I am unclear how to OC a video card too. What do I do with this scan data to OC the video card? Thanks.

+153 would be what you input into the core clock.

I'm sorry to be so dim, but could you translate that to PX1 terms?  Does that mean that in his case he'd put the number 153 in the box under "Clock" in the "Memory" group near the top-left of the screenshot?  It sure would be nice if EVGA added something to the scrollover help near the VF Curve Tuner Score area.


EDIT:  After digging around the forum some more, it looks like I was wrong about the "Clock" box under "Memory" being the thing to change.  Apparently, it's the "Clock" box under "GPU" that I'm supposed to change.  Or is it?  Many comments say we don't have to add the score to the GPU Clock box.  All we have to do is Apply and Save after running the test and the new curve will be applied automatically.  Anyone know which is the correct action?  Stick the score in the GPU Clock box, Apply, and Save?  Or, just Apply and Save after the test finishes and shows the score?

Cool GTX
 153 is the GPU & Not the RAM


The +153 that that Card got on the Self-Test for that GPU - In that PC - Only --- is the Value that you would place into the box next to the CPU  (Under GPU, see box Cock - now reading 0)
 
1) select a Profile (0-9) on Right of screen
 
2) type 153 in box mentioned above
 
3) Push the "Apply Button"
 
4) Now push the "Save Button"
 
This new OC will run - When you select the Profile number - you set it to above.  For automatically running the Profile - Every time the PC starts, requires you to select a few more Boxes - Not seen in that image.  However ---> You Need to make sure the OC is Stable by Testing - before you select that always on Reboot
 
It is common that not every Game or Benchmark will run at the same OC settings.  You'll have to Test your PC

Got it.  Thanks.  In my case, my Score was 42.  I did as you said (using 42 as the value) and then ran a Test on that VF Curve Tuner.  When it was done, 90 was sitting in the Score box and neither Pass nor the Fail in the Test Results box were lit.  Any idea what the 90 means (I scored 90% (an "A").  Yay?  Or. I got 90 errors and things are bad?)?  I'm assuming the lack of a Pass/Fail indicator is a bug of some kind.
 
EDIT 1:  I guess I should mention I'm using PX1 1.0.0.0
EDIT 2:  I also checked on another machine.  That one scored only 16 on the Scan, so I didn't even bother changing the GPU clock.  When I ran the Test on the defaults, it came back with the same 90 score I got on mine and, again, no Pass/Fail indicator.

I haven't modified Target Power or GPU Temperature yet.  Right now, I'm just trying to figure out how to use the basic automatic OC stuff built into PX1.  EVGA really needs to start documenting this stuff somewhere.

I think even EVGA has no idea how to use it..lol  We need to know more details about how to set memory and GPU speed clock , no care about led on their youtube video
 

What specific question do you have - that was Not covered in my earlier Posts ?  https://forums.evga.com/FindPost/2953753

The scanner score goes in the GPU Clock override box, but what about all the other configuration sliders? Power target, GPU temp target, memory clock? Do those not need to change as well? What about GPU voltage? Why does the GPU clock override not seem to stick even when saving the change to a profile?
 
Most important question, how is EVGA shipping premium hardware at $1200 to $1800 per unit and pairing it with management software that's either broken or completely undocumented?

No way a tool like this would function correctly in every environment. There are so many variables that it's not even a good joke to make.
 
Auto-OC or autovoltaging in almost every instance (looking at you, VCCIO/SA auto-voltaged motherboards at 1.34v each) tends to either forget about important values, stay too safe, or just not work at all. Even Afterburner's OC tool is useless, too, never use anything that one of these programs throws at you. They're all useless. Automatically overclocking anything is asking for trouble. The succinct answer is DON'T AUTOMATICALLY OVERCLOCK ANYTHING AND JUST PLEASE DO IT MANUALLY
 
Thankfully GPU OC is only a slightly time consuming task (since stability > raw power over the short term, don't want a 40 minute match in x or y game ending because your graphics drivers die) and depends on your use case. In most cases, I don't think a GPU OC is even needed. In some cases it can even be bad; some games react poorly to unexpected limits and manage to cause artifacting or performance stutter where there wouldn't be normally, even with a "clean" benchmark done on the OC.
 
Here I'll even be more descriptive than Cool GTX was! For emphasis!
 
In general though, just throw +500 memory offset, then add 100 until you notice visible artifacts in the benchmarking tool of your choice (heaven,3dmark,whatever). Games will tend to artifact and then crash visibly once you hit the threshold of memory OC. Then tone it down at least 2 notches for stability's sake. You can either put this back to down to 0 or leave it there for the next part.
 
Also, it's 15mhz steps per core, not 20. So the reasonable steps would be 15/30/45/60/75/90/105/120/135/150 etc; you then increase core offset by +15 (maybe start at +60 and go from there) and find the same limit, going by sets of 15. Core voltage only goes by multiples of 15 so there are no inbetween values to worry about. Note that core voltage will have a much harsher attempt on temperatures and will have more impact in games. When you hit the threshold of core OC, you will see more full on gfx driver crashes and system stalls. Pls don't set it to start on boot with the same settings. Expect to hard reset your PC at least once if really pursuing the limits.
 
Then try both together. It is more likely you will see memory artifacting before you encounter problems with core OC given that you increase both at the same time. A common OC that is fairly safe is +70/+1000 or maybe 900 for extra safety. This depends on the card + cooling, of course.

I'm not sure this is possible to do automatically without either grossly underestimating the card's performance or borderline BSODing the user's computer (making the test, thereby, useless).
 
There's no easy way out. The easy way out is to leave it at stock (which might usually be the best idea.)

I am using Afterburner and only to adjust the Fan speeds while gaming. I can at least see the GPU Temp in the Tray without using a magnifying glass. Strange this I did the VC curve test on XI and Afterburner and I do get the same results. But using these results to OC My RTX 2080 Ti did not improve my game play so I will just use the Fan speed adjustments.

Still confused on the auto scan. In MSI Afterburner it creates separate offset for different voltage and let you apply that variable curve. 
In Precision X1 that generated after Scan "score" number that you supposed to enter into GPU Clock will be fixed offset, unless I missed something painfully obvious.
Can you actually save and apply curve with variable offset?

Yes after the scan is done, apply then save to a profile.  That saves the custom curve.  It baffles me that even the EVGA people tell you to save the score as the core OC.  I guess the UI is so bad even they can't figure out how it's supposed to work.

Yes, it works. 
Also you must be on VF Curve page when loading saved profile or it won't apply the curve.

Nice video. Thank you.

very nice
