    I didn't really consider the previous generation at all!

    My last 8800 GTS lasted 9.5 years so if this card even goes half that length I thought it important that I go for as new a generation as possible and something that's operating comfortably within it's capabilities. Based on anecdotal observations of cards in mine and family computers the super dooper maxed out oc'd extreme cards don't tend to last as long. (Of course they are probably working harder too!)

    tldr: I didn't rule out the 980ti specifically but I decided early on to pick from the 10 series generation because if how long I expect to have it.

    got my gigabyte 1080ti aorus yesterday. Only getting around to benching it with my 6700k now.

    firestrike: 21,424

    best i could get with my evga 1080 ftw was around 18,500 so i am pretty happy :D, the Aorus is a surprisingly quite card as well.

    Could only manage a +50core +100memory on it, dont know if volts are unlocked so maybe theres more in it..

    Only got my msi 1080ti couple days ago. Beast of the card, overclocked keeps temperature around 74 degrees in closed case, when my previous 980ti was reaching 84 :)

    Quick results from Firestrike ultra 13317 http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/19437713?

    What brand of card you got? Did some fiddling with my case fans to get better airflow and put a super aggressive fan curve on it and mine goes up to max 65 degree's

    Max I got on standard fire strike was 21700, core sits around 1980 and I got +490 on memory. Must say delighted with the gigabyte aorus

    Well, hate myself already, but:
    1 open your case
    2 set all your fans at 100%
    3 start benching

    I bet with your ram running at 3200 mhz you can beat my score

    The question is already answered in the thread title. It's pure "Joystick" waggling.
    There are valid reasons to overclock, usually to eek the last bit of performance out of an older system, or to achieve those few extra frames to get the most out of high refresh rate monitors. Enthusiasts having a bit of fun overclocking, pave the way for others to have an idea how much more they could get out of their system, and I'd say even hardware companies are interested in the numbers for future tweaks and revisions.

    5 frames will not make a difference when your game is at 120 fps I agree, but situation changes when you play at lets say 4k resolution and game dips to 40fps. Then extra 5 fps does make a huge difference.

    Well I'm using my current overclock at the moment as it gives me a nice little boost at 4k gaming performance. But to be honest its more about seeing how far I can push things and how they stack up to other systems. I can't stand knowing that my PC parts can perform better and not do anything about it :)

    CPU over clocking is a bit different though as I find my whole system is a lot quicker at day to day things so that's a must for me

    I didn't touch the volts or power limit, as both options are locked. I tried to unlock it using guides found here and there, but no luck so far.

    Not happening it seems. I can run benchmarks with clocks from yesterday no problem, but that's the maximum :(
    If I even touch power limit or voltage 3dmark will crash straight away.

    I bought DDR4 3000MHz RAM when I was building the computer and I just whacked it into the motherboard without changing any settings and it turns out it has been running at 2166MHz.

    So I bumped it up to 3000 in the BIOS today and it gave a modest but noticeable increase!

    Tweaked a few more things:

    I enabled the XMP profile for the RAM but for some strange reason this seemed to prevent the Intel Turbo Boost from working correctly. So I switched to allowing the mainboard (ASUS) control the turbo-boost (with matched core speeds or whatever it's called). This gives another small upgrade:

    Makes quite a difference! Went to around 2.0Ghz stable on mine after fitting the hybrid kit and this is on a SC (so reference) design.

    Don't know if it's of interested to anyone but tweaked the Bios again and this time allowed Asus to control the turbo boost except without all the cores being synced:

    Timespy went up slightly and Firestrike went down!!


    Time Spy 1.0: 5991
    http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/20267256?
    Will definitely go above 6k if I was to overclock either the processor or the graphics card but I'm still hopeful I might be able to get to 6000 without any "direct" overclock.

    Firestrike 1.1: 15459
    http://www.3dmark.com/fs/12783363
    No idea why it went down.


    One thing I noticed is that when the ASUS mainboard is managing the turbo boost (speed stepping still active) at 4.2GHz (top turbo for 6700k) the board is pushing up to 1.379V through each core of the i7. It seems a little high - but I never checked what it was prior to my RAM and processor tweaking.

    I fear this is a bit of a blog for me at the moment but this is my last post for the time being (I promise):

    I've settled on a modest 4.5GHz overclock on the 6700k with a max Voltage of 1.315V (stock for me was 1.282V).

    And I've pushed an extra 145MHz onto the 1070 GPU Clock and 300MHz onto the GPU Memory Clock. I didn't trying upping the voltage on the 1070.

    Thanks, I had it at 4.2 but every 7 or 8 days would crash( even though stable with prime95 for 5-6 hours and tbh didnt spend that long overclocking it ) so i just reduced it to 4.0 for 24/7 and loosened the memory timings. Kid uses it a lot to watch youtube, any instability is 110% not worth the grief lol.
    Ill take a look at it sometime again, definitely wont go far above 4.2, needs far to much juice.

    Yea afair, those x99 chips didn't overclock that well. The newest x299 skylake-x chips seem to overclock fairly high a bit like the skylake, kaby lake and coffee lake chips.

    yeah, they suck at overclocking tbh. I only built this in April( minus 1080Ti ), was going to go Ryzen but didnt like the memory situation at the time and number of dimm slots. Skylake i knew would be too expensive and not very robust initially so just went with an older x99 build to replace my aging 7-8 year old x58.
    Great to see AMD shake up the market, now a Threadripper build would be nice lol
