I'm currently running +222 Core and +1800 Memory right now. I can push the Core to +248 and it's still stable. Sometimes in VR I can push it even higher but it crashes around +260 Core. To my knowledge, I've never gone above 3200MHz on the main core whilst pushing it in benchmarks with the Afterburner monitor, but I've come close. I'm so glad they fixed the memory cooling issues this generation. 30 series memory cooling was horrendous! Zotac OC RTX 4090. Excellently air cooled with three fans. I don't recall it going over 70 degrees Celsius. Memory, GPU hotspot and core, using GPU-Z to monitor. The 4090 is so much better than my 3080 10 Gigabyte.
Hello Dragon, welcome ! My friend this is very good! I hadn't read reports of such a high clock. I'll try here on the Galax 4090. Thank you very much for your information!
@@hardwareandsoftwareforbegg5114 It's sometimes pointless running such a high GPU overclock on my i9-12900k as I am CPU limited in a lot of games. I'm also running DDR5 2x16 Gigabyte at 5600MHz which is also slowing my GPU frame rate down. My Zotac OC 4090 would perform better if I had the i9-13900k with 6000MHz to 8000Mhz RAM cards. Maybe I could get much closer to 3200Mhz on my GPU Core when running at full power then. I do my benchmarks on a 32:9 5120x1440p 240Hz monitor. So it's not quite 4K. It's almost one third less pixels than 4K.
I agree with you, and I believe that not even the 13900k would make a difference. I'm using one and alternating with the 7950x which is my testing target right now. I use 5200 ddr5 32gb cl 38, I haven't tried the ram overclock yet. My monitor is also 240hz, but I use it in 1920 1080. You have a very good setup. I don't think a higher frequency ram would make much difference. But I'm excited about your gpu overclocking results. I haven't tried more than 150 and 1000 on the memory clock yet. Thank you very much for your information, I will try to go further. Are you overclocking your cpu?
@@bronis_lav It always says it is unstable when I test it on Afterburner but in a game I can apply a high overclock like on my Robocop video I made last and it runs very well and stable.
1- Adjust first fan speed and others 2- Select the vf curve item and press oc scanner 3- With the left mouse button click on the line, then type "control L" (its at 1:25 in the video) , export your settings pressing aply button *your chosen frequency will appear on the msi display ( save your profile - choose a number and click with the right mouse button)
Hello Wesley, welcome ! You got the point, the stability test really takes a while. The good and old manual overclocking is still the best option. Thanks for your visit and patience my friend.
Why did you turn the core voltage all the way up? I’ve had 2 of my PC professionally optimized and OC’d and they never not once touched the core voltage meter. It’s always stayed at 0%. My 4090 is set to Curve core clock and +1500 Memory clock. Just curious as to why you turned it up all the way and what’s the pros and cons to that?
Hi... Can you explain the last step once again please? With the click @ 2900 mhz and then Ctrl-L do you cut off (limit) the maximum frequency @ 2900 mhz just to be surely stable or?? Thx.
Hello Grü , welcome. Yes, it's an easy way to keep max boost always on, in certain scenarios such as games, the frequency varies (in general to a lower level), if you leave it marked on the maximum line of your boost, everything will be more fluid. Choose the frequency in the oc line, type "control L", and click apply button. Save this profile in msi by right-clicking on any of the numbers (1-5), you will have the maximum curve frequency always active. (2900 - 2990 here) In stock using the maximum performance plan of the nvidia control panel it will always be at 2580. It is a reasonable gain without instability. Sorry if I didn't answer your question properly, feel free to leave your opinion or doubt. Very grateful for your visit my friend.
Hello Nukeman, You can use MSI Afterburner with a frequency of (+) 200 on the core clock and (+) 1500 on the memory clock. It's what I've always used, with maximum temperatures of 33 degrees in stress. (galax 4090 oc)
How is it going my friend? The memory frequency was given by the test and is stable. I tried in manual overclock to increase more reaching + 900mhz stable. But you can go further reaching up to + 1500mhz. I didn't want to use it that way, at idle this gpu already has great performance.I'm going to make a video with manual overclocking, for comparison, if you want to post your results, welcome. It is very interesting to be able to compare results and test the limits of the hardware. very grateful for your visit. Salute!

Hello Ernesto, welcome. ... "The results are considered unstable because modern GPUs have already been pushed to their limit by default. So if OC increases the frequency the power consumption will increase at a fast pace" ... The program may see it as unstable, as it is using the gpu at a higher load. If you do a stress test like 3dmark u will pass without any problems. Now I'll be posting a video with manual OC, simpler and less extensive than this one. Where we will have a much higher frequency (+200) and a memory clock increase of 800. In the video in question, the increase of frequency is only from the boost and with an increase of only 200 mhz in the memory clock calculated by the software. I believe that as you said it is just a bug in predicting the result. Thanks for your comment my friend - Salute.
@@ErnestoGarcia-ko8xq I believe it will be easy. But start small , 100 core clock and 500 memory clock. Run a good stress test and go up little by little. *im using on galax rtx 4090 oc 200 core clock and 800 memory clock now
How did you get 3000? When I ran the scanner it obviously went to curve on core clock and +200 on memory but it’s stable at +1300 (that’s as high as I went) but my core clock is always at like 2585 and in game I’ll get 2800’s sometimes. I just don’t feel like I’m getting the frames I’m getting. I’m also scared to move the core voltage slider cause idk what it does

@@hardwareandsoftwareforbegg5114 Ok thank you, i think i will have to try this👍
Hello. Can you answer pls. tell me why the memory frequency value on the left and on the graph on the right differs by one MHz?
Both during the test running MSI Afterburner, and after finding a fixed point on the graph, you will still see a reduction in load.
I want OC my 4090 but don't want to stress it too much. Tried a couple auto OC applications and not sure how I feel.
Hello Nukeman, You can use MSI Afterburner with a frequency of (+) 200 on the core clock and (+) 1500 on the memory clock. It's what I've always used, with maximum temperatures of 33 degrees in stress. (galax 4090 oc)
Would you still recommend this?
Would you recommend altering the memory clock at all or is it better to just leave it at +200?
