Just did some undervolting on my TUF Rtx 3080 and i actually got higher boost clock and lower temps and noise...amazing
You mind sharing your settings? I've got the same card and I cant seem to get it to make too much of a difference
@@arunalukariyawasam my card would boost between 1785 and 1815, and 980mv. I found it stable at 818mv and 1815 max boost clock. Power consumption is at 250 watts,
@@sorincosma5185 Thank you!
@@sorincosma5185 My MSI RTX 3090 Gaming X Trio starts off at 1950 but as soon as it hits 62 degrees it downclocks to 1850 then the same clock speeds as yours. I've seen a few people say the thermal pads on the 3000 series GPU'S are poor so i might change mine. I can get mine to settle at 1860mhz i had it previously at 1905 but can't remember what mv it was set to.
@@originalityisdead.9513 some games boost higher than others, i found if i want to get the max overclock i can with my card, in some games i can get 2050 mhz and others with the exact same settings, won't go higher than 1850. So i decided just to undervolt, good performance and much less heat, the 5% difference when you OC is not really worth it
Great tutorial, the only one that actually worked for me. It can’t be understated how helpful people taking the time to assist are
I found Metro Exodus Enhanced’s benchmark to be the quickest way to find instability.
Well done, my man. You have a gift of explaining stuff fast and simple. Thank you for your effort.
Thank you so much for this, especially for the shift drag mouse and enter trick, you saved me quite a bit of stress!😅 I never thought undervolting was this easy, the other videos on youtube make it seem much more complicated, yours is the best!
I got 72c from 82 under load!!
@@DraxTheDestroyer noicee
Thank you so much for this. I have an EVGA 3080 FTW3 Ultra and I was able to undervolt mine to .9 at 1905 and it went from 75C to around 65-66C and my FPS increased
Great tutorial. I used to undervolt before but I never limited my mhz before. Things are much better now. Thanks!
Awsome guide, detailed and easy to understand, wish more people did it like this! I now have my Gigabyte RTX 3060 12GB @ 1900 MHz and 0.850v everything stable and my temps went down about 10 degrees celsius. Dont notice much performance loss either so this is totally worth it, the lower temps/power-usage the better, cheers!
This is by far the easiest to follow guide I've found. Thank you!
For anyone struggling to flatten the line, simply select the square next to the 950 one and hit shift + enter and then type your frequency number and hit enter, it will flatten the 950 square and everything else.
The curve editor is so buggy - thought it was just me.
didn't help. MSI Afterburner is one of the worst software ever, and ppl are still using it religiously. It's a piece of dilutated shit
dosnt work
does changing this setting make a big difference. Like fps wise. I don't care if its like 4 fps extra. I just need 30 fps. And I'm at 20.
@@nichescenes You'll get increased FPS since your GPU isn't maxing out as fast.
Thank you so much, after so much researching you are the first that properly explained how to do it, thanks infinitely!
What a beautiful, to the point tutorial! Superbly well done! ❤️
Great video, helped me and my friend undervolt the new 1660 Super I bought for him. Thanks so much! It was so hot before, but we're at mid 70s now :)
thank you so much for making this. It is very easy and quick unlike other guides.
easily best tutorial on undervolting. I was worried and confused on the process and this video got me 10 degrees lower in 2 minutes~! CHeers thansks for video chapters
Tried to get my head around this for a while with articles and videos. Your video was the simplest to understand and I finally understood. Thank you
Me too
This is the simplest guide explained in simple words. Thank you :)
I really love tutorial like this, going straight to the point, fast and clear, thank a lot!
i think this channel may start growing soon. I got recommended one of the videos randomly and have now spend hours here
That kinda freaks me out but I guess it's good news! Thanks!
Finally! I've been looking for this! Thank man!
This was extremely helpful. I've never used afterburner before, and was able to do a quick undervolt, thanks.
dude you saved my day. works like a charm. thanks a lot. easy tutorial
Thank you so much! Undervolted my RTX 2080ti to 1880 MHz at 875mV = stable, temp reduced by around -10°C and power consumption by -50 to -75 W / no performance loss 😎👍
Thank you! Lowered my temps by about 10 degrees and I'm pretty sure I can get it lower!
This is excellent, thanks. Picked up a new 3080ti for a good price a few months ago (upgrade from a 980ti!) and it was damn noisy. Managed to get it down from 900mv to 750mv at a stable 1740mhz. Much quieter and consuming around 280 watts from 330 watts! (Cyberpunk at 4k with goodies maxed). Cheers!
Don't forget that you can also overclock even if you undervolt to get more perf with better temps and stability, for example my 2060 can run around 100+ core clock and 700+ mem clock but is still undervolted at more than 10% less voltage and under 60° at 100% charge
Can I get your undervolt settings if you don’t mind
@@Kuppyed Undervolting is very dependant on your gpu. He could've gotten a better quality silicon which can run on lower voltages than yours, so you have to undervolt yourself. Don't look for anyone to give you their settings because it's very likely they won't work.
