how can i overrclock my rx 580 further ?

[frank30fps]

The core is overclocked to 1450Mhz and the ram is overclocked to 2300 (stock core:1350, stock ram:2000) i wanna know if it's possible to overclock it more, thanks. (the temp under load is around 55 to 60)

 

[mstenholm]

You are the only one to know. Test it.
The temperature is obtained how? If gaming I don't believe it to be true meaning a safety feature is going unnoticed and you kill it. I understand your question. All the posts I have ever seen about Red Devil involve +80 C GPU.

what do you mean

i will do an heaven benchmark for 20min then i will send you the temps

I'm not an AMD person meaning that I didn't owned one for some generations so I'm out. But include a GPU-Z sensor in the post for the AMD cleaver ones,

I ran heaven for 15min and the temperatures didn't went above 70c

what program are you using to OC it? From here I would go in small increments throw 10-15 MHz at gpu until it is unstable then back it off 10 to see if it is stable. Then do the same with memory small bumps then back off until it is stable. You maybe at limits now or you run it up to 1525 and 2400.....

 

[TheMadDutchDude]

Just so you know, the memory might be unstable and causing you a drop in performance. I would test at 2000 and test incrementally until you get worse performance. Even if it is at that speed, error correction kicks in and throttles it.

i am using msi after burner and i did a stress test https://www.3dmark.com/tsst/588498

I find undervolting and reduction in memory speed increases frame rates on my 390X less means more FPS. I go -100mV and 1500 to 1200 MHz on my mem clock. Use afterburner.

That is probably due to you being on AUTO for memory timings. With lower frequency the timings are able to tighten up meaning less latency.

Playing with memory freq and timings is not something that is for the uninitiated. Just increasing to 2300 doesn't mean anything unless you manually adjusted your timings and benched memory like crazy to check for instabilities. For instance if you increase to 2300 and everything else is on AUTO then your system will degrade timings to support that frequency, which could actually result in much slower performance and even system stability.

All these AMD users better be brushing up on memory overclocking. CAS,tRCD, tRP,tRAS, Command Rate, and many more. If you don't know what those mean then don't push your memory...unless you have XMP profiles for higher clocks.

 

[frank30fps]

when i overclock my memory i get more band width and more pixel filtrate per seconds

 

[frank30fps]

i use a custom fan curve

try it out for yourself

 

[advanced3]

Pretty sure AMD cards pull timings on the memory so overclocking it is moot or worse.

You can adjust GPU memory timing?

 

[ZenZimZaliben]

You can adjust GPU memory timing?

Yes, actually. Auto, Level 1 and Level 2. Located in AMD Radeon Control Panel. From there you can see what timings are on the memory in other monitor applications. As I mentioned people are seeing varied results with Level 2 being tighter timings so it won't OC as far but sometimes tighter timings offset the lower bandwidth.

 

[xtreemchaos]

I have 2 saphhire nitro+ 580s one will hit 1500 on the core no problems the other wont go above 1450 no matter what I try , its the luck of the draw. the extra 50mhz dont make a difference in gaming or running benchmarks. thay both run well @2300 on the memory.

I recommend you start by doing a bit of research ... looking at reviews. I typically look at the MSI cards first as they almost always reviewed her at TPU and usually tops in OC

MSI Radeon RX 580 Mech 2 8 GB Review

Today, we have for review the new MSI Radeon RX 580 Mech 2, which is an overclocked custom design variant of the RX 580. It comes with a dual-slot cooler and delivers excellent noise levels that match the quietest RX 580 cards. Overclocking is great, too; we reached 1540 MHz.

www.techpowerup.com

There you will see they obtained a core of 1540 Mhz on core and 2250 Mhz on memory where its capped. You can see here that it is a 12.7% OC over reference (66.7 fps) which is quite high for an AMD card. The 1060 manages about 18.2 % by comparison.

So basically, why spend a whole lotta T & E when someone has already done all the work ? Instead of inching up from the base clocks a step at a time, look at what others have done with your card and similar models, try those settings and testg .... move up and down as necessary to find the speciic stable point for your particular silicon/

PowerColor Radeon RX 580 Red Devil review

"You can use any tweaking utility of your preference of course. We use AfterBurner based on personal preference, all other brands like ASUS, Gigabyte and thus EVGA all have nice tweaking software available as well, it's just that advanced overlay and tweak functionality that AB offers that has my personal preference. Our applied tweak:

• Core: 1475 MHz
• Mem: 2250 (x4) = 9000 MHz
• Power +50%
• Voltage +96
• Fan 41% (reasonably silent)

Basically you'll gain another notch out of the graphics processor. The memory is limited at 2250 x 4 = 9 Gbps. The GPU will max out roughly at 1475 MHz, admittedly this stable but I would recommend dropping down 25 MHz for long term stability. We locked in the fan RPM at 45%, this is a normal noise level."

That is probably due to you being on AUTO for memory timings. With lower frequency the timings are able to tighten up meaning less latency.

do you mind noise ?

my card runs at 150 faraneight

 

[eidairaman1]

Part of your problem is your case restricts the cards ability to breathe


HELLO ALL

Yes i will agree with you the Hp z-420 cases are restrictive
House central air at 77 Farenheit constant, I can hit 172-175 Farenheit temps
even with the door off ..nothing is overclocked

If i pull the card throw in a Nvidia card no setting changes
it will run 40 F degrees cooler..

I scored the two red devils in a trade and like them but have seen they run hot

my new build (pic above) is all vents ..top bottom and front PS is flipped over two blow out a
bottom mounted exhaust but hasnt been ran yet ..

I anticipate heat issue from the video card. So any custom setting or fan curves knowledge I can
gleam from this will be a plus

Apples to oranges, if its such a problem sell the RX580 to someone who would appreciate it.

 

[Grog6]

I hear LN2 is good for overclocking...

 

[eidairaman1]

I know someone who might be able to do a custom clocked bios for you.

Lets Start with a GPU-Z screenshot please, put the card back to stock clocks then post it here
