Ok so im trying to do some overclocking with this card. I tried on MSI Afterburner but couldnt change voltages or power usage. So I also tried PrecisionX and it lets me change those two settings i just dont know how much i should do each one. Ive watched some of Jayztwocents videos on overclocking but the interface on his videos is a tad different so i cant be sure of what im doing.

that gpu comes overclocked out of the factory

best you can do is 50 mhz more or less

that is not 3 fps

if you feel you need more fps, time to buy a new gpu, a gt 1030 will give you the performance boost you want in a good budget but i would go for a gtx 1050ti

Yea, thats about the results i got. The highest i could get was 60 and it gave me like 1.5 to 2fps.. so i just put it to zero. The memory OC on the otherhand i could get up to 450. and it gave me around 10. Is there any way i could increase voltage safely to get that higher? And thanks for the recomendation, just cant really afford a brand new GPU right now. expecially with the prices theyre at right now
 
msi has a option to ignore safe settings, there is a manual somewhere in the settings, second tab in msi afterburner iirc

but in this case, as you see, you already pushed as far as it could be pushed, ask more from it, possibly will not happen