It's one of the first steps in the tutorial. It's to give you an initial benchmark.
So you undervolt first then Overclock after? Or Overclock first then undervolt later?
@@konchy same process as in the video, start at stock voltage, higher clock, and then see how low you can get the voltage on that speed.
this is the best and only undervolt guide I needed
This was so helpful! Thank you!
just Undervolted my 3070ti wow saving around 90watt of power and running a lot cooler.. your tutorial was brill easy to follow cheers again
What was your sweet spot for your 3070ti?
omfg thank you most comprehensive msi tutorial I've seen so far.
Edit:2024 and still helpful. bold people are awesome
Though I felt it was pretty basic I'm glad it helped!
@@TechIlliterate Hmm do you have any social media I can talk to you on, I got my first gaming laptop ever, and im confused still
Bit late to the party but I got a cheap 2080 ti blower. After 10 mins running at 84. 1 play with the undervolt settings and I'm running at 73/74. No drops in FPS at all. Thanks man
Legend, easy to follow guide, thanks
Thx for this. Rarely I find so useful videos. Saved my warhammer 3 game with this as it ran my 3070 on super hot. No more
Thank you!!!!!! I have a Nvidia 3060 12gb that would constantly crash in graphically heavy games like BeamNG or GTA 5. I undervolted and applied aggressive fan use and now I have no problems and it keeps the temps good! Thanks again 30 min into BeamNG and no crashing :)
Subscribed, amazing no nonsense tutorial, thank you!
Great tutorial! Very good explanation!
Thanks! working and a bit of boost and less heat!
Thank you so much!! It's almost 30c room temp, I'm pushing my Gigabyte 3070 Gaming OC really hard running 4K. Was running up to 80c on the GPU according to rivatuner.
I found your video, ripped my curve down to 950mv at the same core clock that was active with game running it up. I ripped it down 10c without a loss of performance!! THANKS!🙌
The shift + left click thing had me seriously hung up with the fact that if you click on the dot that's along the curve, the entire curve will move. Had me stumped for a considerable amount of time :(
I'm doing it right now, shift entering is not applying. 😑
Yeah, it's not working.
hold shift and double tap enter
@@kruna3014 hold shift, then double tap enter*
hold shit and enter
From my thorough testing:
1890 MHz @ 900mV on Turing
1897 MHz @ 875mV on Ampere
Best balance of performance and power draw on 90% of cards.Also takes in consideration brief boost of clock by 15MHz at around 60°C. So card is stable under any conditions.
Thanks, worked for me on my 1660!
While the score using that setting was higher than using the OC scanner, it wasn't as high as manually overclocking (+100).
The temperature was only 4 degrees warmer than the undervolt, so I decided that 66 degrees is a good price for extra performance.
That said, undervolting did lower my temperatures by 1 degree compared to stock (and OC scanner) :)
my 3080 can run at like 80C at 800mV 1800MHz in a
Thank you so much!!
Weird, I have an RTX 3060 and my games crashes, it's not stable with these settings.
@@larouche7644 if it's desktop 3060, those are kind of trash bins, might have to increase voltage a bit.
good guide you deserve 1 million subs keep up the good job
Very nicely explained.
For testing stability i recommend Raytracing Games / Synthetic benchmarks
Great tutorial! Undervolted my 1050 4gb to 850mv and 1645 mhz with a temperature loss of 10-12ish degrees. Might tweak the frequency a little more to see if i can drop even a little bit the tempereture down. (Playing nfs heat it went from 75 celsius to 62 which is great.
Thanks a lot man , i didnt made a big adjustment but my gpu temps dropped 2C on my KFA2 3080ti :) It helped a lot , especially because i cant put on the memory cooler on it as it doesnt fit on my new motherboard . Amazing ! Subscribed !
Thank you, very simple and easy to understand video.
Great and short video. Thanks for the info!
Thank you, it really helped!
Very nice video, thank you very much!
thank you so much man!, it help me a lot
Great stuff there you made it so easy asI also have reduced my mhz on me dram and it really stabilized my system and I'll be trying the undervolting asap. Thanks for the tip!!!
Only tutorial for this that doesn't suck. This actually works.
really helpful for undervolting.. thanks
Great video - quick to the point, and clear instructions. thanks!
Glad you liked it! Thanks.
This gave my asus 3060 much more stability- I still need to test a few more things out... but, so far following these specs im seeing a dramatic improvement- Thank you.
I was wondering if its safe or not and didn't want to mess with the settings you explained it pretty good now I am really happy with the results i got after undervolting. I really appreciate for the video thanks a lot for the video ❤.
