Overclocking:

Overclocking via MSI Afterburner :

Direction the latest version of MSI Afterburner software, version 4.6.4 Beta 3. This is the overclocking software designed by MSI but will be compatible with other GPU brands. The software is really well designed but you will have to go through the advanced mode in order to have access to all the settings possibilities.

To test our overclocking, we are going to concentrate first on the Time Spy benchmark. Let’s go! We choose a maximum fan speed, we set the power limit to the maximum, i.e. to 107% and off we go! At first, we only push the GPU frequency in 50 MHz steps until the benchmark is not running anymore. Once we have a stable GPU frequency, we move on to increasing the memory frequency.

By default, at stock frequencies , our MSI RTX 4070 Ti Gaming X Trio gets an overall score of 22071 points and 22922 points for the GPU score. The boost frequency reaches a maximum of 2805 MHz with the GPU temperature rising to 51 °C.

In the end, I was able to push the Boost frequency to 3120 MHz and the memory to 1450 MHz. This allows me to obtain excellent scores and thus to gain more points. The limit is around 3150 MHz, if the card goes higher, it is automatically a crash of the benchmark . The overall score is now 22922 points and the GPU score is 24569 (+7.1%).

Of course, now that you have the maximum frequencies, you’ll have to test with the fans in AUTO and why not, redo a new ventilation curve in order to hold these new frequencies or close to them. Now, the overclocking performance will depend on your card.
