Good GTX 970 OC?

[Guest]

I decided to overclock my 970 and after a few hours of stabiltiy tests, I've managed to squeeze and extra +180MHz from the core and +300 for the Memory without touching the voltage.

 

Is this good? I'd apprectiate some other people's results to compare, thanks!

yeah we all know what your 970 base clock is.

Offset doesn't mean anything if we don't know the base. And you can only change the voltage through BIOS flashing. Mine's running at 1400MHz with 1.1v.

Ok, here's everything you need to know with the core:default Clock: 1102-Clock: 1292-Boost: 1432

1432mhz is ok-ish for 970. 1500 is good, 1550 is great, 1600+ is the selected few.

Ok cool, I could push it all the way up to 1560 when I was adding voltage, but the temperatures were like 87C under max load.

I've always done +50 on core clock and +400 on memory for the 3 I've overclocked. Normally hit around 1500 mhz on core clock

Ok, I've managed to stabilise myself at 1520 w/ +70 mV
