Hello
I have a few questions regarding overclocking an ASUS STRIX GTX 1060 OC edition. Please bear with me as I am a newbie at overclocking and I want to get it right. I appreciate any help you guys can give me.
I am using the latest version of MSI Afterburner for overclocking (Downloaded it just yesterday).
So here are my questions:
1) I've tried to bump up the voltage (e.g. +5, 10, gone all the way up to +25) in MSI afterburner (its the setting at the very top which I believe is a percentage). But HW Monitor tells me that no matter what I do, the max voltage is always 1.063V. Am I doing something wrong, or is that the max. possible voltage I can get?
2) To test my stability, I am using Unigine Heaven 4.0 and I do not know how to determine whether its working or not. I do not see any problem with it. What I do see, and this is with testing multiple core clocks and mem. clocks both high and low, is these horizontal lines that come up every time in the exact same picture frame.
These lines are not 'lines' per say. They are sort of like when you fold a paper and it makes a crease so it is kind of like a crease. Maybe I should use some other software for testing stability? I havent been so daring to go way too high on the clocks just yet, and with the voltage problem, I am afraid that it wont work anyways cuz high overclocks require high voltage in some cases.
Thank you in advance for your help! I appreciate it.
