How much can you overclock a GTX 1060 6gb?

Without explicitly turning on ‘OC Mode’ in the Asus GPUTweakII, the card will hit 1700MHz, which is over its listed boost clock rate of 1683MHz. Turning on ‘OC Mode’ in the GPUTweakII software, and raising the power limit to 120\%(the maximum for this card), and no other adjustments, the card will hit 1890MHz.

Can you overclock a GTX 1060 6gb?

Enjoy overclocking 🙂 My prognosis right now is that most GeForce GTX 1060 cards will all run at roughly 2.0 to 2.1 GHz maximum with a few exception here and there. Memory wise on average we feel you will be able to push to 9.0 GHz (effective) with some card running up-to 9.4 GHz depending on quality and a bit of luck.

Can you overclock 1060?

By 1060 cannot go any higher than +100mhz or it will crash, no matter the voltage.

Can overclocking your GPU damage it?

Overclocking in and of itself cannot damage a C/GPU. If a video card or CPU is set to run at a speed it can’t run it, it will reset (CPU) or crash (GPU). This causes no damage to the component. Voltage and heat are the things you want to watch out for, which I’ll mention later.

Does MSI Afterburner reduce FPS?

In my experience, yes it does. It also increases CPU usage. But the impact on fps is not huge, like 5–10\% in general. If you change some setting, just apply it & close Afterburner, the changes will remain.

How to overclock a GTX 1060?

So, your GTX1060 is a Pascal card, like the 1080Ti, and if I were overclocking it, I would start by raising the power limit to the maximum Afterburner will let you. At that point start watching the clock and see where it now boosts to.

What is the maximum core clock and memory clock for overclocking?

Core Clock : + 200 Memory Clock : +600 MHz (=9.2 GHz effective data-rate) Once overclocked keep this in mind: Due to the dynamic nature of the boost clock, your frequency is not fixed. Limiters and monitors temperature, load, power and voltages will continuously alter a maximum clock state.

Why does Nvidia make it so hard to overclock a GPU?

So, starting with Pascal, Nvidia made it really hard to burn your card doing basic overclocking. Nvidia removed the ability to adjust the GPU core voltage too much starting with Maxwell, and with Pascal chips it’s nearly impossible to put too much voltage in the core.

How do I increase my GPU clock speed to 1910mhz?

Turning on ‘OC Mode’ in the GPUTweakII software, and raising the power limit to 120\% (the maximum for this card), and no other adjustments, the card will hit 1890MHz. Turning the fans to 100\%, which is obnoxious, will let it get to 1910MHz.
