Can't overclock laptop memory

psmasterrace1332 · July 2, 2021

Hello! I have a new laptop, a ROG Strix g15 with a 3060 and 5900hx. I was able to get noticle increases in performance in games to hit a more stable 144 fps by overclocking the vram. After some updates to both the bios and armory crate (I can't find another fan control option, So I have to use armory crate, and the profiles are nice to switch from web browsing to intense gaming). Anyways, not when I try to increase the vram frequency in both EVGA x1 and afterburner I cannot push it past 300. It has always been a max of 300 in armory crate, but I was able to use afterburner to push it a bit further (I think it used to go +2000). Any way I can change versions in armory crate or do something to regain control of my laptop again? Thanks!

...You definitely didnt press apply there.

If you want to recover from a crap GPU profile, you can go to safe mode and uninstall all of the overclocking app. Also, just stick to 1 app for the sake of your own sanity as you figure out which profile is active, preferably the one thats made for the laptop in case of mobile.
