[Tweak League] Overclock an RTX 4060 « Easy mode »

#1 Overclocking mode : Advanced (1h30)

Overclocking max: it’s up to you (1h30)

Now that we’ve validated the intermediate profile, we can push the card to its limits. This means a loss of stability, so don’t use it for your gaming sessions if you don’t know what you’re doing. That said, you’ll be able to see if your card is up to the task, and that’s always good for the ego.

This time, let’s start with our previous profile.

We start by playing with the memory clock. Increase it by 50Mhz increments. And check for crashes using 3DMark Time Spy, for example. If a crash occurs, return to the previous frequency and increase by 20Mhz.

Onceyou’ve reached the maximum stable memory frequency, lower it by 50Mhz and play with the core clock/voltagecurve .

In CURVE EDITOR, we’ll now play with the 1100 mV point. Gradually raise the whole curve. I recommend 20mV by 20mV.

And here too, we’re aiming to reach the crash point in our benchmarks and goback 1 or 2 steps for stability.

Our curve after optimization

Our ASUS RTX 4060 Dual OC enabled us to go to 210 Mhz Core Clock (i.e. 3075 Mhz from 1100 mV) and 1300Mhz Memory Clock. We remind you that each GPU is different and that no two will have the same results.

Results:

Performance gains:
10.5% on the 3D Mark Time Spy benchmark.
15.8% on the 3D Mark Solar Bay benchmark.
119.57 FPS or 10% on Cyberpunk 2077.

Stock Easy Intermediate Max
TimeSpy Score 11’727 12’184 12’786 12’954
3.90% 9.03% 10.46%
Solar Bay Score 50’278 52’437 54’407 58’232
4.29% 8.21% 15.82%
Cyberpunk 2077 FPS 108.69 111.25 116.3 119.57
2.36% 7.00% 10.01%

In 2 hours, I think a 10% performance gain in gaming on an RTX 4060 is simply brilliant. Who says you can’t have fun with an entry-level GPU?

Thank you ASUS for providing the RTX 4060 Dual OC for the Tweak League.
