Why do I need more GPU when there hasn't been a half decent game released in 10+ years?

That's the biggest problem I see for GPU manufacturers. Simply for power and thermal upgrades, as well as DX features, I'll probably 'upgrade' to a GTX 1660, but that card is so much faster than this one, on less power, and this one already does everythingI need it to so. Hrel - Saturday, Malink My R9 280x still maxes or nearly maxes everything I play.

Naturally, these results cannot be taken as representative of all GTX 1660 cards, but results here can offer some insight. Lastly, all previous adjustments were combined for an overall overclock. The third was overclocking the GPU by +100MHz in practice, observed clocks were in the mid 1900MHz. The second was overclocking the GDDR5 memory by 1Gbps. First was a baseline, consisting of 100% overvoltage and max temperature limits power limit is already set to a soft cap of 130W at stock. Either way, Maxwell 2 and Pascal certainly have much to thank for high clockspeeds for Maxwell 2, it was a combination of high efficiency and ample overclocking headroom, while Pascal took advantage of the FinFET process to ramp up the clocks to new heights.Ī total of four different overclocks were tested via EVGA's Precision X1 unfortunately, we were not able to get the auto OC scanning functionality to fully work. While NVIDIA does support overclocking, they have limited actual overvolting, and instead providing the ability to unlock 1-2 more boost bins and associated voltages. Last, but not least, we'll take a look at overclocking.
