GPU autoboost clock

[rascalz]

So i recently upgraded my pc a bit,(Gigabyte GTX 1050 2Gb OC,FX 6300,8gb ram,Gigabyte 970A-DS3P).

 

After i plugged in the pc and worked on it for a while,i noticed a weird sound at certain times like when opening a game or a program etc.

I downloaded Aorus to check temps clocks Voltages etc and see how things are working.

When i opened path of exile i saw the GPU core clock from around 130Mhz goes to 1700-1800MHz and i knew something was wrong cuz the base clock is at 1395Mhz in gaming mode.

I did not OC anything.i just plugged in the pc and played for a while.

So i called the Service department of the store i bought the parts from and asked what the hell is going on,they told me its all normal,the weird sound is the voltage passing through the capacitors and that this gen of gpu has a feature that autoboosts the clocks Mhz.

Are these infos correct or should i throw the case from the 3rd floor?

 

Screenshots while idle and while gaming.

 

Specs:

Gigabyte 970A-DS3P

Gigabyte GTX 1050 2GB OC

8Gb RAM Corsair XPM 1333MHz

500Gb HDD

450W PSU

 

P.S Sorry for my bad english not my native language.

That's your guaranteed base and boost clocks. The 1700+ clock is GPU Boost 3.0 in action. As long as power, thermals and volts are in a specific window then the GPU will keep boosting until it hits x power, y thermals or z volts. If you want to boost longer, increase the power and temp target. You're also able to max the volt slider since it won't do much harm since the volt limit is rather low for Pascal (1093mV) compared to Maxwell and Kepler (around 1212mV).

 

Alternatively if you decide to OC just keep increasing clock until it crashes and then back down a few MHz without touching the voltage slider. 

 

That sound is coil whine. It's normal and will go away with usage. It is annoying though. Some GPUs have it and some don't. Some high end GPUs have it and some don't.

No i am not going for further OC,actually i didnt think there'll be any kind of OC,i dont think my PSU can handle it cuz i dont have good cooling system,everything's stock.

Thanks for your reply pal
