Question Is my GPU okay with VRel message in GPU-Z ?

[zuljinzu]

Hello everyone

I have got an ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER 16GB OC and it is running nice.

Do I have to be worried about the message in GPU-Z, it keeps saying "VRel" when playing Counterstrike 2 and Escape From Tarkov?

I can see that it hits "high" clock speed at GPU Clock and i dont feel like its underperforming when gaming.

But maybe I can push the card further if i not got hit by VRel, or is that nothing to do with VRel?

For info my power supply is like 5 years old so could that be the cause of the VRel problem?

You can see the picture of it here:

My setup is:

AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 4.2GHz Socket AM5 Box
MSI B650 Tomahawk Wifi
G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo DDR5-6000 - 32GB - CL30 - Dual Channel - AMD EXPO - Sort
Corsair RM750x 750W PSU
ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER 16GB OC

CORSAIR Hydro Series H150i PRO Liquid CPU Cooler
Corsair Obsidian 750D - Kabinet - Full tower


I hope you can help me and maybe its just the way the card is working?
I just have to make sure that i use the card to its fully potential

It's normal for there to be at least one PerfCap Reason. There are several:
Power. Max boost clock/curve is limited due to hitting the board power limit.
Thermal. Max boost is limited due to hitting the temperature limit.
VOp, Operating voltage. Limited due to being at the physical limit of the voltage controller.
VRel, Reliability voltage. Gpu core won't be stable at the next voltage bin in the V/F curve. Silicon lottery is involved.
Idle. No performance cap present.
Utilization. Kinda self explanatory.

Thermal, is by far the worst of these. It's ok if you see the others.

its just the way the card is working?

Yes, it won't be the same for every card.
