Hey, i've never overclocked a GPU before so i'm a bit lost. I've got the latest Precision XOC installed and my 1080ti FTW3 ready to go, just not sure what slider do what and what i'm aiming for. Anyone with a FTW3 suggest some settings for me?
 
Thanks

I would do this:
 
1.- Set fan speed on all your gpu fans manually to 80%.
 
2.- Move the "power target" and "temp target" sliders to right all you can.
 
3.- Click the GPU clock offset number to the right of the "gpu clock offset" bar and enter "+25".
 
4.- Run a benchmark (heaven, 3d mark, etc ...). If the card finishes the benchmark without crashing or showing artifacts, go back to step 3 and add another "+25" MHz. Keep doing this until you crash or see artifacts.
 
5.- Once you have found the gpu clock offset that your card can NOT work with,  substract 5 MHz from that value and rerun the benchmark. Keep substracting 5 MHz until you find a value that works.
 
6.- Now you have a candidate to an stable overclock. I say this because some games might push the card in ways that the benchmarks do not, so you need to start playing your favorite games and see if they work with the overclock you have.
If you crash in any game, you know what to do: Substract 5 MHz from the "gpu clock offset" and try again. Keep doing this until you find a value that always works.
 
7.- Now that you have an stable overclock, adjust your fan curve in a way that does not kill your ears and set your fans for "auto".
 
8.- When you have everything how you like, you can right click the numbers at the bottom of the PrecisionX UI to save your overclock and reapply those settings by clicking the same number with the left mouse button.
      Note: You can save and reapply settings when you want, so you can use it while you are trying to find your overclock if it helps you.
 
9.- When you are 100% confident that your gpu overclock works with all your games (play a few days to be sure), you can follow the same method with the "memory overclock offset" number.
 
IMPORTANT: Always make sure you got a perfectly stable gpu overclock before you do the memory overclock. If you do not, you are gonna have many headaches. You have been warned.
