By a full one percent !

Any ideas why?

EVGA precision allows 117% max power limit

Afterburner 116%

Surely should be the same?

Could be a rounding issue. What bios are you on?

Try going in to GPU-Z and then to the Advanced tab. Then Scroll down to 'Power Limit' and check what it says under 'Maximum'. It's common to have maximums like 120.7% or 114.3% and so on.

Rounding error in the GUI of the programs then. One is counting 116.8% as 116 and the other as 117.

As for Afterburner, go to settings -> General and make sure 'Unlock Voltage control' is ticked, along with 'Unlock Voltage Monitoring'. If it doesn't work, use one of the other options (reference/extended, etc.) on the drop down menu, depending on your card type.
