So I scored 14,900 on +160 core and +1200 or 1300 MEM (can't recall) in Afterburner. No dip switches and no classified in use. It will not take 165, or it insta crashes at the start. Perf cap reason is Vrel for the most part with occasional power limit but draws a max of about 460W on the LN2 BIOS.
I know my ram is trash and my CPU clock is stock, I assume those will help my score, by how much? I don't know. That is where I need to gain a better understanding of how it all works.
I assume I need to add some voltage with classified and or get the temps down to move forward? Do you need PX1 to use the classified tool? I don't even want to touch PX1. I would rather wait till they fix the firmware bricking the OLED screen. I think I got an OK card.
Sort of new to GPU OC aside from core/mem sliders. I have read a lot but I'm sure I'm missing some basic stuff that would help me out. I'm also on the most recent hot fix driver and I'm sure that is holding me back as well. I do game a lot so I need something that is stable in games.
