NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - Technical/General Discussion

When I change the config file and save it. Reopen Afterbuner and nothing has changed. Tried several times.
if you are happy with the config then you click the windows icon to make it blue so it applies that config when it starts. also in the settings there is an option to start afterburner when windows starts.
 
Another UV question (sorry). I have two UV profiles in MSI AB - 1) 0.9mv @ 2750Mhz & 2) 0.9mv @ 2800Mhz. The first one I created months ago and the second one the other day. However... the first one (2750Mhz) boosts higher in games and benchmarks. How is that possible? Is the MSI AB curve a rough guess at best? It's best strange. I thought i'd do some tinkering again as it had been a while and stumbled across this.
 
The DLSS 4.5 over-ride doesn't appear to work for me if I'm using ray reconstruction (according to the nvidia overlay anyway) - is that how it is supposed to work?

If ray reconstruction on it shows SR Model OVR as inactive. If off it shows it as preset M.

(I've tried this out in cyberpunk and Alan Wake II)

It doesn't work with ray reconstruction.

Oh my! :eek:

Assuming you're comparing like for like, it can be down to the power drawn. The lower voltage set up will draw less power which may lessen any power limits you're hitting in the benchmarks.

To be honest, so few games I play, even at 4K 240Hz, draw the full 600W that I find benchmarks not mega useful. But no reason not to run the lower voltage set up if it's stable and giving better performance. I was running mine at 3200 MHz for ages before backing it off during summer where I thought I was going to melt. Even then, only a couple of actual games hit the power limit.

Yes, they were like for like comparisons. Everything is stock aside from the undervolt.

Tbh, I have found so little difference between 0.9mv @ 2750 and anything higher, that I just settle for that in virtually all the games I play. If the game is old and not demanding (insurgency sandstorm, for example) I have a 0.865mv @ 2400 setup which sips power. Both have never crashed once.
