Overclocking...

[AllPlatformGamer]

Hello Forum,

 

I was wondering on a few details I need before I attepmt to overclock my Graphics Card.

 

My Graphics Card (Pretty Bad): AMD Radeon HD 8570D

 

What would be a safe voltage?

 

&

 

What would be a good place to start the overclocks?

 

 

If anybody could give me some tips and help with overclocking i would greatly appreciate it, as this is my first time doing it.

I have a tutorial on how to do it but if anybody can recoomend me on or something of sorts please do!

 

 

Overclocking With: MSI Burner

System Info: GPU-Z

Benchmarking: Heaven Benchmark

 

Also are these the correct softwares?

 

 

Thanks in advance!

You have the correct software but to be honest man you really shouldn't overclock that gpu. It is a low end gpu and isn't built even slightly for overclocking. You made be able to squeeze like 100Mhz out of it on the core and maybe 100 mhz on the memory which would translate into literally like 2fps in most games and that is on a good day. It just isn't worth the headache.

 

Now if you are just overclocking for fun and want to see how far you can push it that is another story but I don't recommend a daily overclock on that card.

I can personally recommend the R9 280 (7950 rebadge) as my MSi twin frozr 7950 overclocked by 150Mhz on the core and 300Mhz on the memory which gave me a solid 10-15fps improvement. I highly recommend the MSi gaming r9 280 if it is available to you.
