    I did it a different way - I reduced my power limit, then used OC Scanner to find an automatic overclock, then added more VRAM speed as the last step.

    Nice video but you didn't tell us how you pick the mV and the frequencies. Why 995mV and why 2835MHz ?

    • @Superior85
      @Superior85  Год назад +6

      It seemed to be a good balance between performance and power savings. I could have dropped clocks & mV further but at some point I would go below stock performance. I also tried some curves that used higher clocks & higher mV, but the power savings weren't as good. I decided that slightly higher than stock performance with power savings was the way to go.
      I ran the Borderlands 3 benchmark and got 2803 MHz AVG at stock, I wanted a value slightly higher than that so I set it to at 2835 (which lands the GPU at 2820 Mhz in most of the games I play).
      Finding the mV value was trial and error, I tried to get the lowest mV value while being stable in benchmarks and games that I play.

    Did you try lowering the voltage even further, whilst keeping similar clocks ? The card should be able to achieve higher overclock at lower voltages - eg +300 at 700mv, +200 at 900mv etc... So I would try limiting voltage to around 950 mv and 2.8 GHz. Or try to go all the way to 900mV and how far the clocks will go.

And I've read all 4070s are the same so just because mine is an OC model it's no more likely to be able to handle 2865Mhz. And there are OC models that are more OCed than mine by default. So just typing +150 might set it to higher than it can handle.

    My game crashed at +1000 on the memory and your method 2 version. If I want to improve stability from the core, do I lower the initial increase on method 2, for example, from +150core to +120? Or do I keep +150 but then lower the maximum clock from 2835 mhz to say, 2805. Which way do you think would improve my stability more? I bought my 4070 Windforce OC open box excellent for $480, so I am trying to test for stability as I only have a 14 day return period if I notice issues.
    Also, my card claims to have a max powerlimit of 108% (216W). However, in various games and benchmarks, it has not gone up higher than 200W. Could this be a defect from the card? Or what is going on?

    • @Superior85
      @Superior85  Год назад +2

      to test the cards general stability it should be tested at factory settings (no memory overclock or core undervolt), there is nothing wrong with the card if there is no crashing at default settings.
      it can take a very long time to find a completely stable setting when using an under volt.
      +150 would definitely crash in my card in some games, and it seems your card already has a factory overclock. for that card i would try dropping down to something like +90, since it already has a factory oc. if that doesn't work try dropping down to +60, eventually it should become stable.
      also, try testing memory and core oc separately, see if removing the +1000 memory overclock stops the crashing.

      @@kalaglow5094 The reason why you can overclock it a bit higher and it work is: The additional tiny higher set voltage/power.
      Because temperatures in a year are from 10-40°C, this difference cause a temperature difference at the gpu. To ensure that it work always, its set higher.
      Means, could be at 20°C your overclock works fine but at 40°C room tempature it might crash or if you open a 4K video + play a 3D demanding game, the drivers crash because the power is insufficient to keep all gpu functions running. Also known issue is higher latency, textures load later, causing blurring at textures.
      My suggestion, dont undervolt it and overclock it, either overclock the highest-core-frequency(not boost) + increase power = stable higher performance OR undervolt it and also reduce the highest-core-frequency(not boost). A combo with overclock and undervolt could work, if you ONLY increase the boost clock, because if the boost is unstable, it mostly jump back to the non-boost clock duo to the missing power (i dont suggest this, cause unstable fps, fps jumps up and down). I also oc-ed once the vram and the result is mostly bad, a tiny oc might work but to find that out isnt worth the time.

      Not if you consider Starfiled FPS in 1440p, Ultra, FSR OFF at New Atlantis:
      RTX2060 SUPER: 25fps
      RTX3060TI: 32fps
      RTX4070 OC: 56fps
      No way a RTX4060Ti could have done almost double the frames of a RTX3060Ti.

      ​@@SirTE0why aren't you showing real 4060ti numbers then ? It's like 10% faster than 3060ti.

    this did nothing but completely destroy my system.
    not one single thing runs like this.
    not one game, obs has problems. davinci resolve has problems..
    fallout 4 crashes every single time...
    just no.

      sad to here it, the OC described in the video works on my Founders Edition in many scenarios.
      also, I doubt your system is actually destroryed, unstable yes, remove the overclock/undervolt and you're back to normal.
      i've had many crashes by undervolting too low in the past and never once destroyed anything.

      it destroys ALL functionality. i dare you to try this with a VR headset... dont open your eyes.

      ​@@Glassboxgames in the video I showed a +150 MHz offset, which could be on the high side, but it does work in many scenarios for me. i.e. didn't destroy all functionality. I don't remember having issues in Divinci Resolve like you have, but every GPU is different, not all can reach the same clocks at the same voltage.
      If I get to a point where an undervolt crashed for me, I wouldn't run around saying "it doesn't work!", I would lower the clocks or increase voltages till it did work...
