![]() After the memory slider was past +350 on the core, the overall Time Spy score started to decrease. Although the memory slider can be nearly maxed out and still finish the benchmark. Next, we started playing with the memory clock speed. Anything past that, 3DMark, and in some cases the entire system, would crash. The highest we could get the boost clock to was an increase of +55 on the core which gave us an overall clock speed of 2055 MHz. Running 3DMark Time Spy in after each increase to the boost clock. Next, we started increasing the GPU Boost Clock by increments of 10. In the case of the Strix 2080 Ti, it increased the power target by 25 to 125%. First, we increased to power target as high as possible. We set the GPU Tweak II to professional mode and started tweaking. Next, we started playing around with the clock speed of both the memory and the GPU clock speed using GPU Tweak II. I got my answer, 89☌ with a max overclock of 2040 MHz. I just wanted to see how hot the top card would get. Just for fun, we attempted to overclock the top card, with SLI disabled. While running FurMark the max temp hit 60☌. After close to an hour of benchmarking we ran FurMark as one of our benchmarks. Next, we started testing the games we benchmarked for this review. The Strix 2080 Ti, at stock, idled at 38☌. ![]() The first temp recorded was the stock idle temperature after a couple hours at idle. We do our best to keep the ambient temperature right around 20☌ during testing. The ambient temperature at the time of testing was 20☌ or about 68☏. The max temp while gaming for well over an hour was also recorded. To Validate our overclock, we ran 3DMark Time Spy. To monitor temperatures, we used both GPU Tweak II and Hardware Monitor. We only overclocked the GPU and the i9-9900K at its stock speeds. That's pretty much it, I'd like to see your scores and overclocks to compare with mine, if you have any questions feel free to ask.For overclocking, we used ASUS GPU Tweak II for monitoring and adjusting GPU clock and memory speeds. Here is a little review of what you can expect with games. Under Fan Speed select User Define then click the little gear beside it and it brings up this below, move the boxes to your desired fan speed (left) and temp (bottom) then click save Apply and Save again. ROG Strix RX 460 runs very cool and I doubt you'll need to set a fan curve but if you want to here is how. Score with our overclock, max temp was a chilly 60☌ shown in GPU Tweak II. Slide the GPU Voltage to 100% and Power Target to 50%, slide the GPU Clock to 1371MHz and slide the Memory Clock to 7791MHz then click Apply and Save. Under Profiles then under Silent Mode select User Mode 1 which I changed to my name NATE152. Now let's overclock it to the max and see what we get, try these settings they should work pretty well.Ĭlick Professional Mode at the bottom right and it brings up this below. Score in OC Mode, my 6700k is overclocked to 4.75GHz. Open Unigine Valley, at the top left click benchmark and let it run to completion. We're running the benchmark at 1920 x 1080 with the highest settings with anti-aliasing turned off. ![]() I'll do the first test in OC Mode then we'll do a test with our overclock. ROG RX 460 has three modes: Silent Mode, Gaming Mode and OC Mode. Open GPU Tweak II and click the gear at the top right in red and under Tuning Settings check " Apply settings each time GPU Tweak II starts", uncheck everything else then click Apply and Save. We'll use unigine valley to see our performance gain and here's the free download. First you'll need to install GPU Tweak II from the ASUS support center, as of now the latest version is 1.3.9.7 If you'd like to overclock it, in a few easy steps you'll have it running at its maximum performance. See if you can do even better and join the discussion here! For those of you who snatched up an ROG Strix RX 460 recently, one of our most dedicated forum contributors - Nate152 has put together an easy guide for you to get the most out of your card.
