i have a zotac amp 1080, i cant even get 2050mhz, is that an unlucky dip?

arent people with fe's getting like 2100+?

Pascal scales like shit. So if you're in the upper 1900s you're going to see the same performance as with 2050. Maybe one frame per second. Chill

Basically yes, they don't go much over 2100 either way though, but yes less than 2050 isn't a great OC, not that 50mhz matters much since that is only about a 2% difference

the 1070 is the one that seems to scale better, then again,  we had this story with the 970 and 980 ti.

 

not that im bothered like :P.

Jay2Cents has the same issue with this card.

I didn't say "simmer your ass down", I said chill  

 

You definitely didn't grab a golden card but if it was mine Id still be happy. At the moment I see 2GHz for The 1080 as what 1.5GHz was to a 980ti. I run my 980ti daily at 1440MHz and beat some of the benchmarks I see for 1070s overclocked. Worry more about performance than epeen numbers like overclocking.

i managaed to get 2050, with gpu max volt at 40%.

Well I did get 2136MHz with my GTX 1070 Founders Edition, but it was a bit unstable.

Stable for me was 2101MHz.

But difference in benchmarks between 2101 and 2000 is like 1%, if even that.

For some reason those cards aren't scaling well at higher clocks.

 

So if you have 2050 stable, it's just fine. 2100 Would give you maybe 1fps more.

 

Anyway, I sent back my card because it had coil whine at high load. So we will see how much I can OC next card  

For me, I'm just glad if it goes to 2000MHz and stay 100% stable there. Those 1-2 fps more aint worth the strugle getting to 2100MHz in my opinion.

How bad was the coil whine? I had it with my 970s but only on farcry loading screen where the fps was like 10 gazillion.
