Overclocking

The overclocking results listed in this section were achieved with the default fan and voltage settings as defined in the VGA BIOS. Please note that every single sample overclocks differently which is why our results here can only serve as a guideline for what you can expect from your card.

On NVIDIA cards with boost, the values discussed here are base clock. Boost will further increase clocks.



Maximum overclock on our card is 1265 MHz GPU clock (15% overclocking) and 1625 MHz memory (8% overclock).

Overclocking is decent and reaches slightly high clocks within the typical range for a Bonaire-based product. Memory overclocking works very well thanks to the Hynix memory chips.

Overclocked Performance

Using these clock frequencies, we ran a quick test of Battlefield 3 to evaluate the gains from overclocking.


Actual 3D performance gained from overclocking is 13.0%.
