Hello guys,

 

Im really sceptical about if its true that this clock speed change is real.

Its the exact same card from the same brand(Asus strix) and it saves me 80 euro's.

The boxes are also Identical on the image

Sku codes:

mhz1506: 90YV09N2-M0NA00

mhz1657: 90YV09N0-M0NA00

 

Does somebody know if this legitimate makes a difference?

 

The for helping me,

Luuk Bosma

Its just a factory overclock.

 

It will make a difference in games, but you can overclock the card yourself and save the 80 euro's

The 1,657GHz is much better!

 

edit: Between those, the 1657MHz is overclocked from the factory. I, myself, don't like to overclock every GPU as I change cards quite frequently so those factory OC's are preferable to me.

And that overclock won't damage the card?

It doesn't matter because of GPU boost 3.0

GPU Boost only puts my 1070 to 1900. I have to OC it to get to 2100.

"Only" 300MHz above advertised boost clock

If the stock voltage curve is set to 1900MHz at 1.062V it doesn't matter how much cool the card is, it won't clock on its own above that.

The only thing you gain from better cooling is that the card wont downclock from its peak because of good temperatures.

Well, if you set all of this the card will still peak at 1900MHz because just by increasing voltage you're not adjusting the curve.

If stock 1.062V tops at 1900MHz, without manual adjustments to clock speed, all other voltage steps above 1.062V will top at 1900MHz, the curve will be just a straight line.

The card will then never take advantage of the extra voltage and power limit.
