Thing is im running my specs oc like this all the time no temps issues liquid metal on cpu and gpu thermal pad changed too cpu delid.

@Brass_01Almost caught up to your 1060!

after repaste i got a 125pt higher score, now I'm above your 1060  

going to update drivers and test again

(19.4.3->19.9.3)

 I only need to try again.

Sorry to break it to ya pal...did it two times about the same your 570 is as good as the 1060 im at my limits.

Here latest not sure can go higher because I set the oc higher on the gpu core and mem then as it goes on the gpu core clock goes from 2126 to 2114 to 2100 stable at the end...

If you're getting Core clock drop as it runs, check GPU-Z and see what's holding it. My 980 Ti would down-clock because of TDP was like 250W or something around there. I made a BIOS change and set it to 450W max (not that it ever gets that high but leaving lots of headroom) and it hold whatever clock I throw at it without dropping.

This is what I can give you to see if the setting you talk about can be found but not yet change?

ARGH!

1465 core, 2060 mem w/ +25% power and +25mv mem. Going to post this on r/overclocking, I think its one of the best 570s.

Wep I bet so at those scores!

Check GPU-Z where it says "PerfCap Reason" when you stress the GPU and notice the down-clock. If you see that it says "Pwr" that means the card it capping itself because it wants more Watts than the BIOS is allowing it to have. If this is the problem, most of the time it's as simple as reflashing a BIOS with a higher total power draw so the card can run at higher clocks without it running out of power.

1 point!!!

EDIT: can't push it any farther, looks like this is the end of the road. I'm doing Time Spy now, goal is 4500.

[R6_Arel]

Well this is it. I think this is as far as my card will go. At this point if I went any further it would crash or artifacts would take over my screen. These (I think) are my final scores.

For some reason, the OC settings that worked for 1080p would crash at 4K. Either way I managed to beat my last 4K score and take best 980 Ti 4K score by 186 points. Sadly I couldn't come close to the best 1080p scores other 980 Ti cards managed to get but I fought my way up and wouldn't stop until I beat someone's GTX 1080 score of 4177 and I'm more than happy with what I achieved with a 980 Ti.

 

EVGA 980 Ti SC with custom BIOS on XSPC water block.

i5 4690K OC 4.5GHz at 1.17xV on same water loop as GPU.

 

[ddennis002]

Scores are updated!

[BTGbullseye]

Well, Superposition is being temperamental... I got a score of 5576, but the screenshot was corrupted for some reason. After that, the benchmark decided to just crash all the time instead of completing, despite the stable-in-everything-else overclock. This is one of my overclocks that actually completed.

[EDIT] Decided to run a few more times, see if I could do better. I could, just barely. (and this time I remembered to include my RAM settings!)

Better score.

But I run a gtx 1060 pascal card as you know already so how I can mod my bios if I extracted with gpu-z ? perf cap reason for my gpu is Vrel.

[Mark Kaine]

Heh,  I'm getting the same Vrel in pretty much anything if I OC my 1060

 

Is there any way to get rid of that or up the limit somehow, before I submit a result? 

 

Current OC:

 

+100 core voltage 

+120 core clock 

+900 memory clock 

 

Temps are ok,  around 65C usually

Your at max reliable voltage you can lower your core clock but the card is pretty much telling you it cannot boost any higher because your at your core voltage limit. I’m pretty sure 10x cards are voltage locked so if your stable let it run.

Yeah   sure I'm asking how to circumvent this lock. I see tests in 3d mark where people with pretty much the same setup get 100-150mhz more... 

So I'm guessing there's some tricks!

 

and well tbh,  while it does say that... I haven't actually crashed yet with these settings (except one game,  see below),  I think I could put some more memory clock at least - the problem is MHW is really finicky about OCs,  I can run any game or benchmark with these settings,  except MH tends to crash occasionally so I'm wary to apply more. 

 

not even always with the same error,  but I just know it's the overclock, simply because it happens more often when I go like about +500 for memory clock. 

 

Well anyways,  I'm just curious how some people get seemingly way better OCs - I do have the feeling my card is pretty good, since it barely crashes,  even less since I have the R 3600

It would help to know what card you have and a screen grab of gpuz wouldn’t hurt.

When under load what is your gpu clock hitting after it settles in?

Between 2062 and 2076,  depends on what is running. 

 

 

 

Here's my Superposition entry :

 

 

Not so great I guess,  I have Steam and GFE Shadow Play running though (realistic environment ;))

 

MSI 1060 6GB Gaming X

 

AB settings:

 

Core Voltage +100%

Power limit 108%

Temp limit 92C

Core clock +120

Memory clock +900

The trick with pascal cards is typically to make sure the card isn’t even getting close to any of its limits. This means raising the power budget (or even doing a shunt mod), and keeping the GPU very cool, as in below 60 degrees, as believe it or not the card will actually start throttligg at around that temperature.

Oh I see,  yeah that makes sense,  I've noticed something like that too - but wasn't sure. 

 

So it may be that people with much better overclocks use water cooling perhaps,   because this card really doesn't get overly hot - 72C or so is the highest I got it and usually it just sits slightly above 60C in most games.

Not sure if still valid but...
