This is just one benchmark of many to test on but wanted to show my beginning baseline run vs. where i am at so far on tweaks. Benchmark Software i'm working with (right now) is Unigine Heaven 4.0. Still have to test with 3D Mark, Shadow of the tomb Raider built in benchmark and a few others.

First picture is the baseline run at stock CPU clock speed on my i9-9900K and stock GPU settings. Also testing is done at fullscreen @ 2560x1440 resolution on Ultra settings.



Next picture below is on a 5GHz overclock and using the EVGA X1 software to overclock the GPU.
Settings i have modified in the X1 software,
Target Power & GPU Temp = Max
GPU Clock = +175Mhz (Max it seems the card can handle on this Benchmark. Benchmark crashes if i go +180MHz)
Voltage = 100
Memory Clock = +1325MHz (8325MHz)(Still climbing on testing with no crashes)
GPU Fan Speed = 100 Max
Temps AVG 69c-71c (GPU)



I wanted to show these results for the pro overclockers to compare.

What do you get in Time Spy?
I get 16056 game stable 16400 game unstable but my OC is lower than yours as my memory is Micron. From your high memory OC I guess you have Samsung in GPUZ?

Yes i have the Samsung GDDR6 in my card. I have not made it to 3D Mark yet, i am getting ready to run through it now. Going to run a fresh baseline run then dial in the OC results. I will post up my scores when i'm done.

My +175MHz OC on the GPU clock speed didn't fly at all in Shadow of the tomb raider lol. Crashed immediately. Had to back it down to +100MHz to get a run out of it. Also back the memory clock to +1000

I am at +115 +1000, your high core oc is making you crash. Also what I found out is that clocks on RTX start dropping at 40C, my clocks drop from 2130 to 2085 at 40C then to 2055 after 60C.
I have setup an aggressive fan curve so my GPU maxes at 60C.
