Overclocking:
Overclocking via MSI Afterburner :
Direction the latest version of the MSI Afterburner software from MSI, version 4.6.4 Beta 3. This is the overclocking software designed by MSI but which 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 focus first on the Time Spy Extreme benchmark. Let’s go! We choose a maximum fan speed, we set the power limit to the maximum, i.e. 110% and we’re off! At first, we only push the GPU frequency until the bench 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 4090 Suprim Liquid X gets an overall score of 16984 points and 19958 points for the GPU score. The boost frequency reaches a maximum of 2835 MHz with the GPU temperature rising to 62.4 °C.
In the end, I was able to push the Boost frequency to 3075 MHz and the memory to 1400 MHz. This allows me to obtain excellent scores and thus to gain more points. The limit is around 3075/3100 MHz, if the card goes higher, the benchmark crashes.
In the next few days, we will try to bring a little more coldness to our card to see if we manage to exceed the 3100 MHz mark in boost frequency.
3DMark Hall Of Fame :
The official 3DMarkHall Of Fame page lists the best scores in the world in the different 3DMark benchmarks and also classified according to the number of GPUs. We have therefore introduced our current best scores to see where we stand in the world ranking!
The captures were made this morning and of course the ranking will evolve in the coming hours as some cards are cooled with liquid nitrogen just appeared. We will encode this afternoon our score on Hwbot and will benchmark again very soon this MSI RTX 4090 Suprim Liquid X under liquid nitrogen.
