Overclocking

The voltage slider in MSI Afterburner remains greyed out, so only the power and temperature limit can be changed with this card. We set the maximum on both: 105 percent and 88°C.

With these settings in place we managed to add 100MHz to the frequency curve for a new boost clock of 1,795MHz, bringing us closer to 1,935MHz in games.

We also got the memory to 15.6Gbps, just over 11 percent extra.
