is just a frozen frame... while memory nets u random artifacts if overdone beyond limit

    You are going from 4 to 6 and one gen up, but I still think it may be a tad steep if that 4930k is used.

    btw, im rocking 4k most games high to med high settings at 60 fps from gta v, ets 2, battlefield 3 on ultra, shadow of mordor and even assetto corsa with single gpu becuase it doesnt support crossfirex getting almost steady 60 fps with some dips at 40 with 2 390's. If you count only the 2 cards they are cheaper than a titan or 980ti in my country, without considering watercooling.

    People keep saying stupid things like this and it's baffling for so many reasons.
     
    First of all it makes the assumption that people only ever play games that are around 3-4 months old. Someone wanting to play CSGO, Mass Effect, Tomb Raider 2013 or most games more than a year old really will pretty easily be getting 120 fps at 4K and so will benefit from this.
     
    Secondly it assumes that all modern games are equally demanding. No. There are plenty of undemanding games being released.
     
    Thirdly it doesn't take into account how well current GPUs can even handle modern demanding games. Two 970s in SLI, for example, get around 80 fps in GTA V at 4K at a mix of Very High and Ultra settings if you bother to tweak. (Or actually just choose the default settings GeForce Experience offers. You don't even have to know what you're doing to have a good PC Gaming experience these days. Which is fortunate, if this forum is anything to go by.) That game would benefit tremendously from g-sync/freesync because while the minimum framerates are around 60, the maximum framerates are well over 100.
     
    Fourthly it ignores the value of variable refresh rate at lower framerates like 40-45 -- which is what I get when I completely max out The Witcher 3, btw. If someone were to choose an incredibly stunning video experience over framerate, they could at least get regular frame intervals with it, which is half the issue with framerates between 30 and 60.
     
    @OddsCrazyStuff Like 4560x2560 is  MUCH more demanding resolution than a puny 3840x2160, but I don't doubt for a minute that you can get 120 fps at that res due to a mixture of the actual games you are playing, and this amazing (apparently new) invention of PC gaming -- the options menu.
     
    Personally I'm expecting the first 120hz 4K monitors around Chistmas, but I'm not expecting them to be cheap.

    Yes, there are multiple versions of DisplayPort. All versions use the same cable. DisplayPort cables do not have versions.

    Schony125 reacted to agent_x007 in vram overclock   
    Well, history/experience says that VRAM chips are usually "more solid" than solder used to connect them to PCB of graphics card, so yeah... in theory yes, it can fail but it's usually solder not chips themselves.
    In short : If VRAM chip itself will fail - that's unusal to say the least (very rare occurance).
    BUT I based that on old graphics card that work today (10Y+ 7900 GTX that still works or older GPU's). Don't know how GTX 780 series cards will behave 5Y from now.

    To answer other question that may pop-up :
    SSD/Flash memory is a non-volatile memory that has a write cycle limit per cell (because it needs to store data, even when there is no power).
    When that limit is reached, a memory cell may no longer store data correcly (which creates errors).
    U cannot however apply write cylce limit from SSD type memory, to a volatile memory like VRAM/RAM.
    VRAM volatile type because it's based on capacity cells that require refreshing, and that will lose all the data stored in them, when power is lost.
