I prefer using MSI afterburner to overclock

Same, but only because Wattman regularly loses my settings just for the LOLs! I like Wattman otherwise

Nice

My card is a bit weird, it won't go high but it'll go low ([email protected]). More than happy with that tbh, fairly cool considering how stuffy it is in here

yeah it is fairly humid now, just out of interest in AMD have you tried the Auto tuning GPU wondering what boost it gave you, mine gave 2135mhz

No man, but I'll try it at some point this next couple of days and see what it gives me.

I can understand afterburner easier and the little tweaks found it harder to understand in Wattman also couldnt set zero rpm in Wattman with OC or I couldnt find it

No worries I need to test mine more see if its stable then might play more some more I wanted to reach 2100mhz ingame but might need little more voltage and already gets pretty toasty and my case hasnt got the best airflow

Yup there's less fidelity overall but it's certainly more reliable for me.

 

[sadat]

this is fun

Oh yes. Tuning and tinkering with the GPU to get the best out of it. So long until a window or Adrenaline update messes things up again!

Nice looking forward how far you can push that and temps

That's my cooler, great piece of kit!

 

[sadat]

thanks guys. Just waiting for a couple of fittings and then the bending starts!

 

[TangoEchoAlpha]

@sadat - looking good! What case are you putting it all into? Beginning to wish I picked up a reference 5700XT a few months ago, but decided to wait for the new cards. Now feels like the waiting game has been going on for ages!

 

[sadat]

Thanks mate- case is an o11d (non xl) I picked up for £60 used - cracking deal if I may say so myself. Was missing a rubber feat and motherboard screws which I got from eBay separately. If I had to buy new I would have gone for the XL as its easier to vertical mount and bottom rad+fans with distro plate.

In AMD software Auto tuning GPU it sets it to 2135mhz ingame its around 2090mhz but with higher temps , I prefer using MSI afterburner to overclock , gonna leave it as it is currently using Afterburner maybe could try squeezing more but dont think its worth it

Really? Hmm, what kind of temps are you seeing?

here's mine in that case...

it wasnt stable after trying warzone, its very humid right now which really isnt helping on gpu it tops 80c and junction 110c i can see that dropping about 20c once this warm spell is gone, I currently had it set boost 2085mhz ingame it stays at 2050mhz this is using voltage 1.15v stock is 1.2v, temps 78c and junction 100c pretty sure this will drop quite abit once the warm weather has passed

even on stock the card boost is 2035mhz ingame its around 2044-2050mhz

I dont understand the power limit in MSI Afterburner do I leave it or increase it ?

Thanks

When it's hot inside never use PL level PL at 0.
Here is what you do.
1.100mv
2100Mhz
Leave Vram at stock speed.
Fan curve should be at the max you can audibly deal with. For me it's 65C. So what I do is a create a idle temp of 35C and just ramp it straight up to 65C beyond 45C. And it's a flat line at 65C. Temps are pretty low for me doing that.

 

[sadat]

here's mine in that case.

Wow. She's a stunner!

Thanks I'll try that

OOps I meant 65% for fan speed not 65C.

So true. from factory these cards are so limited with fan speed so you can actually boost it up a bit until what you are happy with noise wise and enjoy cooler temps.
