i buy msi gtx 1060 oc when i open msi gaming app and chose oc mode it say this product not supported please need help

Are you using an MSI motherboard?

TechyInAZ · Jun 14, 2018

OC mode basically adds ZERO performance in games since it only overclocks the GPU an extra 20-25mhz. Your better off installing MSI Afterburner and doing a full overclock when can net you a 10% boost in FPS vs 1%.

I don't know why it would say that. However you don't need the app that comes with the card to be able to overclock it (the app may still have other useful stuff you want).
To start with, all modern NVidia GPUs overclock themselves depending on temperature and power use, it's called GPU boost 3.0, I have a 1060 6GB and it runs at about 2000 MHz to start with and then settles around 1960 MHz.....this is much higher than it's advertised boost speed.

If you want to overclock higher than this, then MSI afterburner is a simple, easy to use program you could use.....plus it has the added advantage of being able to display CPU and GPU information as well as frame rates on screen while you're playing.

i use msi h110m gaming

pete_101 :

so is the problem with my gpu or the msi gaming app ??? and what the settings should i put if i use msi afterburner for my gtx 1060 oc

saske201240 · Jun 14, 2018

TechyInAZ :

but its already say my gtx 1060 is oc can i oc more ?? and i think i get cheated with this gtx cause its say this product not supported when i chose oc mode in msi gaming app i spent last 3 days searching for solution but there s nothing

All graphics cards can be overclocked. It's just a glitch with the software. I recommend manually overclocking yourself.

so what best settings for my gtx 1060 oc to oc with afterburner ??? or just i take every thing on high level ??

pete_101 · Jun 14, 2018

You're not really getting cheated when you buy an oc card. They usually have better GPUs (they bin them, and use the better ones for the higher end cards), also the coolers and power delivery is usually better too. But you don't need their software to overclock them even higher.

And no, don't go setting everything to maximum in afterburner. Slowly increase the clock speeds and memory, start with say 5% which is around 100 MHz and check it's running stable and not too hot. If it's fine then increase it another 50 MHz and so on.

saske201240 · Jun 14, 2018

pete_101 :

what about core voltage and power limit and temp limit ?? do i get them to high lvl or just keep it and just increase the clock speed and memory ??

pete_101 · Jun 14, 2018

saske201240 :

You can increase the power limit a bit. Core voltage is a bit tricky, if you don't need to change it then leave it alone, but if you can't get much of a stable overclock then you may need to increase it slightly. Just be aware that the more voltage you put into any processor the hotter it gets, even as little as 100mv can have a huge effect.

There are overclocking forums who may know the best settings, or someone here may come up with some good suggestions on the settings.

thx alot for your help ^_^ and sorry for disturbing you

Its overclocked from the factory. I wouldnt bother overclocking it much further as the cooler isnt the best on that model.

saske201240 · Jun 15, 2018

RobCrezz :

yeh i know that but i cant chose oc mode in msi gaming app it say this product not supported that mean i cant reach the oc mode on my card so what i should do ?? i cant make re7 or crossout on ultra settings theres a drop in fps so i need to go to oc mode btw my pc have cori 7 7700 k with 16 ram 3000mhz vengeance and motherboard msi h110m gaming .power supply 500 w . and 128 ssd nd the monitor asus 60 hz ...... so is the problem having drop fps cause of my card or another like cpu .ram . motherboard

RobCrezz · Jun 15, 2018

You dont need to do anything. Its overclocked from the factory.

saske201240 · Jun 15, 2018

RobCrezz :

so why i have drop in fps ??

Onus · Jun 15, 2018

The MSI Gaming App is probably only looking at your motherboard, which, as it indicates, is not a supported model (you need a "Z" series motherboard to overclock the CPU, which must be an unlocked "K" series chip). For graphics card overclocking, MSI's Afterburner, as described, is what you want to use. NVidia's current generation has its boost mode, and may also already have a factory overclock, so getting much more is rather unlikely, especially without adding voltage, although you may get a little. IMHO, adding voltage is a high-risk proposition that adds a lot of heat, and at some point can damage or destroy the card. If it takes another +.05V to reach stability at particular clocks, that's one thing, but personally I would not go higher. The "silicon lottery" plays a role here too; just because a dozen other people reach a certain frequency does not mean you will.

Settings too high in the game?

so all i need is change my motherboard so i cant have any drop in fps and to get oc mode is that what u mean ?

saske201240 · Jun 15, 2018

RobCrezz :

yes when i get all settings in the game to high i get drop in fps so i think theres a problem in one of my pc parts like cpu or gpu or mother board but iam not sure which part should i replace to solve this problem

Onus · Jun 15, 2018

Replacing the motherboard for a potential (not even certain) gain of a few FPS is not something I would do personally. If lowering graphical settings improves FPS, then overclocking your CPU isn't going to help much (if at all), since that test shows it's a graphics performance issue.
Does your card have 6GB of RAM, or 3GB? If 3GB, turn off AA (or lower it to 2xAA). You may simply need to lower certain settings to improve performance. What is the resolution of your monitor?

saske201240 · Jun 15, 2018

Onus :

my gpu have 6gb of ram and the resolution is 1920x1080 btw when i lowering the settings in the game i get stable fps but when i get it for ultra settings i get drop in fps and i know the gpu is good nd shouldnt have drop in fps but i dont know wheres the problem

Onus · Jun 15, 2018

Ultra settings are probably just too high for that card. Most likely, there is a specific setting or two that, when lowered slightly, will give you all the performance you want, and still look as good as you want.

saske201240 · Jun 15, 2018

Onus :

and i was thinking gtx 1060 6gb is enough to let me play games on ultra high so i need to change gpu to higher than this maybe gtx 1070 or 1080
