Aorus Radeon RX 570 Overclocking

The Aorus Engine utility gave us no control over this card's power limit, which is odd. The option was there in Radeon WattMan, however, and we set it to the maximum: 150 percent.

No voltage increase could be applied to the core either, and in the end we only got the card stable at 1,355MHz, which is some way off the 1,430MHz we saw with MSI's Gaming X card. It is, however, always a lottery. The overclock is 75MHz (six percent) higher than the out-of-box frequency, or 111MHz (nine percent) over reference clocks.

The memory did appear to let us increase the voltage, at least in WattMan. Using this, we set a voltage of 1,000mV (100mV more than the 900mV default) and reached 1.95GHz (7.8Gbps effective), an 11 percent boost.
