Thank you for this! I hate to mention coil whine, but the undervolting tutorial helped me reduce coil whine drastically and barely affected my performance in red dead redemption 2.
@@wardeagle1015 I used the same utility in the video, gpu tweak 3, and I just dropped the power target by % increments of 5 down to about 70 and ran a fur mark 1440p benchmark each time, recording the data in notes and noting coil whine volume differences. He’s right, the voltage drop off does not linear correlate to performance. It’s interesting and I’d like to play with it more later. For now, I settled on 85% power and turned all settings in read dead from ultra to high, and this brought my coil whine within the sound threshold of my quiet fans. I could drop more power and reduce the threshold more, but that’s all took me about an hour and a half so I was fine with the progress I had made last evening. My performance loss at 85% power is only 2-3% of fps - genuinely negligible (also saves 15% of power which is impressive). To be honest I’m still pretty disappointed that my card needs this done when I spent $1000 on it, and spent more money on high end peripherals throughout my build to try and get an ultra quiet machine. Everything is quiet except for my $1000 gpu - disappointing, for sure. I think most people use afterburner for gpu overclocking, undergoing and tuning, but I wanted to stick with Asus’ brand software since it does exist.
@ oh - I forgot to mention I also ran RDR2 while playing with gpu power. I could pause the game, change power draw, then restart it and listen to the differences in the whine. It does seem like I could get less coil whine if I went below 80, but I do start seeing some more noticeable performance drop off at that point. I should also mention I use nvidia app to lock fps across all games at 90%. So really it was a combination of nvidia fps limiting, gpu undervolting, and taking the edge of red dead’s high end settings.
I tried this on my ASUS Tuff RTX4080 Super - extremely conservatively though - only 5% more for voltage and power. I did not need the speed but because I could see from this video that even the OC scanner tool on its own could potentially reduce the voltage if it could change the VF curve favourably. Well it sure did - quite significantly. I had to do a double take the difference was so pronounced. In the new curve, once above around 2000, the voltages progressively dropped versus the standard curve to be as much as 0.2 of a volt lower at the higher end (where the card would generally spend most of its time in intense gaming). The new curve (and in my subsequent testing) showed it hitting 2,910 at only just over 1 volt whereas the stock curve does not even go to that speed at all (the highest being 2865 at just over 1.2 volts). I thought this result was too good to be true but with subsequent benchmark testing and voltage monitoring, it surely was. Quite astonishing that there is such a large difference between the stock curve and the "OC" curve (I hesitate to call it that since it really is far more akin to an undervolt than an overclock in my case). The only things that concerned me slightly was that it overclocks the memory as well although in my testing you can turn the memory back down to the stock speed without losing the new VF curve though the increased memory speed does certainly add speed. I am not sure that I am a fan of that Furmark though. It seems to torture a card unrealistically since there is no 3D application in the real world that remotely pushes a card that hard. It is the equivalent of buying a new car and driving it at 6,000 RPM for 1,000 kilometres....I did use it but I couldn't bear to watch it or listen to the fans going crazy like a banshee. I decided to use an alternative stress test that realistically mimics real world gaming usage - pushing it to the absolute max probably 60% of the time and the other 40% perhaps 100 - 400 below maximum.
Hello, i applied OC mode and increased the Power target to the max on my RTX 4060. If i close the application will these settings still stay in effect, or i have to open the app every time i boot up my pc in order for the gpu to stay in OC mode with the maxed out power target?
What do u think guys about i have 4070 super and this setup are still safe? Power Target, Gpu Voltage and GPU Temp Target max, GPU Boost Clock +250 Mhz, Memory Clock + 2000 Mhz. Fans working on auto mod. Thanks!
I just switched from AMD to an Asus TUF 4090 OC and I loved the AMD Adrenalin software compared to the Nvidia software. Everyone recommended MSIAB to me but I wasn't very happy with it. There were soooo many settings that i was overwhelmed. I'm interested in trying out GPU tweak.
The sad story is that GPU Tweak III doesn't work as well as the MSI After Burner. And the MSI After Burner cannot control the fans as you like so you end up with MSI After Burner + Fan Control and uninstall this garbage ;)
@laggmonstret I was already using Fan Control, which I love, and actually ended up going back to MSI Afterburner. I didn't mind Tweak for OC and UV, but I couldn't get an OSD hotkey to work.
@@laggmonstret i get a rtx 4080 super with 3 fans.. but fan control shows and control only 2 of them? And you would say I should undervolt here with tweak but use then afterburner?
@@DieTabbi Same for me. The side fans are controlled together and the center by itself. So it shows up as only 2 fans, you have to try and stop 1 and see what # is what fan(s) :D
It really bothers me that he says you are not going to see anything but the spinning wheel that is not really true. For those of you who don’t know you can open the monitor and watch the bar graph go by as the OC scanner is running like I did and what is nice about it as you can seewhat voltage and percentage the power is when your GU clock and voltage are hitting certain numbers. This way I was able to see that my GPU clock only needs 44% power to run at 2880 for instance or 45% power to run it 2900. I suggest you all try the same this way you know where to drag your sliders down.
Should I be able to crank everything up with no issues ? Following the steps in this video I was able to max my GPU boost clock all the way to max (2871 MHz) with no crash! Default is 2610 MHz.

