Can I use 60 degrees max. Overclock my GPU a little?

Bo

My GPU (laptop graphics chip) gets a maximum of 60 degrees warm when I play and I wanted to ask if I could overclock it when it was already so cool and if it would work.

My GPU is a NVIDIA GEFORCE 920MX

na

Better leave it in the laptop

(but will not work either)

I have a Zenbook 15 with a GTX 1660 TI maximum temperatures are 55 degrees

ca

Of course it works. In my laptop I can overclock the GTX 1050 wonderfully

Bo

I can imagine why, but could you explain to me exactly why I should leave it? Will it work or what?

Gl

No, better leave it. That would not work with the lame graphics chip anyway.

na

Anyway i would leave that in the laptop

ps. Thought he meant the CPU.

Bo

Thank you!

na

It will bring something… Maybe 5-10%

but a laptop is not a PC and therefore has limited cooling options.

I could imagine that your fans are already running at their limit

ca

He thought it was the CPU, you can overclock the Gpu. It brings a lot, but does not go beyond the 500 MHz mark… Otherwise, it could cut the lifespan properly.

na

Well on the temp. Should he be careful as I said limited cooling options.

ca

Ik ik, mine is not overclocked with 70 degrees on the highest fan setting not exactly easy…

na

I'll try that with mine and see if it works.

na

That's what I said -.

ca

It actually brings me a lot.

Bo

I still have a cooling pad

Bo

I also just cooled my laptop and put in a new thermal paste. The temperatures are wonderful

na

Okay let's see me run tomorrow let's see if I can overvolt to save electricity and keep the life going.

ca

Overvolten goes as far as I don't know in the laptop, you would need an unlocked gpu, but changing the MHz is definitely for me.

na

How much do you have in idle with me that's 20 degrees

ps. The cooling of the Zenbook is really awesome! I can only recommend further

Bo

500 MHz core clock or memory clock?

na

For sure? That would make even more sense in the laptop -.

na

Core clock

ca

You make the core clock to + 250Mhz, the memory to 400

Bo

I have 36 degrees

na

With my GTX 1080 TI in my PC, I only got out 225 core clock -.

Bo

At MSI Afterburner I can only get that to 135 (core clock) and 400 memory clock. I should try adding more volts?

na

If he smears and.

ca

Oh, that was undervolten lol

Well, in Afterburner I didn't have the option for the volt. You have to look at your stop

na

No, that would only be at the expense of the battery and shorten the lifespan!

na

Haha XD

Bo

I don't have the option either, but it works with the NVIDIA profile inspector

ca

If more volts go, you can e.g. Add 0.05 or 0.10V. BE CAREFUL! That can fry the graphics card.

Bo

Either way, the battery doesn't matter to me I have it constantly charging

Bo

Would 0.05 be too much or does it work and would it help?

na

Then it's about the lifetime and the heat! Extreme!

Bo

Either way, I have a PC coming up soon so life time is not that important to me

na

You have to try it! If you can undervolt it can help too! That would be the best!

na

Whoever does not hear feels.

Bo

I once undervolted my CPU and that made my FPS pretty low

Bo

How should the undervoltes help with the GPU, which doesn't have high temperatures anyway?

na

That doesn't always have to help I undervolted my ryzen 7 1700X and beat it to 4GHZ.

na

Where you can better overclock?

Bo

How now did you clock it to 4Ghz yourself or did that work yourself?

na

I made that by myself

na

Nothing comes by itself.

ca

The best thing to do is to step in 0.01 steps if possible. Changing the voltage in small quantities has an extremely large impact. So you have to be really careful. And as lul000 says, warmth and lifetime are also badly affected.

Bo

Perhaps that could explain why undervolten didn't do me much good. Can you tell me which program you undervolted and clocked it up with?

na

I did it in the bios but I can't do it on the laptop

Bo

And I do that until my laptop crashes or what?

ca

But he's also talking about the CPU and not the gpu… Lol

Bo

Either way, I can't change anything on the BIOS

na

Precisely! I did that back then too

Bo

I'm aware. I'm talking to him about the CPU and with you about the GPU

na

Comes because it's a laptop

ca

Well, I wouldn't go that far. If you can feel your way up to 0.05, that's fine.

na

To turn on.

Bo

Should I still try to do it with a program?

Bo

What do you mean by "turn on"?

se

Of course its possible.

Important: the battery will empty faster when overclocking.

If this is possible, first increase the power limit.

Then start increasing the core clock and core voltage.

I also recommend that you always go up with the MemoryClock.

You will be able to turn up the memory clock a lot more than the core clock (and that also makes a difference)

It's best to do some stress testing. It's best to read this through: https://www.wepc.com/how-to/stress-test-graphics-card/

In order to save some battery then I would undervolt the CPU.

Means you turn the power supply from the CPU down as far as possible, but without restricting the CPU. Means CPU gets less power but still runs equally well.

It's best to read this through: https://www.notebookcheck.net/...120.0.html

And don't forget to do a lot of stress tests.

na

Will not work with the CPU only with the GPU

Bo

Undervolt or overclock?

na

Switch on again and hope that nothing happened

na

Both

You can't overclock the CPU in the rag!

Bo

So to summarize it all now: CPU I shouldn't do anything. GPU I could go to 0.05V more and +400 memory clock and +100 core clock. Right?

Bo

Undervolting worked on the laptop with ThrottleStop

na

Yes, but in small steps.

Bo

Thank you!

na

Let the patient know if the patient is still alive.

Bo

I will tell you about my adventure.

na

Ok XD

Bo

Good to know that I shouldn't add a bit more volts because everything else will crash. Let's see how it looks with core and memory clock hm.

na

OK?

Bo

"OK?" In the sense of weird that this is not possible or in the sense of that itchy net? Xd

na

But it should actually crash

Bo

Habs jz on +100 core and +200 memory clock runs well

na

And temperatures?

Bo

Temperatures were good. I have now booked everything back because it was quite unstable. Too bad.

na

That's what I said

Overclock processor? ge georgefriend
