Boost Clock?

[Sumolizer]

So i have a msi Geforce GTX950 OCV3 .

Its working really fine.

The Temps are also fine as it idles around 23C and at load it reaches to 63-64C

This card supports Boost Clock but still its clock remain around 1076 mhz (Max Base Clock) even its 100% used or not. (Furmark)

This should boost to around 1253mhz.

I know there will not be much performance difference but still i need it.

Am i doing something wrong?

Download and run HWMonitor, expand out the video card section, there should be something called "performance limit." Alternatively you can download and run GPU-z, go to the Sensors tab, and look at the "PerfCap" reason. Both are reporting the same thing

 

You can find out why the card isn't boosting from there. Or if you'd like you can tell us what it is.

Its saying that It is limited by Power limit

Does the problem only happen if you run Furmark?

I will monitor the usage in Apex Legends and Dying Light (Only 2 games which max my gpu)

Will update you

So stupid of me.

I checked the clocks on Apex Legends and Yeah its really fine

(Its even more than the advertised clocks)

GPU is hitting around 1280 mhz.

Anyway Thanks for your help

As a side note, FurMark is considered a power virus (i.e., designed to draw as much power as possible) and GPU manufacturers implement protections against this (https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/discover/115902/using-furmark-and-other-stress-tests-with-geforce-graphics-cards/)

 

FurMark is also unrealistic. The conditions it puts on the card almost never happen in real-world use.
