A small comment on the power limits of different GPUs - they vary greatly by brand and model, and aren't always easy to find out - so if you are buying a card with the intention to heavily overclock, do your research on its overclocking potential to avoid nasty surprises! This in particular is the waifu's card and will be likely run at stock - so doesn't matter much.
Good video my man. Helpful for getting a little performance boost. Actually just found out about the oc scanner a couple weeks ago... Didn't know it was there this whole time.
I know that this was a joke, but I wouldn't recommend overclocking a laptop. The only thing it's going to do is increase the temperature with little to no performance increase. In a worst case scenario it's going to severely shorten it's lifespan. Hope you're not actually overclocking your laptop. :)
great video and great description of the software i managed my first attempt at overclocking as i have always been really cautious about damaging my card but using your guide on my new Asus strix advanced edition 2080 super set power level and voltage to max and i just used the oc scanner for my core clock it gave me +100 and i boosted my memory clock to 1200mhz dont want to risk any higher as dont want to mess with it to much, left my fan curve on auto getting decent temps in the 60's whilst gaming in 4k so cannot complain thanks for the video
Thanks! And I do agree it was a bit on the long winded side - I actually made a retake on this video a couple months back, with the goal of making it a bit shorter (and with better audio). This one still seems to get most of the views though :p
Excuse me but you still didnt show the exact procedure step by step how we overclock! Ok we saw the curve. Then what? what we do with the Core clock slide? How we set extra voltage? Is this automated and how I know that? Is my settings saved when I boot or I need to do it again?
If I save the profile and close the Afterburner after the OC scan will the GPU still retain the new settings, or do I need to leave Afterburner open or minimized? Thanks for the tutorial.
You do need to have it running, but you can just have it minimized in the corner, you dont even need to have the window open. I personally just have it auto-start along with windows and forget about it. Haven't touched it in weeks now :)
It was an old headset, every time I touched the wire it would do that. Sadly I only noticed it some weeks after uploading. Newer videos with my new mic should be fine now, plus I started double checking the audio for spikes... Apologies for poor sound in this one either way, maybe I'll redo it some time!
No problem, I'm always open to improving my videos, and it does help if people tell me what's wrong. Plus I always try to engage with the people watching my videos :)
Apologies, my mic levels seem to go full crazy when I touch the wire in a certain way. Sadly this video happened before I knew that, so I wasn't watching out for it. Been keeping an eye on it in the more recent videos!
Some people are crazy stupid, I watched the whole thing and your mic and sound were perfectly fine. After all were watching a personally made RUclips video not network television.
It's through wallpaper engine, a small program on Steam, has a few thousand animated wallpapers to choose from 😉 think i did a small video on it a while back!
You can't automatically tested it sadly, it has to be in the good old manual overclocking way. I'd say start at +500 and go up 50 or 100 at a time, trying it out on a game or benchmark each time to see if it's stable. My memory ended up at around +1000, but that depends a lot on each card of course
@@AtticPCGuy last question. Whats more importantbinnterms of fps memory clock or core clock and xan i keep fans on auto? Everyone else seems to say to crank them up. thank you for your quick response. Wish you lots of luck with you channel your doing a great job.
Both are important, though core clock maybe a bit more. But you can overclock both, you dont have to choose one or the other :) I'd do the core, and if it's stable, then do the memory. As for the fans... Unless you have a very high end GPU running at high resolution and settings, I'd just leave it on auto. GPU fans are probably the loudest part of the PC, having them on full blast every time would drive you crazy. Fan curves and temperatures only start being an issue when you get to 2080/2080ti levels. Even at 100% load my 1660ti overclocked never goes over the 60 C's, and you only really need to worry at 75-80 :)
@@AtticPCGuy my 2070s is getting to a peak of 79. It's a founder edition though. I'm actually going to be building a loop next week so that should sort that out. Will I be able to overclock further or does this auto overclocker mostly just get limited by power and voltage rather than temps?
@@ryangerman91 You most likely will achieve a better result overclocking yourself. This tool tries to be more on the side of caution to prevent causing issues for people who might use it and not know how to solve them; so there's usually better results if you fine-tune it yourself!
I have a rtx 2060 MSI laptop and I can only change the core clock and memory clock, it won’t let me change anything else but the settings. Please help, thanks
Hmm ... scan takes 25-30 min and I have no test button available. It just gives me Revert instead of test. After the scan, it states unstable results. Does anybody know what's going wrong?
