Overclocking

The Gainward GTX 980 Ti Phoenix  works at a 1152MHz base clock, while the reference GPU base clock is set at 1000MHz. The overclocking potential is good considering that this is a factory overclocked card. Using standard voltage and AUTO fan settings we managed to push the GPU 140MHz over the factory clocks. This resulted in a Boost clocks up to 1463MHz. Memory overclocking is vital in any attempt to squeeze out more performance from a graphics card. The memory produced average results with a total 750MHz (effective GDDR5) overclock. Note that each sample overclocks differently and therefore our results can serve only as guideline for what you can achieve with another GTX 980 Ti.
