Dell Inspiron Gaming 7567 1050 Ti Overclocking

[Spoonablehippo]

As per the title really!

Got a Dell Inspiron 7000 Gaming laptop with a 1050 Ti and want to overclock it but not sure what figures to start off with?
In afterburner the only adjustable options are core & mem clocks.
Thermal wise at stock the GPU gets to around 65c when pushed hard running furmark, so definitely got some thermal headroom to play with!

EDIT: Linus reviewd it here:

Just slowly bump up the core clock, like ay other gpu

[Jurrunio]

Not sure if mobile GPUs got max core clock offset set to 135MHz like my 950M? I remember maxing out the core no problem, but over-doing the memory clock crashed it

so any results to share..im geting my hands on it soon..So want to OC it for sure to get max performance while gaming..

CAn we under volt the cpu and oc the GPU at the same time?

no. only cpu is undervolt capable. 

[btej200bc]

so my laptop arrived and started tweaking the cpu and gpu for optimum performance..
firstly the thermals on this laptop are insanely good..max cpu temp under syntheic stress is at 84 C..
So i under volted the cpu using XTU by -110mv..got the max temps reduced to 72 C..
Then the GPU..Using MSI afterburner tried OC..so after all tests i realized that the gpu bios has a temperature performance limiting value at 73-74 C...
So max OC attainable on GPU Clock was (1650 - 1690 mhz ) and memory clock stable OC to 2075mhz...
If the temp limit can be modified to 85 C from the existing 73 C...then we can definitely attain more performance for gaming..

So a few things you can do. Stop using XTU. start using Throttlestop. More control. Better UI.

Secondly, go a little more aggressive on the undervolting. Tweak the settings on TS (Throttlestop) to get a stable value.

 

Thirdly, use nvidia inspector to OC the GPU. I think that's the go-to for laptops. Afterburner is fine too. 

 

Fourth, pascal actually starts a dynamic throttle when it's GPU goes past 55C or something stupidly low. You would need to open up and repaste it with liquid metal to get close to those values

 

Fifth, repasting doesn't void warranty. not for dell and not in NA. As long as you don't break something.

 

Best of luck with the tuning of your machines. (Also beyond just CPU and GPU tuning, alot of tuning can go into just making Windows 10 usable). 

This is a bit old but I used to use Phoniex's guide: http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/nbr-windows-10-clean-installation-guide.781178/

 

This is for much more advanced users: http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/windows-10-tweaks-and-fixes-index-post-1.779394/

Hey!

Sorry, not been on the forum for a while.

 

What do you think of the laptop? I'm very happy with mine, really well built, good looking and as you say great thermals :-)

Only thing I noticed was that is has a single 16GB stick of RAM (with 1 x empty slot) so runs in single channel mode! Would it be beneficial to sell that and get 2 x 8GB sticks for dual channel?

 

I never really tried overclocking, I've mainly been playing Elite Dangerous which runs on ultra settings at 60fps with no problems, so haven't seen the need just yet lol

 

I want to give it a go though. What do you actually increase the core/mem clocks by to get the figures you quoted?

Laptop is gud with ips panel..lg made..and for OC gpu +150 to170 on core clock,and +600 to 750 on memory clock..but as said due to temperature cap..the max clock it reaches during gaming is till under 1650 -1750 on core and memory is also locked at 2075 maximum..tried dishonoured 2..have been waiting to play it from so long..gud 40-45 fps at ultra modified settings..60 at high..
And as far as ram goes i have 2x8gb in dual channel...if u don't want to upgrade to 32 gb ,then ya 2x8 gb sticks will be beneficial for games and software's..

Thanks! How do you know if its an ips panel? I think mines the TN panel!?

If your colors look like shit, and you bought it more than a month ago, then it is probably the TN panel.

Can any one tell if i enable Speed shift , should disable speed step on Throttlestop?

Doesn't matter. Those functions were for old CPUs. Theres a TS guide on Notebookcheck. Google for it.

I think he meant UNDERVOLT the CPU and in the same time to OVERCLOCK the GPU (not to undervolt both the CPU and the GPU - if I guessed right the way you understood)

yes i went through it. It said speedshift is more efficient than speedstep, and that speed shift is being disabled on latest dell laptops with kabylake chips and we should enable it.But it dint specify if its okay to have both enabled. Rite now i manually enabled speed shift and disabled speed step. Under-volted  cpu by -139 mv and have no problem, ran prime 95 for 30 min.

hey i want to undervolt my 7567 to, but what software should i use?
i have tried XTU and at some point it keep turning back the core offset value to default

throttlestop

[Imglidinhere]

I would undervolt my i5 if it was allowed... but oh well. ^^; Temps never break 75*C unless I'm careless and have the thing on my lap or something.

[Nevaran]

Ive just tested mine with a +135 on GPU and +750 on the memory, all seems to work well- though in the game i tested (MWO) only the memory boost seemed to have made a difference by about 10 fps(from 49 to 58~ for example)

 

PS> though the temps on the CPU became 82C for a short time, and averaging 76-78C - that might be because of other reasons but im just pointing it out in case its because of the GPU boost

 

[Dimondminer11]

I have an Inspiron 15 7000 gaming 7567 from November 2017 and I was able to overclock the GPU to 1835mhz with the mem overclocked to 3846mhz. All I really need now is a decently sized m.2 ssd and ill be set (and maybe another 8gb stick of ram)
