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.



The maximum stable clocks of our card are 1135 MHz core (10% overclock) and 1400 MHz memory (4% overclock).

GPU Overclocking potential is decent and provides a nice performance boost. Memory, on the other hand, doesn't overclock much at all. The memory chips are supposed to be able to handle at least 1500 MHz, but our result is much lower.

Important: Each GPU (including each GPU of the same make and model)
will overclock slightly differently based on random production variances.
This table just serves to provide a list of typical overclocks for similar cards,
determined during TPU review.

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 7.2%.
