core clock question

[yuval123]

i got gigabyte gtx 1050 ti D5 4GB (1 fan). when im overclocking in h1z1 i increasing the core clock and when it goes +240 its crashed, but under 240 overthing fine, what is the reason of that, i want to increase it more.. i will run it better

Well its going to get unstable at some point, there is a limit to how much you can overclock. What clock speed does the gpu run at with the +240 offset? A little under that is likely your max overclock. You can max out the temp and power limit sliders if you haven't already, that may allow you to push it a bit farther.

in a game, core speed is +237MHz, so should i increase the power limit?you think it would help it go farther?

Core speed is not +237mhz that is the offset, the core clock should be around 1850-1950mhz under load in a game, most 1050 ti's wont overclock past 1911mhz or so stable. Yes increasing the power limit may allow you to push it a bit farther.

Head's up, if you have a 1050 Ti which does not use a 6 pin connector, increasing power may not work. It's drawing a max of 75W from the motherboard and that's it. Unless Gigabyte found a way to max performance of the card with less than 75W, you won't have 'extra' power to give.

Also, a general tip for overclocking, component selection is important. If you want to overclock, it's important that you buy components that by design are overclock friendly. An example of overclock friendly in a videocard is a card that has the connectors to allow you to draw more power, and a card that has better than average cooling.

Yes, you can try to overclock anything, but that's not going to be as successful.
