Hello everyone. I really need your help. I'm new at overclocking but I'm getting confused. I got a new GPU, an Asus Strix 1080 Ti OC. Can someone please explain something to me that I'm probably missing?

They say: "Base and boost clocks are set at 1,569MHz and 1,683MHz, respectively - up from 1,481MHz and 1,582MHz on Nvidia's Founders Edition - but the 11GB GDDR5X frame buffer remains clocked at a default 11Gbps. Users wanting to turn things up another notch can install the free-to-download Asus GPU Tweak software utility and activate an OC profile that further raises boost clock to 1,708MHz and sets memory to an effective 11,100MHz."
However, my card is running at 1950MHz in gaming... why is the value I'm seeing so much higher than those in the review? I have tried messing with Asus GPU Tweak II and even if I change modes from OC to Gaming or just Silent, the core clock is still much higher than what those reviews report.

They say: "Our sample from ASUS seemed to ship with the OC Mode enabled by default (we did not install ASUS’ GPU Tweak II software to manually enable it). Operating frequencies for the OC Mode are 1595MHz Core, 1709MHz Boost, and 1389MHz (11,112MHz effective) memory. The alternative – Gaming – mode drops the boost clock to 1683MHz, according to ASUS."
Why am I seeing so much higher clock speeds without doing anything? What am I missing?
Thanks in advance for your input and help.
