AMD - How To Overclock The Official Way Using Afterburner + Step By Step Overclocking Guide + Comple

3793680128
 
I've red old review yesterday,can't find it now,but they mentioned in it that card was locked on 1125 and 1575 when it came out,but amd released new bios with voltage control up to 1,3V,and when they used this new bios they were able to reach 1165mhz core and 17000mhz memory.
Bios exist a just need to find out which will be best for this card,maybe ghz edition?
I just need guidance on what to get

I will check that now mate.
I red that ghz bios operates on lower voltage and gives higher clocks

If you could not unlock voltage control then maybe you were using a old version of afterburner. Ghz edition bios operates on higher voltage and higher clocks. Its not worth it though. Just manually overclock yourself and increase voltage as needed.
 
Sill now luck:(
I tick allow voltage control,and still can't do it.
I gain extend official oc limits,before I could only set 1125 maks. and 1575.
Am I doing something wrong or this card is voltage locked,and the only way to unlocked it, is to flash bios?

Show me a screenshot of afterburner and gpu-z plox. You have a reference card so it should not be voltage locked, as far as i can tell anyway.
 
Copy these settings. You might need to restart afterburner. If its still locked after that then im out of ideas im afraid.

How bizarre. You can leave unofficial overclocking mode disabled btw. Don't know if that will make any difference. At this stage all i can suggest is to try Trixxx instead.

Where is the best place to download Trixxx?(without other crappy programs along the way?)
Will do in the evening,now I got other stuff to do.
Cheers for your help Matt;)
Already downloaded Trixxx,and IT'S WORKING!

Good to hear. I'm amazed that afterburner does not work tbh.
 
Yeah it's a pity.
I'm totally new to Trixx,can I display temps,clocks,during gaming(left to corner) or I need download other program to monitor that?
Trixxx only control core voltage?,what about memory voltage?

Trixxx can't display OSD, you'll need to use afterburner for that. Not sure about the memory voltage on trixxx, should be able to if you can scroll down. Very little to be gained from the memory though.
 
So trixxx and msi afertburner working alongside together,won't cos any interference?
My values in trixxx for vddc 1,2V - gpu-z=1,156V
1,212V - 1,184V
Is that normal? As far as I now 1,25V is safe for this card,but I won't achieve this voltage cos trixx got maks. vddc to 1,3V but gpu-z readings are much smaller?

What is the best stability test for OC?
I'm running sleeping dogs on highest possible setting (1920x1200)?

Won't do so long as you don't touch clocks/fan speeds in afterburner. Yes thats normal, its vdroop. On reference cooling id stick to 1.2v or lower. :)
 
trixx 1,25V gpuz 1,209 for 1175mhz and 1600mhz.
Pass benchmark in tomb raider min 42,8,maks.68,1,ave.54,3
I'm going to deep her under water soon,just checking if she is worthy to keep her:)
How to use snipping tool after finish benchmark it tomb raider?or are you using different program for that,Would like to post score in the thread.