@Attic PC Guy So the MSI OC Scanner won't work for the MSI GeForce GTX 980 Ti? If it doesn't work for that card is there a third party OC Scanner out there that can overclock the 980 Ti automatically without me attempting to do it manually?
The only other OC software I've tried is EVGA Precision X, it's not bad, but Afterburner is definitely the best one out there. I don't remember the EVGA one having an Auto tool like that, but I haven't checked it in some time. I'd suggest giving it a go at manual overclocking - it's not very difficult, and it's nearly impossible to do any damage to your card. Just don't set Afterburner to automatically start with windows until you're sure the OC is stable so you'll always be fine
@@AtticPCGuy I already spent some time tweaking around in MSI Afterburner to get a stable manual overclock for my 980Ti and was somewhat successful but, I kept getting these weird reddish flashes, artifacting effects while playing games so I gave up on manual overclocking. I got excited when I found out MSI afterburner had the OC scanning feature which I wasn't aware of but, the excitement quickly wore out after I found out it won't work for my older 980Ti. I was hoping you knew of some other software out there that I could use to overclock this card automatically though.
@@JAMSTUBE Ah, sorry, Afterburner's the only one I'm aware of :/ There could be some I haven't heard of, since I'm not exactly a professional myself, but I don't think so. Those artifacts you mention are pretty typical signs of an overclock being unstable / pushed a bit too far, but not far enough to full-on crash, though. I'd try to take those settings, dial them down a little bit, and see how it does. It's always a bit of trial and error with overclocking. It might take a bit of time to get right, but it's always a few extra fps for free I suppose!
For the sake of the video I probably should; in this specific case... I knew my 1660ti would never reach temp limits before running into the power limit for the card. It always tops off at low-mid 60's in my case. But that's a good point for higher end cards!
Can I somehow remove all the settings and return the video card to its previous state? I accidentally clicked on a scan but didn't continue it, can my video card break because of this? Will the return settings button help me with this?
The return settings , then pressing apply, will set the card back to default! Either that or just closing afterburner then restarting will do the trick. The card doesn't actually save any settings, if afterburner isn't running, it'll be running at default.
Hello I am using a Dell XPS 15 9560 laptop and i am trying to change Core voltage(CV), Power Limit(PL) and Temperature Limit(TL) to use OC Scanner. I have unlocked voltage control and voltage monitoring in setings, but I cant change CV, PL, TL, so i used the scanner with default settings. Will this cause any trouble?
You should be fine! It just means you probably won't be able to get a huge improvement out of it, but hey - no matter how little, it's a free performance gain. Laptops are just a bit more limited than desktops in terms of overclocking due to battery life and cooling :)
@@AtticPCGuy oh cool . thank you for the reply and thanks for posting such a great video. It made life easy for me. im gonna do some thermal pasting in the next week or so and see how my temps check out. Thanks again
My 1660ti MSI Gaming X twin frozr.... Has a power limit of 107...so i guess some cards have a higher limit maybe, im very suprised that yours only goes too 100 which i always thought was stock totally. Anyway...i have used the OC scanner and i get an average of 79mhz boost overclock which i believe is pretty weak... if i manually overclock i get like 150 on the core and 1000+ on the memory.
Mine is a Ventus XS; each of the different models might have slight differences in the cooler and power delivery, which is why they enable different power limits. It could probably handle more power, but they want to play it safe I suppose. And yeah, you can definitely achieve better doing it manually; OC Scanner seems to always go lower (probably) to ensure stability - it's mostly aimed at people who don't want to risk manual overclocking, and wouldn't be willing to go through troubleshooting / fine tuning the overclock :)
I think that’s a driver issue because I just had the same problem but I ran DDU (display driver uninstaller) and uninstalled all my nvidia drivers and reinstalled nvidia drivers and everything now it works.
Yeah, graphic cards have power limits that Afterburner can't go past, so it's not gonna destroy your card. Worst case scenario if you're having issues you can just reset AFterburner / uninstall it. All overclocking settings are saved there, and noto n the graphics card, so it'll just go back to "factory settings" then.
Tools like that do exist - I did a video a few months back on Asus AI Suite 3, that does exactly that. However... it tried to set the CPU voltage waaaaay too high. It wasn't stable at all, and would actually damage my CPU in the long term if I left those settings on!
