I'm looking for opinions on under-clocking my GPU. ,my GPU outperforms my CPU by far. Here's the deal, i have been clocking this card for a while with msi afterburner. when i overclock the core clock a bit i LOSE fps in game. But when i Underclock the vram speed, core clock, and voltage (to be 'on par' with my cpu) i gain 5-15 fps in game and the games run a lot more stable.
My rig: .. dont bash me too hard..
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 x2 +5600 2.81 ghz
GPU: Geforce GTX 260 896mb
RAM: 4gb 667mhz ddr2 ram
PSU: 500w
This system my seem weak but it preforms well beyond expectations:
-i get 50+ fps in L4D2 on ultra
-30-60fps in Skyrim on med/high settings
-60+ fps in Fallout 3 on ultra
-30-40 fps in gta iv on med setting.... And so on
My Gpu's Stock settings:
Clock: 576mhz
Mem: 999mhz
Core Voltage: 1113 mv
Setting after my underclocking:
Clock: 450
Mem: 750
Voltage: 1030
WHAT DO YOU THINK WOULD BE THE BEST UNDERCLOCK, WHAT SHOULD I CHANGE, AND WHY DO YOU THINK WHEN I UNDERCLOCK MY GPU I GAIN FPS IN GAME??
-Thanks for your time!
