ScotyMy FTW 1070 also are very badly. I get only stable 2012Mhz, this is a joke for a high end Card. With a MSI i get 2070. Why is the FTW so badly? Other User get over 2100Mhz and i have 2012Mhz. I don't like the FTW.



Lol and i thought i had it bad, should just RMA these cards to get another chance in the silicon lottery, but when most SC and founders cards have better chips then the FTW then it is bad.
 
This how i'll remember the FTW card i have.
 
FTW = Forever the worst xD

Just got the FTW 1070 and I am seeing +130Mhz to gpu clock and +300 on mem clock(Can go higher Just didn't see the point past that) but seeing a GPU clock of 2100Mhz and once I hit a bout 60C it drops to 2088Mhz. My power target is set to 112% with a custom curve set on the fans. I question if this is safe for my card in the long run as I don't want to burn it out. If anyone with more experience can fill me in would be great.

Speaking of FTW OC, has anyone else notice how long these beast hold heat?

As for the OC, either this card is awesome, its a DT, or both Afterburner and Precision X are broken?

I think I will wait for a new revision of both and pick one for more OC'ing?

Anyways, back to the heat, was stressing my CPU today trying for and after the 20 minute burn I went to cool down everything.

The GPU was so slow to cool, I finally had enough of it and cranked the fans to 100% indicated by the arrows.



Anyone else feel the same way, I use a custom fan curve far more aggressive than stock.

1088? Or 2088?

Looks fine to me... of course the card cools down slow if the fans are turned off. And running fans at 100% with the GPU already beeing below 60°C takes as well.

I'm only getting +50MHz (1975-2000MHz) and if I add just +5MHz more then I get crashing in Heaven benchmark so you're not alone. I'm also a little bit dissappointed with my 1070 FTW :/ I also have quite loud coil whine...

Do you have "Prefer Maximum Performance" set in NVCP under Power Management Mode? Wondering if that is affecting that throttling.

No I don't but I did watch some videos on it last night and if I adjust that I can hold 2100Mhz.

Whenever my GTX 1070 FTW launches, it starts at 1607 Mhz.  I've set it up at +125 Mhz, should it not start at 1732 Mhz every time a launch a game?

No overclock affects boost clock. Base clock will stay 1607mhz.

Got it.  Looks like mine stays pretty stable at 2101 Mhz.