@@joji5912 Yup, and make sure to save the profile, otherwise it might just reset when you turn off your PC. It won't overclock your memory, you'll have to do that manually (which is unfortunate), but it's not a difficult process either :)
To the GPU core clock you will, yes. However, OC scanner doesn't touch memory frequency at all, that part has to be done manually. You could also just use the OC settings and leave the memory at stock settings, it's not mandatory - but there's also extra performance to squeeze out there if you do :)
Can't say I've had people asking about those values before, it does seem unreasonably low. I can't accurately troubleshoot it, but my first impression is you have 3 options: 1) Make sure the card is seated correctly, reinstall afterburner just to make sure everything is ok, and try again (this probably won't change a lot, but just in case) 2)You've gotten unlucky in the silicon lottery, and got a card that doesn't overclock well (or is faulty). If it's stable at default settings you can't do much, just keep using at default. If you're having issues at stock settings, consider asking to have the card replaced. 3)Assuming the card is stable at stock, try running it for a while with the settings OC Scanner gives you to see if you actually have issues. Could be the software getting wrong values. It won't damage your GPU, worst case scenario you'll get a black screen sometime - just reboot (in safe mode in necessary) and get rid of Afterburner to fix it. Overclock settings are saved on Afterburner, not your card, so that'll be enough to fix it. I'd try #3, but I can see how that might make some people nervous. The safest thing to do if you're not sure, is just to keep running it at default settings, and if there's issues then, to try to get a replacement from the store.
I normally just keep my settings 24/7, when the card is not under load, it wont matter anyway, it will not use extra power when idle; and when it is being used, you probably want to enjoy the overclock I assume. If you only want it overclocked sometimes, the middle button on the UI, under the fan speed slider, resets the settings to default. I'd save the OC profile to one of the save slots before reseting, so you can easily go back to it when you want. Afterburner also keeps working with the settings you last used until you change them, or until the PC reboots. It'll depend on your use case if you want the OC always on or not, but it's probably a lot of work to always switch it on and off, and you don't really get any benefit from it.
Did you do scan first? It's an easy mistake to make ^^ You have to Scan first, so it finds the overclocking settings for you card; after that you Test to make sure it's stable. If you run Test without scanning first, it won't really do much since it would just be testing stock settings. (unless I misunderstood and you did do Scan before Test and it still malfunctioned)
@@Deadpool0x2 i have a brand new 1050 Ti. oc scanner was working for me on another pc but when i switched pc it doesn't scan anymore. and when i try to have the same setting like that other pc had the pc would crash
I can try - on your Options under General, Where it says compatibility properties, do you have all options enabled (other than Force Constant Voltage, that stays off)? If you do and it still doesn't work, mind if I ask the brand and model of your card?
@@vex5056 It might also be a driver issue (installing an older driver could help, but I cant guarantee that). However even if you got it working, I dont think you'd get great results , sadly - laptop GPUs don't overclock very well, because of the limit power/cooling that laptops usually have :/
@Kevin Roghart understandable to be cautious ^^ It started being supported in afterburner version 4.6.0, found at least an article here about it - pcper.com/2019/01/nvidia-oc-scanner-now-supports-pascal-gpus/
It does, but there's enough headroom in most cards that the stock cooler can handle it. In my case it went from 59C to 61, which is still pretty cool - it won't start being an issue until the high 70's, and besides, the fans weren't even going at full speed, so there's always the option of turning them up a bit to compensate :)
make the voltage max overclock your card and slowly lower the card because the temp will go down and you might be able to get a better clock speed also it makes your card last longer
It's done with a small program called Wallpaper Engine, you can get it on Steam - I made a video about it as well a while ago! - ruclips.net/video/7PQH0pcm51U/видео.html

You could also just use the OC settings and leave the memory at stock settings, it's not mandatory - but there's also extra performance to squeeze out there if you do :)

Can't say I've had people asking about those values before, it does seem unreasonably low. I can't accurately troubleshoot it, but my first impression is you have 3 options:
1) Make sure the card is seated correctly, reinstall afterburner just to make sure everything is ok, and try again (this probably won't change a lot, but just in case)
2)You've gotten unlucky in the silicon lottery, and got a card that doesn't overclock well (or is faulty). If it's stable at default settings you can't do much, just keep using at default. If you're having issues at stock settings, consider asking to have the card replaced.

