Good job. The extra 50MHz gained you 0.5 fps. lol.

Thanks a lot this has helped me get 2100+ all the time! It seems like on pascal it is not about more voltage it is about the right amount of voltage for the chip.

I think its funny - I bought a Acx 3.0 (stock vanilla) and easily achieved 2100 ghz and saved a grip ton of money. It doesn't seem like the extra power did much on this card to make overclocking better. Or is it just me? BTW - mine overclocks to almost 1900 natively

Where did you get your card, may I ask? I'm looking to buy the same card, and will put a waterblock on it. With the frequency wall (2.1 ghz) Pascal has, it makes little sense for me to go for extra power phases

alientek Funny enough using manual core slider I could not get my GPU over 2050mhz without artifacts. Using the custom curve shown below my core never goes under 2.1Ghz, I ain't complaining this is great!. So if anyone was having a hard time getting a good overclock, I suggest using the curve in manual mode.
Good job, your clock is holding 2.1GHz even with high temperatures like 70-75ºC in full load?
As long as the temps stay under 77c the core stays that way. If it goes over that temp it downclocks to 2088mhz no biggie.

Good to know, I'll try PrecisionOC 6.0.3 with similar curve when I get home. tks

Another method I read on was to see what voltage your card likes to sit on. Once you found that frequency, you slowly add 25mhz to it until it is not stable.

My FTW will hit 2.1ghz briefly with my current overclock but typically settles down to around 2050 mhz. I ain't complaining though, loving the card.

What was your max linear overclock amount? I'm sitting at +80 MHz with my FTW. Since I can overclock slightly higher the old fashion way with my card, I'm trying to figure out what I would raise on your curve to get me a slightly bigger boost, any suggestions?

I could do +100 core and +475 memory with the slider, any more id see flashy colors in Doom but wouldn't crash. The core would not go under 2050mhz in any game. Using the curve and if the temps are good, it will hover around 2100-2136mhz.

I could get 2101 MHz peak and 2088 MHz sustained, so I think I can eek out 25 MHz more...any suggestion on what voltage points I could add one more bar higher? Should I go one step higher on all of them do you think?

That's great when you get some insane good card, than install waterblock and overclock. But Sajin is right, sometimes last 100MHz give you very small performance increase but influence a lot how hardware will work next 2-3 years. Because of that hardware could become unstable easier after only 2-3 months. 150MHz for GTX1080 is great frequency, 200MHz incredible for people with waterblocks.

VegetaCreeper I think its funny - I bought a Acx 3.0 (stock vanilla) and easily achieved 2100 ghz and saved a grip ton of money. It doesn't seem like the extra power did much on this card to make overclocking better. Or is it just me?
Power only really helps with extreme stress tests, voltage and silicon lottery is what counts.
So as i am planning to water block my 1080 your saying its not worth spending the extra costs for the higher power phase cards and just buy the standard GTX 1080 (which i was planning on doing at 1st then noticed the extra power phases on the FTW or even the Classified)

as stated many times already on this forum, the 1080's seem to be all about the "silicon lottery". the extra power phases aren't doing much for OC'ing purposes. my MSI Founders Edition peaked at 2153 and my Strix OC is peaking in the 2130's. main difference seems to be in the cooling. my FE card would throttle down to 1900's - 2000's most of the time whereas my Strix can sustain it's OC during 99% of gaming/benching.

Both of my EVGA FE cards are at 2.1Ghz w/o a problem 24x7. I did the same thing though, set the curve and max out power and temp target. When running Furmark or similar such program I get close to the power target, but no where near the temp target. Playing The Division for a few hours the cards never go above the high 30 to low 40 range. A lot of people slammed the FE cards for their price, but they seem to be the best overclockers, more so than the factory OC'd cards. I got my memory OC stable at just a tick over 5500Mhz. I had many more stability/artifact issues when trying to push the memory clocks as opposed to the GPU core.