Thank you for the guide! I am unable to undervolt my laptop's CPU because of the manufacturer lock on the BIOS but applying your guide to my laptop's RTX 2060 seems to have helped right away! My computer is a fair bit cooler and I have been experiencing less stuttering in games since I set up the new curve.
really amazing video man :)
Hello I just want to thank you for this video help me a lot bro love from the Philippines ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for the video. I was able to get my GTX 1080 FE @ 800mV, 1700MHz, +350 on the memory
thank you mean I did this but overclock my cpu long time ago, now my gpu is killing it thank men
You should add that undervolting is an active way to reduce or eliminate coil whine.
My MSI 2060 Ventus has so bad coil whine in default settings. I couldn't get it to stop but reduce it to a point where I don't really notice it anymore.
So I got better Temps, higher frequency, more stable card and reduced coil whine!
i have coil whine too my 3060Ti but couldn't reduce it even if i undervolt.. i think i'm missing something
@@CygnusX-11 Same with my 3060ti, not that I care but people shouldnt expect miracles
@@Thomas_Sch i actually managed to undervolt it to 1770MHz @ 880mV.. the noise reduced significantly as Temps never exceed 65c. Performance remains the same. ( i have the Asus Dual V2 variant )
I was able to eliminate coil whine on my last pc by simply disabling EIST in the bios. Cheers.
@@smokinamby EIST is for CPUs. Not GPUs
thanks for the video i got my temps 20 degrees cooler!!
just tried something with afterburner, not too sure what effect it have beside the temperature. i removed the link between power and temp limit. then reduced the temp limit and set the temperature as the primary focus. the 2 games i play at the time didnt get a fps drop but the temperature dropped and stayed around the limit i set.
watched your video and undervolted my Zotac 1070 mini, 875mV at 1820mHz stable, same performance but the temps were 12°C lower, plus consumes less power too 👍
thanks, simple, easy, quick and direct to the point/tutorial while keeping it informative.
zotac rtx 3060 twin edge oc 12gb
i use kombustor to stress and load my gpu,
stock is 1860+mhz clock, 7500mhz mem, 75-80c temp, 160-170w pwr usage (in kombustor)
undervolted to 1802mhz clock and 850mV voltage, now i got 1800-1807mhz clocl, 7500mhz mem, 65-70c temp and 110-120w pwr usage (in kombustor)
not sure how it will affect on actual gameplay (mw2) but probably this is good since i turn most of settings to low.
Worked for me, thanks.
Simple and clear explanation. Thank you.
Thank you. pretty easy to undestand.!
great video, thank you :)
most underrated tech channel on youtube
You're too kind.
Fantastic video. Thx.
Ty I’m getting a computer soon and I’m gonna use this I also like how you showed how sometimes it will crash and you weren’t fake and cut it out
If u buy a prebuilt, more than likely (unless u spend well over $2k, this won’t apply to u at all. If u build your own and purchase a 80 or 90 series NVIDIA gpu, or a 4070 ti super, then this might benefit u depending on your case and cooling set up.
THANKS SO MUCH ITS ALL CLEAR NOW
good video, simple and short.
i have seen a lot of undervolting tutorials but yours seems to be by far the easiest
managed to make my 1070 quicksilver go from 82ºc to 76ºc, 875 mV, 1840mhz, maybe i could go lower but didnt try
Thanks a lot Nick! My name's Nick too.
This helped a lot, I was having randomly black screens issues a lot while gaming on my sapphire Nitro rx 580 8gb for a month. This fixed my issue. Now I can play resident evil 4 remake for hours and haven't got any black screen. Lowering the mili volts worked.
anyone know what version of afterburner they started implementing the two line voltage curve editor ? i don't like it , would like to go back to the latest version with the single line curve editor
I can literally keep a 100MHz overclock, save 50-100W, and still keep memory overclocked by 800MHz on my 3060 Ti Strix OC. For me, didn't matter how low I went on Voltage, I seemed to be able to keep my memory clock as high as was stable with stock Voltage. Perhaps the memory Voltage control is totally separate. I haven't done tons of stress testing yet other than Kombuster though.
Thanks for this.... I was losing sleep over an issue with my laptop throttling at lower Temps with an external monitor attached.
I had spent hours pouring through old posts on stuttering that were no help. I finally noticed what was going on but I had no Idea how to undervolt.
You made it easy and your voice is very calming haha thanks a bunch man.
i just need the shift+enter, thanks so much!
Worked for me!
I know this is an old video but thank you for the concise and simple explanation of how to undervolt an Nvidia GPU. I just managed to get my 3070 temps down from 85 degrees celcius to 74 with a simply by reducing the voltage from 1050 to 975. And surprisingly the clockspeed improved as well! From 1875 to 1920. Makes me wonder how they determined the voltage and clock speeds to begin with on this Gigabyte card.