I have the same card. I was astonished at what the OC scanner came up with though I was very conservative, only upping the power and voltage by 5%. The new curve was identical to the old one up to about 2000 but beyond that the new curve had progressively lower voltages than the stock curve to the point where the difference at the top end was a massive 0.2 volts. It also tops out now at 2,940. I might suggest mucking around a bit more with those power and percentage sliders since I actually got worse results at higher settings. My guess is that pushing it harder with those two sliders increases the heat to the point where the thermal throttling comes into play whereas it doesn't with my conservative 5% settings. Additionally, I suspect the thermal throttling is based on the hot spot temps rather than the standard "measured" temps since my hotspot with that FurMark thingy hit about 83 degrees with those 5% settings - just at the point where the stock thermal limit is set (I did increase that to 88 degrees though when using the OC scanner but in FurMark testing it maxed out at 83).
@@jonathanparle8429 I'll probably play around with it some more. It's just been kicking butt the way it is lol. When I use GPU tweak 3 the "stock" OC mode on the card is 106% power target , 2640 GPU boost clock, 23002 memory clock. This is all my first time playing with something like this so to be honest I basically have no idea what I'm doing 🤣 just pushing stuff till it tells me "no sir stop it" 🤣
This crap program simply doesn't work, I try to use the same voltage curve that I use in MSI Afterburner and it simply doesn't work, either it plays above or below 15MHz and it becomes annoying to mess with it.
The OC scanner shound not work if the Radeon Software Auto OC cant be overlocked a same GPU. If we take account for the know attack vectors for the servers etc nothing new about. The on screen display or OSD a great feature if we take acount for the monitoring this can be helpfull even for a users with a default clock settings. The external fan callibration not in any case much helpfull becase without an installed GPU Tweak software the Radeon software can hadle the GPU temperatures or a 3D titles with less temperatures than 68c or without a needs for the external use of the cooling. After the installed GPU Tweak software probaly becase of the callibration or know vulnerabilitys or attack vectors the GPU temperature become increased or the same game on the same settings become require the external fan becase the GPU succeeded the 68c or more. The web application firewall or microsoft intune management for the GPU Tweak can change a much on the mentioned hoever disabling the autorun for the startup application can be more helpfull.
@@MrFaleh1129 Except the Strix cooler on the 4080 / 4090 is the most silent one from stock (or was on release at least) and I picked it due to being the best back then. Not sure how the TUF version (that seems to be ASUS only available option for AMD 7900 XTX?) is though. But with that said, my country didn't have the Founders Edition but Nvidia added it later down the road so hopefully I can just go for that next time if not AMD got something nice up their sleeve ;)

A question. the nvida overcloking panel how do you have to leave it, set it if you want to use gpu tweker 3?

Is it safe to decrease gpu power limit?no instability issues?great way to lower temps during summer!
Yeah but then you won't get as many fps in games.
So, if I understand, I can also just undervolt my 4070ti, without overclock it, and still gains some performances?
