Been using MSI Afterburner and can't seem to get my GPU clock past 1035Mhz. I can reach around 1850Mhz on the memory, no problems!

Right now, I've just increased the power limit to 122%. What can I do to allow me to go 1100Mhz on the GPU? Or even higher?

Thanks!

Are you changing the boost clock?

What are your clocks in game?

If your base clock is now 1035Mhz* (+120 offset) that would make your boost clock north of 1200Mhz (assuming it is boosting similarly to my two - 1124Mhz boost).

*Your opening post just mentions 1035Mhz as the "GPU clock" - what does this refer too, Boost or Base clock?

In Afterburner, my offset is +116 right now. I can't go any higher. The base clock is being increased.

Base clock is at 1031Mhz. I can't recall what my Boost clock is. Not home at the moment.

How can I go to at least +150? I see that you're at +175.