Thank you saved my life as Gamer. Now i can peacefully gaming without worry about temperature anymore
I tried maxing out all my settings in a game to get to the point of "throttling" but there's no cap on the graphs, the graphs are in the shapes of waves/cliffs, do i need to do more before trying this?
Hi, a quick question: you can press 1-5 for the profiles on the keypad... is there a shortcut for "apply" as well? i want to put these on a macro keypad. Thanks.
Great video. Haven't done too much testing, but initial results on a 3060Ti Founders Edition are:
STOCK - 0.95V, 198W, 78C, Unigine score 6712 (performed cold)
Undervolt - 0.875V, 165W, 75c, Unigine score 6609 (-1.5%)
I lost 1.5% performance (negligible) for a -16.6% decrease in wattage.
At the new rate of £0.52p/kWh, saving 33W of energy X 4 hours a day X 365 days per year = £25/yearly savings.
Plus, hopefully a marginally cooler and quieter and longer lasting card. Happy days.
Thanks, man!
I also prefer using MSI afterburner, a neat trick I find is to spend a bit of time after installation in opening up the monitoring graph window, removing the relatively useless graph trails ( FB, BUS, VID & Memory usage etc) leaving just the essential ones (which I feel to be GPU temp, usage, power & fan speed maybe including the same for the CPU graphs) and then the neat part.... right click on the "GPU usage" graph and select "attach" from the context menu, then left click on the "GPU Temp" graph... this overlays the 2 graphs, then right click on "Fan speed" > "attach" > left click on the "GPU usage / temp" graph, that overlays the "fan speed" graph on top of the other two. You can then set diffeent colours for each overlaid graph, say red for "temp", green for "usage" and blue for "fan speed".
Using that general pricinple you can configure the graphs any way you like, and it makes the monitoring of the various speeds, levels and temps SO much more easy to follow... hope this helps.
That's great! Thank you very much for the info!
Super thanks! 800mv @ 1750mhz is stable for my Asus Aero ITX 3060! With just 1 fan on this crazy small GPU, I am happy! Running Cyberpunk at 4K, ultra settings, DLSS max performance and I am getting 50-65 FPS. You heard that right 4K Ultra! Running at 60-65 degrees Celsius and pulling only 100W!!!! What more could I ask for? Oh, this is on my 4 YEAR OLD CPU i5-8400...…. I am satisfied, super satisfied!!!!! THANK YOU! Subscribed!
thanks! very usefull!
hey man,thanks. you just gave me 10 FPS GOOD GUIDE
Honestly I find it to be very confusing. If Y axis represents frequency and X axis is voltage, I would think that ,by flattening the line how you did, you're just capping frequencies to ~1950mh with no change to voltage whatsoever.
To cap voltage you would think it's necessary to move each point (after a certain voltage) along X axis to the same spot. I may be wrong I don't know how it works but I'm only referring to a logic point of view.
hi, I am unable to edit the voltage curve what could I be doing wrong.
do you think its good for the longevity of the card to keep the fan spiniing even when temps are in the low 30 degrees ?
I've tried this following 3-4 different tutorials now, using MSI afterburner and FurMark to stress test the GPU and NOTHING I change gets the temperature to go below 80 degrees. Followed your instructions to the letter. No change in temp and the fans are SO loud non stop.
Saw a bunch of videos about undervolting, this is the first one that actually helped me properly understand what to do and how to get results. Dropped my 3080 TI from .85v to .75v while keeping mostly the same boost clocks, thing now pulls ~50 less watts and gives me a lot more peace of mind with my SFF build. Much appreciated.
Ты зачем так свою видеокарту задушил?
@@bugogatorbugaga 🤡🤡🤡
This fixed my shutting down problem while playing games.
bad cooling
I have only One question:
In msi afterburner you can set gpu power limit from 100% to 95 or 90 and that limit your power of gpu, before i was on 200 wat after on 167 and that help me with temperature, and dont eat too much my fps. Sow why i need to set al this option when i can just set power limit??
You dont need to do all this stuff just set power limit on 95 % . Or i miss somthing??
Wow !
I have a RTX4080 (MSI Suprim X) and went from :
2910Mhz
1.075mV
320W Powerdraw
~ 73C at max Load with Furmark
to:
3000Mhz
1.020mV
240W Powerdraw
~51C at max Load with Furmark
I also increased Memory Clock by 1000 Mhz and can see a 8-10% performance increase while reducing power draw and temps.
Thanks a lot for this easy guide !!!
My rtx 3060 laptop temp went down from 76 celcius to 70 as well the noise lv. The clock speeds also increases. Thanks for the guide
