Hello 😄 I have a question
I have this GPU - "Gigabyte AORUS GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Xtreme Edition 11GB Graphic Cards GV-N108TAORUS X-11GD "
In the product detail it says "Built for Extreme Overclocking 12+2 Power Phases. Support up to 8K display at 60Hz"... What does it even means lol. I just found about MSI Afterburner - can I do it with it? I just want some extra fps lol
lone igloo
yes you can use msi afterburner

Why is it saying it was built for extreme overclocking? I can get barely 5% (just asking :D)

i have an EVGA RTX 2060 XC Ultra, and I was wondering if my 2055 MHz boost lock after overclocking (highest i could get with stability) is considered normal, low, or high.

does anyone know what chipset g-skill ripjaws V runs on? trying to use a Dram calculator
dull ginkgo
@wicked sapphire that has nothing to do with chipset
and dram calc does ask for mobo chipset
wicked sapphire
but it is much more likely they don't know the name of the dram chips than they don't know the motherboard chipset, which is usually in the name of the motherboard
dull ginkgo
@wicked sapphire I'm saying, Dram calculator doesn't have a field that asks for anything about ram chipset.
What it does, is ask for Mobo chipset.
wicked sapphire
I think you are being pedantic about the word "chipset," I think they mean to ask about the name of the dram chip used on their ram
also
it does ask for motherboard chipset but it doesn't use the word chipset in the verbage
dull ginkgo
@wicked sapphire Dram calc has like 10 different versions, each having a different interface.
And I see no possible link between any of the other fields and chipset.
wicked sapphire
all I'm saying is someone posting in the overclocking channel of a Discord server full of people who know how to build a gaming computer asking about memory overclocking probably knows what chipset their motherboard is running and is much less likely to know which dram chips their ram uses, given this informaiton is often not even available from the manufacturer
dull ginkgo
@wicked sapphire breh
wicked sapphire
they might be calling dram chips "chipset" even if it is not the technically correct term
dull ginkgo
That's implying they're capable of reading the manual
Because last time I checked
the readme.txt that comes with dram calc tells you to use typhoon burner
And this assumption just doesn't make sense to me
wicked sapphire
it's still much more likely they know what chipset their motherboard is
it is literally on the box and something you research when choosing your cpu
dull ginkgo
@wicked sapphire then why didn't they just click help and read?
:P
People are illogical
If they're in here asking a simple question
there's some misunderstanding somewhere
I happen to have 1.6.2 installed, but right up there, Help button :P
Anyways, it's still much more likely to me they're asking about Motherboard, than it is calling "Memory Type" a chipset
wicked sapphire
I don't think it's terribly difficult to get "dram chip" mixed up with "chipset," I was just suggesting you might be misinterpreting the question
dull ginkgo
And I am suggestion you might be misinterpreting the question.
Either way, there is wrong terminology in there.

i almost bricked my system last night trying to tune my ram timings. have a few questions about some specific mobo settings i could use some help with.
gigabyte is the MoBo manufacturer, and there are two areas in the BIOS config for tinkering with DRAM timings. One is under a "tweak" tab, while the other is under "settings"> "amd overclocking". the die type on my dram is hynix cjr/djr i believe.

how do i overclock my ram
winter lintel
I recommend watching a youtube video that uses your motherboard BIOS. The method I found for myself at least was to use a program that'll detect every spec of your RAM and calculate a good OC for you. Then set voltage at 1.4v, increase the RAM speed to what you want or until it crashes. Save the speed number, set speed to the one that is stable enough/what you want, lower the cas latency, or just stick with CAS16, and then you can take timings from the RAM calculator program
gusty sandal
alright, do you know good programs for that?

9615 off a 2060S and 2700X
2700 isnt OCed but the gpu tho she cooking
hello?
any tips to push it more
thats my settings in afterburner sorry for no hyperlink not being able to post pics until lvl 3 is lame
visual zodiac
whats the highest "safe" voltage i can operate my 2700x on?
dull ginkgo
@visual zodiac research around, it differs from chip to chip, with zen 2 you can check by just using PBO and seeing what the chip gives itself in terms of voltage, but zen+ is a bit different
dull ginkgo
Don't think zen+ does that but to check @visual zodiac when letting itself boost, run P95, and see what voltages it goes to under load.
visual zodiac
ah ok
well 4ghz on 1.4v is ultra stable
all core
surprised my pc hasnt crashed yet
wow 81.25 degrees C
small ftt
65 degrees if i test on blend mode
dull ginkgo
Test with smallfft not blend
Anyways
Whatever voltage if you left it on stock and smallfft, should be the highest safe for your chip

1.38v if you can keep load temps under 70c, otherwise 1.33v

Anyone good with memory overclocking?
I’m on a z390 (t topology) with 2400 cl15 trident z. Trying to figure out the best value way to get 32gb

if i lower it just a tad its stable enough to game on
according to user bench i beat a 2070 and are close to a 2070S
i got one run where i got 117% on there but haven't been able to replicate it but for that run it was faster than stock 2070S by 1 or 2 %

