OC'ing 1070ti with MSI Overclock Scanner

[KungFuSpaghetti]

Thought I'd try this out seeing as beta 10 works on GTX 10 series cards, but seeing some odd stuff...

I've done as per the MSI guide, slid voltage, power and temp to max (previously did power and temp) and hit the auto OC and left it to run.

As I post this, it's still running and has been going for over 18 minutes and my GPU core is now currently just starting scanning point 2, it finished scanning point one a moment ago at +468mhz on the core. Does this seem normal???

My GPU is a cheapo Palit Dual GTX 1070ti, but I've got a 240mm Tech Labs AIO on it, core temp on HWMonitor is currently at 38 degrees with GPU core at 99-100%

So these are the results, going to try it and stick RAM OC back on at +350 which I what I use regularly on it...

my 2060 took 20mins todo

need to do the ram manualy tho i presume?

Early on it applies a high clock so for my crappy 1080 Ti it goes to +150 MHz and I think great that's a decent OC but by stage 4 it's down to +70 MHz and just proves what I already know is that mine is nothing special though still manages ~2000 MHz being set higher to start with.

RAM is manual currently.

Well I thought I'd give this a go and test it in some games and bench tests... it's slower than how I had it before. Stuck the RAM OC back on at +350, then ran Unigine Superposition, score just over 4100... then put it back to previous settings with core at +200 and ran it again, 4500+. Then put voltage up to 100% and core to +215 and left RAM at +350 and scored over 4600.

FPS also notably slower with auto OC playing pubg and that was just in the test area, so actual games would no doubt be even worse. Good tool to dial in how high you can run the core, but the custom curve is garbage and seems to kill performance. I think I'm power limited at any rate, as going over +215 to say +225 makes no difference, the card STILL boosts to only 2126mhz and just holds on that for the duration of Unigine.
