1060 6gb overclocking

[Metro_boomin]

This is my first time doing any overclocking and I’m just wondering if I’m getting the best overclock possible. Here’s all of what I have so far: 

Msi GeForce Gtx 1060 6gb Gaming X

Core base mem base autoV 10224

Core +100 mem base autoV 10390

Core +140 mem base autoV unstable

Core +120 mem base 10%v unstable

Core +110 mem base 12%v unstable

Core +105 mem base 5%v unstable

Core +105 mem base autoV unstable

Core +100 mem base autoV 57 10224

Core +110 mem base aV FC unstable 

Core +103 mem base aV FC unstable

Core +100 mem base autoV 10423

Auto voltage fan curved

Core +100 mem +400 10740

Core +105 mem +400 unstable

Core +102 mem +400 10753

Core +110 mem +500 16%v unstable

Core +107 mem +500 16%v unstable

Core +102 mem +504 11%v 10831

Core +102 mem +575 11%v 10864

Core +102 mem +650 11%v unstable

Core +102 mem +650 14%v unstable

Core +102 mem +600 11%v unstable

Core +102 mem +590 13%v unstable

Core +102 mem +585 11%v 10814

Core +102 mem +600 11%v unstable

 

Current peak oc: Core 2076 (+102) memory 4590 (+585) memory bus 2295 voltage: +11% Custom fan curve on

Stability checks:

3D Mark Fire Strike top 34% (score:10864)

3D Mark Time Spy top 38% (score:4218)

Cpu POWERMAX

FurMark (score:5395)

(I used MSI Afterburner, tested using 3D Mark Firestrike, anytime I say autoV that’s just me saying I turned off voltage control and let afterburner do it) My scores were fine I think but I just want to know if I’m using the right voltages and stuff like that b/c I’ve seen people get like 2100mhz on their core. I understand the scilicon lottery and that I’d just like some suggestions. Also, it’s 1:51am where I am so I won’t be able to test anything untill tomorrow

Tried sliding up the power and thermal limits all the way up?

Play with the voltage frequency curve if you want to squeeze the most out of your card

[Cereal5]

For voltage, the slider goes all the way to 100% but that just is a descriptor of how high it will let the voltage go. Maximum voltage allowed on any stock pascal BIOS is 1.093v, so 100% would be 1.093, and 0% I believe is 1.050. You can slide that all the way up, but you're probably best just leaving it at 0 if you want a good balance of efficiency and frequency (though power draw difference will still be minimal). There's no harm in sliding the voltage all the way up.

• Keep power % at max, otherwise your card will throttle itself when it hits max power draw.
• Start with 100 core or so and go up by 20, then when unstable drop by 5 until stable
• Memory comes next, start with 300 and go up by 50, then drop by 10-20 until stable.

Like I said you can put voltage at whatever % you want, it won't hurt the card if you put it at 100%. Also, when posting overclocking results, post the actual core and memory speeds, not the offset you are using. Due to how GPU boost works, clock speeds will differ for every GPU even when using the same offsets.

Yep first thing I did

Thanks , power and temp are maxed.. idk if my card is just straight ass at overclocking cause I literally can’t get past 102 on firestrike. I hit an offset of 140 and that was stable for furmark, but the second I ran firestrike or fortnite or any of my other games, they would all crash after a minute or so of use. I probably just got a sub par overclocking gpu but it’s ok I grinded too hard for this mf to give up

 Or sure what that is or how to do that, could you link a video or something?

You can always up the voltage. 100% on the slider should allow you to get another 75-100 MHz, maybe less on a poor OCer lol.

Ahh thanks man

[LukeSavenije]

and a custom fan curve helps too, if you didn't already

Already done but thanks anyways

can't find any video I consider good enough, but there was a pinned thread about this in the forums.

LMAOO I AM UNABLE TO GO PAST A BOOST OF 1896 THIS IS B I G  E P I C
