RX 580 8GB 1505Mhz and climbing

[WubbyLubbs]

I've been steadily working up my overclock on my RX 580, but it's to the point where I'm hitting 1505mhz on the core with memory clocked at 2250Mhz and it still seems stable. I've left Unigine Valley Benchmark running for 2 hours now at high detail and 1920x1080 resolution with this overclock and it was still running fine when I came back just now to check. My max temps during the benchmark never exceeds 70* and my fan curve doesn't even set itself to 100% until 75*.

 

After reading other peoples overclocks on 580s I was expecting to max around 1480Mhz.

 

Is there any other ways I should use to verify that I am indeed still stable? My current method is to set my overclock on the card with MSI Afterburner and then run Unigine Valley for at least 30mins each time I adjust it. It just seems strange that it'd still be stable at 1505Mhz.

Try unigine superposition, it is much more taxing on the gpu than valley.

 

To get stresstesting for free on there choose "game", and then cinematic on the top left corner.

Heaven isn't the best. Gaming and actual use is the best. I've had overclocks run in Heaven for 5-6 hours, and a few firestrike runs and it crashes within 10 minutes in bf1

i think it was steve form GN that did a video about this recently, just because you can doesn't mean you should do it, you'll get errors. But if all seems ok go for it.

I'm downloading Unigine Superpostition now, so hopefully, that'll give me more accurate tell on if it's stable or not.

Can you possibly find me a link to the video? I was sitting here wondering to myself on whether I should push it as far as it can go comfortably, or if there was a point that the benefits per FPS are smaller than the upped voltage make it worth.
