GPU 980 Ti ( POWER PHASE )

[Dabasepc]

can someone help me understand the power phase? whats the diffrenece between 6+2 and 14+3 ???

more powerphase=better power delivery=better overclocking 

 

the specific numbers? i have no idea

The more power a GPU needs to draw the more stressed the Power Delivery for a GPU becomes. If you have more phases the better they will handle the power draw demand when overclocking.

It's got more power phases, which are the separate power managment systems... more generally means better. Cleaner power delivery results in higher overclocking to an extent.

you can overvolt the card more for higher clock speeds

this will only be useful to you if you load a custom BIOS to allow you to increase the voltage that much

When manufacturers use stuff like 14+3, the first value refers to the number of phases dedicated to the GPU. The second value refers to the number of phases dedicated to the GPU. Normally, the number of chokes/inductors is proportional to the number of power phases present.

Just found this:

 

" Technically, dividing the incoming current through seperate switches/phases reduces heat and voltage drops... So, the more converters (or phases) then, theoretically, the cleaner the input power since you have incoming power more times per cycle -less opportunity for current drop between discharges. "

Right. The more phases, the more likely you'll be able to sustain voltages because the phases are constantly taking turns delivering current - only one power phase works at a time. If you want to know how often each work, divide 100% by the number of phases you have.
