UniCrafter on Afterburner values it's 130% on the power limit, +110 on the core clock ( about 1502Mhz with turbo boost) and +520 on the memmory clock. btw it's a gigabyte WF gpu. Mind that every gpu is different even it's the same brand and model but still this card overclock's very well for any model, I had other gpu's before and they could OC too but the performance boost was never this good

As a complete beginner regarding overclocking it was refreshing to hear in simple terms how to go about it, I have applied core clock increases already and will be heading to the memory clock next. Thanks so much Jayz.
Thanks a bunch jay, actually got me into overclocking now! I've been wanting to go buy a new card but money is tight right now so this was a perfect way to gain a little performance for nothing! Built my system 4 years ago I7-4790K GTX 960 8gb ram 250gb ssd boot Stock: FPS:36.5, Score:1525 Min FPS:19.0 Max:66.7 OC: FPS:40.2 Score: 1683 Min FPS:20.5 Max: 73.6 Definitely not the biggest improvements but they are definitely better than none! It's time for me to upgrade just haven't gotten around to doing so yet.

Is mayoneise a video card ? Yes patrick, but only if you overclock it.
I learned so much from this video! I maxed the power limit and temp limit to start. Then I slowly increased the Core Clock and got my msi 970 core boost clock of 1329 increased to 1505 "stable". I say "stable" because I used The Division Benchmark on Ultra Preset and not sure how that compares to Valley Benchmark. I gained an average of 4-5fps without messing with any other settings. Needless to say I have more testing and learning to do but I had a lot of fun using this method, thanks again Jay!
Gained over 5fps on average and the score went from 1976 to 2169 on my Asus 750ti. Thanks Jay!

+ethan king But how long does it maintain that core boost clock though? I've found that pushing my Galax Exoc 970 past +1446 causes my card to hit its 125% power limit repeatedly in games like Battlefield 4 and War Thunder, causing it to downclock suddenly before clocking up again (graphs show this)
This is great. I was wanting to learn how to do this.
Thanks for the video. I'll be sure to revisit as I'm just getting into desktops. Can't do a whole lot of overclocking with laptops.
WOW! As a new overclocker this really helped! Thanks Jay!
Correction to your correction: MSI Afterburner displays an offset for Nvidia GPUs that specifically support GPU Boost, rather than Nvidia cards at large. So, if you have an older Nvidia card(say, a GTX 550 Ti), it will show the absolute clock value. If AMD cards gain a similar feature to GPU Boost in the future, then you'll see the same thing there.

I recently found your channel and it has got me back into pc modding. After watching this video I was able to overclock my GTX 1060 6gb with +130 on the core clock and +140 on the memory clock. I'm looking at getting a GTX 1080ti now.
Thank you for the videos ! Currently over clocking my rx 580 8gb gaming x. I was thermal throttling badly did a re paste with some mx-4 and lost 10 degrees and now i am pulling higher numbers. I have been watching your videos for a while now and i should have been overclocking my gpu long ago !
For some reason I can't disable the on screen display. The "more" button is totally disabled. Perhaps it's something in the latest version, not too sure ...

And when that got a memory problem i swapped to a R9 280X. I can play the games i want just fine, so i will stick with it till it doesn't work anymore.

ShOcKiNgReAliTy e I've already decided not to go for a 780 or another 700 series card altogether, as that isn't really a step forward more like a side-step. Also, I don't trust someone enough to buy a used piece of hardware like a video card. Right now it'll either be a 970 G1 or I don't upgrade at all. I'm torn.
I really appreciate all you do, this was really helpful! I have spent 20+ years on Quadros working in TV and Film,. I never had to OC ( and wouldn't risk studio equipment at any rate) .. Now I am developing VR worlds, I need every bit of power I can get. I know, i know, Quadros are a major BALLS-ACHING Rip Off!
Thank you so much, in 20 years of PC gaming never had a need to OC but now (finally) moving up to a 144hz monitor so doing all I can and this really helped. Was able to get a 10fps boost on my PNY GTX 960 4gb (& running 2600x ryzen) with the following settings: Core Voltage -- +100mV Power Limit -- +108% Core Clock -- +171MHz Memory Clock -- +301MHz Haven't run an hrs/days long test yet, temps are averaging in the mid 80s as of now which I assume is high but safe.

