GPU Boost 3

I've noticed in GPUZ that temperature limits on same cards but different manufacturers are different.

My 1070m is set to its maximum - 91C. GPU boost 3 is always pushing it to its maximum. Card is working fine, I get boost up to 1824 on core, but fans are driving me crazy!

Is there any way to make changes to that value, since its adjustable? Looks like my card is not limitted by pwr or vrel, goes to its temperature limit...

MSI afterburner, you can also adjust the fan curve.

This was main question, how? :)

Afterburner is what I use, but even those from other brands (EVGA has PrecisionX for example) have this function

That's just going to make it run hotter and throttle like a SOB.

Naw it is already hitting it's limit, it will thermal throttle from there. (as in reduce clock speed) to stay cool. Reducing power will end the same way, except that in light applications and for short periods of time it will be able to run full tilt, allowing the computer to run and feel faster in every day use.

Try undervolting. CTRL + F on the main Afterburner screen to pull up your curve. Start at 850mv and move the point up to 1800MHz, and make the rest of the curve to the right of the 850mv point flat and apply.

 

The curve should look something like this when you're done.

Good point, that should be limiting by vrel before thrm. I'll try :)
