2070 super overclocks

[NicholasNicholasNicholas]

What is the average overclock for a 2070 super? Mine can only reach 1995/2010. I think that is pretty bad, right?

For the GPU core? Average is like 2050-2080MHz, so yeah your sample is a bit behind. It depends on the board and cooler though, so if your card is badly cooled with reference PCB, then expect to do worse

Gigabyte windforce. it never goes above 65c

post screen shot of your settings in Afterburner, maybe you're doing something wrong idk. 

 

that said, it's close to what seems to be achievable on average, 30hz give or take...

With this +130 CPU Clock and no added voltage, we managed to push the clock speed up to around 2040MHz very consistently.  It actually hit a maximum of 2085MHz, but then quickly goes down to the stable frequency.

If i try to go any higher it is stable in rasterization but minecraft rtx will turn black and glitch out, though strangely enough i can still move and hear sounds when i break blocks

ok, honestly I wouldn't try with the Voltage curve for now... it's a bit delicate, save it so you could go back to it later, but for now I'd reset everything and try something like this. 

 

 

Also note temp and power limit are set to max - that's of utter importance (leave voltage alone for now) otherwise the card won't boost properly, even if it may never ax hit the max.

 

 

I'd maybe try something like 110 core / 600 memory for a start. 

 

and use something like uningine heaven to test, using a game to test an oc isn't ideal... 

 

if you get it stable in heaven you have a baseline and can tweak it further for certain applications, like minecraft.

i have tried with max power limit, however for daily use i keep it at 107 because my psu isnt great. my gpu core is stable in unigine until +135 on the core, however for minecraft rtx i get that bug any time i try to go over +100 on the gpu.

well that's likely the limit then, I mean you asked for average, you won't reach average if you don't max out power and temp limits, it's just how GPU boost works, even if it may never reach max temp or max power... 

also its possible that game just doesn't like too high OCs, it happens...

that was with +118 (the max) on the power limit unfortunately
