3070 clock?

[QuantumPlutonian12]

Hello people. I don't think this is that major but I just wanted to post because I think this is cool.

Relevant info:

GPU: Gigabyte Auros 3070 Master

two 140mm fans intake (front)

three 120mm fans exhaust (top and rear)

Boost clock (advertised): 1845mhz

 

So basically, I adjusted some fan curves on my gpu and got 2ghz boost clock when playing Holdfast: Nations at War. It was sitting at around 65C ish. No overclock, no nothing. I just thought it was cool. What is the largest clock you've ever seen without an overclock on your card?

 

Edit: I should add it sits around 1850-1900mhz usually. Did I win the silicon lottery or is it just boosting as high as it can? I haven't owned a retail gpu that I could monitor this well before.

No, just its normal to boost higher than advertised

I thought so, but I still just found it cool. Ty for responding

the boost clock thing is only meant as a minimum "boost"... not every chip is the same so they need to do this to have a sort of guaranteed boost behavior...it also highly depends on temps.

Aaaand, this is more like it.

 

FYI I undervolted my 3070, its at 2010-2040 mhz in most games and doesn't clock down usually either...

 

Again,  depends mostly on temps, less voltage = lower temps = higher boost