do you put the power limit and voltage back to its default after?
I normally just keep my settings 24/7, when the card is not under load, it wont matter anyway, it will not use extra power when idle; and when it is being used, you probably want to enjoy the overclock I assume.
If you only want it overclocked sometimes, the middle button on the UI, under the fan speed slider, resets the settings to default. I'd save the OC profile to one of the save slots before reseting, so you can easily go back to it when you want. Afterburner also keeps working with the settings you last used until you change them, or until the PC reboots.
It'll depend on your use case if you want the OC always on or not, but it's probably a lot of work to always switch it on and off, and you don't really get any benefit from it.
When I did a test is said core clock +0MHz And the curve disappeared. What did I do wrong?
Did you do scan first? It's an easy mistake to make ^^
You have to Scan first, so it finds the overclocking settings for you card; after that you Test to make sure it's stable.
If you run Test without scanning first, it won't really do much since it would just be testing stock settings.
(unless I misunderstood and you did do Scan before Test and it still malfunctioned)
Attic PC Guy I’m having the same issue, I hit test right after scan (“curve” was on the core clock measure) but it said core clock +0MHz
@@AngreANoobProd i am also having the same problem how do we fix it?
@@AtticPCGuy same problem here
it fails to scan
hi so when the scan finished it didnt export it so i manually put the core clock in msi afterburner, is that ok?
A bit weird that it didn't but yeah, that's fine!
Your intro is obnoxious but the video was great
oc scanner don't work for me it only set's my "average overclock" just to 0

Im unable to move the core voltage, power limit, and temp limit sliders. Can someone help?
I can try - on your Options under General, Where it says compatibility properties, do you have all options enabled (other than Force Constant Voltage, that stays off)?
If you do and it still doesn't work, mind if I ask the brand and model of your card?
@@AtticPCGuy same problem I have nvidia geforce 940MX
@@vex5056 It might also be a driver issue (installing an older driver could help, but I cant guarantee that).
However even if you got it working, I dont think you'd get great results , sadly - laptop GPUs don't overclock very well, because of the limit power/cooling that laptops usually have :/
Does it work on gt 1030?
It does! The 1030 is also supported!
I see the website that this oc scanner thing is for rtx and gtx, im worried if i use this scanner, my vga will turn into microsoft display driver
@Kevin Roghart understandable to be cautious ^^ It started being supported in afterburner version 4.6.0, found at least an article here about it - pcper.com/2019/01/nvidia-oc-scanner-now-supports-pascal-gpus/
@@AtticPCGuy understandble have a great day
8:15 lol
dosent maxing ur voltage by it self up temps
It does, but there's enough headroom in most cards that the stock cooler can handle it. In my case it went from 59C to 61, which is still pretty cool - it won't start being an issue until the high 70's, and besides, the fans weren't even going at full speed, so there's always the option of turning them up a bit to compensate :)
make the voltage max overclock your card and slowly lower the card because the temp will go down and you might be able to get a better clock speed also it makes your card last longer
How can I have a wallpaper like yours anyone help?
It's done with a small program called Wallpaper Engine, you can get it on Steam - I made a video about it as well a while ago! - ruclips.net/video/7PQH0pcm51U/видео.html

Nice, espero que tenhas tido sorte com a silicone lottery :p tambem ando com o olho numa EVGA 2080ti, mas com estes preços tou na duvida entre upgrade ou esperar pra proxima geração - mas ainda nem se sabe quando é lol
@@AtticPCGuy Pelo andar da carruagem mais te vale ir para AMD! :/
Ora a minha tem um power limit de 114%..fiz o teste para 110% e deu-me um OC de 194MHz.. fiz o teste no BFV e tinha mais uns 12 FPS's.. bem bom!
No outro dia vi um tipo com uma RX 5700XT e no BFv (eu tenho o 9700k e ele tinha o 3600X) ele tinha mais quase 30 fps's que eu!!!! 30!!!! ..... :( ruclips.net/video/KNGuNpxmKcQ/видео.html
N tive oportunidade de testar os ryzen 3000, mas neste momento n recomendava Intel a ninguem :p e sim ja ha rumores de gpus Amd pra competir com 2080 e 2080ti mas sem datas nem specs concretos, pode durar meses ainda :/
