why not both

@GirlBeGood depends, are you in college?
because in all reality, get a chromebook for on the go, and invest most of your money into a nice ass desktop
unless you really need portability desktop is way better value
you're a degenerate...but I agree
@Wayne going over the highest auto-voltage doesnt necessarily kill the card fast enough for it to matter lmao
of course you need to know what you're doing
Now personally i would not advise going higher than the regulator circuit allows
I'm fully aware of that, going like 50mv over isn't even close to 8% over peak anyways
well i've had a r7 240 running at 1.4v (max the regulator will allow) for about a year now
What's the typical max voltage under load?
i think it was like .9v or 1v one of the two
lemme check the bios if i still have it
I douuuubbbt it
My GTX 760's will go up to 1200mV
Continuously as a max
Never heard of a max under like 1100mv
nevermind
ok its 1.15v max
Yeah, but you wanna measure max so you know your peak after the increase
That's like 21% higher then
i mean its the max the card can physically do without physically modifying it
How much benefit do you actually get out of that extra .25v though? What's the max freq for no-voltage OC versus that 1.4v?
Stable ofc
no voltage OC is +300mhz, 1.3v gets +780mhz, but i keep it at 1.4v because i want to see when itll die since its a cheap card
And you game with that +780 no issues?
the card runs at 780mhz max without overclock
yeah
though im not personally using the card anymore
And there's no freq difference between 1.3 and 1.4?
still, its in my household getting used daily (lmfao fallout 4)
correct
if there is, its too small for me to care to measure
What's the cards total frequency?
Before oc
730, 780 when it goes into the manufacturer's boost clock
oh yeah i forgot to mention 1.3v helps with memory overclocking a bit but its not by much
the card doesnt memory OC very well anyways
There's a 45% difference in frequency for that 21% increase in voltage. I mean, I won't believe that until I see it, because you get less return in a sloped path, the higher the voltage gets.