Depending on the ram kit you may not be able to overclock
Keep it at 3000 and it should boot fine

this is the video I followed
Setting RAM speed above default on Asrock B450 motherboard by low Q
and the stable frequency it boots at is 2133
@tough hound
steel palm
how would I do that
dull ginkgo
Turn XMP off, set frequency to 3000mhz, and try to boot
if that doesn't work, might need to manually do timings instead of auto
steel palm
theres only auto no off
steel palm
if you search up the video you can look at my bios
dull ginkgo
oh then leave it on auto
steel palm
and boot it to 3000?
dull ginkgo
And below it, at frequency, manually set it to 3000
tough hound
In general, you should only be changing one setting at a time
So you can narrow down why it is having issues
Reset your bios with cmos if necessary

has anyone here added voltage trim pots to a 1080ti/titan x pascal/titan xp
i picked up a titan xp for a good deal and i've gone into some big aircooling for it
raijintek morpheus ii, backplate from an arctic accelero extreme iv, and i've got copper memory/vrm heatsinks on the way as well as some tech ingredients thermal epoxy for them
real prism
yoyo people
so i have a ryzen 9 3900xt and a 1080 ftw edition
now i want to know what are the best numbers to overclock my gpu on
my psu is a 750watt evga 80 plus gold
im using evga precision x1
finite steppe
my temps are great but i'm constantly bumping voltage and power limits
@real prism every card is different
i was able to do +500mem +150core on my 1080
but that really means nothing for you
just keep upping clocks until you find instability and then back down. do core first
anyway i'm wondering if it's worth adding voltage trimmers and doing a shunt mod to an air cooled card
even if it's an extremely well cooled air cooled card
are these mods only helpful for ln2 overclocking?
if i'd only get a small bump in oc headroom for my time i'd be fine with that. i realize this stuff is well past the point of efficiency
proven canopy
@finite steppe Check this out https://xdevs.com/guide/pascal_oc/
proven canopy
anyway i'm wondering if it's worth adding voltage trimmers and doing a shunt mod...
Not really, no
Unless you plan to waterblock/ln2 pot it later
finite steppe
i actually tried to link an xdevs page for the 1080ti and the bot told me that website is banned
proven canopy
You can post links now
This one? Ya, all of TiN's articles are a masterclass IME https://xdevs.com/guide/pascal_m_oc/
finite steppe
i tried asking here anyways because the article just assumes you're doing ln2 overclocking which is of course what's common for those mods
i can keep my card around 50c and it's not finished with the cooling mods yet. i've thought about doing water
i'd really hate to do the soldering and then find out "oh my card is now thermal throttling"
but i'd like to think i have some good headroom
currently the best my card (titan xp) can do is +125mhz on the core which gets me to 2000mhz
i'd be really happy with like 1-200mhz more and maybe somewhere around mid 60c
proven canopy
Ya nvidia cards dynamically adjust clock based on temp/power target
e.g. you can hit something like 2100 core on most Turing cards if you keep core <40c
finite steppe
if i remove that temp sensor tin shows in the article, would it stop this behavior?
or is it only to do with sub 0 temps
proven canopy
Don't think so
There are many, many temp sensors in the die
It's not really an artificial limitation
finite steppe
he does mention it removes overheating protection though
but it doesn't say anything further
finite steppe
i've noticed temps going over 55c or so causes another drop in clocks
proven canopy
I think it's about 15mhz every 5c?
finite steppe
so that's what i am thinking about
yeah something like that
i'll go just below 2000mhz
now with extra voltage and power limit i'd definitely have a temp increase
proven canopy
@radiant kettle sup
finite steppe
so i'd hate to lose clocks from temps going up, even though i just gained clocks from extra power
i have no idea if one would overrule the other

only advantage of that is being able to run higher voltage which isn't safe 24/7 anyway

I have a suspicion that evga is trying to clear stock
radiant kettle
Probably not selling cause it's so niche, but maybe we see epower vi in a year or so
finite steppe
does epower give you voltage control or just more current/lower vrm temps
proven canopy
epower gives you all the voltage control
radiant kettle
You can control the voltage it outputs
proven canopy
Has a separate memory rail as well
radiant kettle
But main reason to use it is vrm is too weak
finite steppe
how does that work, software? external device? knob?
radiant kettle
It's not a reversable mod
You can do other vmods and pull them off to sell the card
proven canopy
Well, not easily reversable, usually you just desolder the chokes and solder in the epower
finite steppe
i've already had to solder my titan, knocked a cap off and fixed it. it's probably well past warranty anyway
radiant kettle
You also have to cut the connections to the old vrm so it doesn't try to power on
@finite steppe if you epower the card cannot be made to work without an epower any more
And most people don't want to buy a card with epower hanging off
finite steppe
i'd be likely to just sell it complete when i can get a 3090/6900xt next year. or just keep it forever
i'm not too worried about it
finite steppe
what is fb mod
radiant kettle
Feedback mod, basically there's a pin on the vrm that detects how much voltage the gpu is actually getting, if you put a resistor between the gpu and that pin the it thinks the gpu is getting less voltage than it is so it steps up voltage
Ideally it would be a potentiometer so you can adjust the voltage
I think there's a version you can do for pascal that gives you fixed voltage, which is ideal
Once you get voltage to be properly fixed you can set a flat curve and overclock using the "low power" state, which is fine because you manually force the voltage to be enough
And that way you never get micro throttling and performance is higher
finite steppe
you have my brain's mouth watering with the thought of a 2400mhz titan xp on air
that would beat a 3070 i am willing to bet
