Hey guys , so i have noticed that my Gigabyte GTX 1070 Windforce 2x OC when running Heaven's Benchmark is stable with my OC i think. Clock speeds, memory clock, Temps, and Power are normal, but the voltage limit is always on 1. (NO artifacts either) Is this an issue with the power going it to the card or just GPU BOOST 3.0 functioning as intended.

It should be pretty safe to go as high as you wish in precisionX. It will give a scary message about increasing voltage but the card should be hard capped at the bios level and not allow a dangerous level of voltage.

Good Luck!

Voltage limit 1 simply means you have hit the max power draw for the card settings. Looking at your screenshots I notice that in precision you have your power target at 111% but have not raised your power limit (on left hand side along the curve). Increasing this might give you just a little more juice to work with. Other than that it looks like a solid OC.

How much % do you recommend to increase it ?