Then you probably didn't do a +100MHz overclock, but underclocked your baby running @100MHz ... which is awesome, because it saves lots of energy xD
yeah man.. works like magic my desktop wallpaper looks good already.. thanks!
This was so easy and helped so much, i got a +200 core clock and +900 memory clock with only a minor increase in voltage. I think i could honestly squeeze more out by slowly upping it alongside the volts but I'm happy where its at for right now. Extreme hd settings - 1920x1080. fps: 168.7 score: 7058 mon fps: 50.7 max fps: 287.9
for some reason i dont have the temp limit setting

Austin Seamann Make sure you've got a custom fan speed curve to compliment your card's probably high TDP

finally taking the time to overclock my gpu, as i have a strix 960, and its hitting the end of its lifespan but i dont have the money to replace it yet, cant wait for summer im getting a job and looking for a new computer, and to extend its lifespan a little longer im dipping my toes in overclocking, and i have to say, its easier than i thought, with a real simple change, and quite frankly a rather large jump in core clock, i real quickly found some really nice improvements
Just wanna say, thanks for posting this. Following your advice I managed to OC my GTX 1060 6Gb (Offset of +200 Core Clock, +175 Mem clock, +30 Voltage). this allowed a stable overclock keeping my video card temp just under 70 deg Celsius with stock cooler. Still too much of a coward to try Water-Cooling :). But in short - thanks
When I’m boosting my Voltage in increments how much do I increase at a time????

Buddy , I followed this method on my rig and wowee the difference on Just Cause 3 was Great !! using a palit 780 Jetstream and gained 230mhz on core clock and a whopping 385 mhz on memory clock. havent even touched the voltages yet! Using nvidia;s latest drivers.....
Its not a "zero cost" performance boost. You pay for the performance increase in your electricity bill. Granted, it's not a lot, but it's not zero either.

+Daniel Burgos You think extended gaming with a significant OC over a month comes to an extra five cents? Sounds like you've never paid a light bill in your life. +MasteerCheef You have to "buy" the extra energy needed to power the OC for extended gaming. I thought I made that clear in the OP. It may be a more cost effective solution, depending on how much you game with the overclock, but it isn't "zero cost". You *will* pay for the extra performance one way or the other.

Strange. I use MSI Afterburner on my GTX 950 and I can't adjust the voltage at all. However I am able to adjust the voltage in EVGA Precision X. I found that I can use Precision X's voltage control independently from the overclocking program so I can use EVGA's voltage control while still using MSI Afterburner to overclock. What's even weirder is I gain speed on the boost clock just by adjusting the voltage alone. I'm afraid to add voltage though since I have a low power version of the GTX 950 and it has no power connector and claims to already max draw 75 watts from the PCI express slot. It seems to be fine with an extra 25 or even 50mv. I just don't wanna start smelling smoke from the motherboard.
Hey Jay! Thanks for this guide, I found it very useful! I have a question though. I tried to change the voltage because the valley bench becomes unstable, it hangs at some points in the scene, but the voltage shown by Afterburner doesn't change. It doesn't matter if I set Core Voltage to max (a mere +12), the GPU voltage will be 1.2V. Is this a bug in the software or does the gpu prevent changing the voltage? I have a MSI GTX760 Twin Frozr 2GB.
wtf i have a core clock of +1000!!! da fuq (yes i hit apply) what did i do?

Step 1. Run a number of stresstests. Step 2. Assuming the temperature is high, proceed to the next step. Step 3. Get a screwdriver and take the small screws off the side panel on your case. Step 4. Take off the side panel. Step 5. Bring some cooking oil, smear it all over the graphics card, get a nice steak, and enjoy your indoor BBQ.

Do you need a quality power supply to safely adjust the voltage and power limit to overclock the gpu? I added a graphics card in an old prebuilt desktop and was wondering if it is still safe to oc or not.
Mine came as factory OC. Should I still dabble with it?
