Overclocking
For our overclocking test we used the delivered software ASUS Smartdoctor. This tool allows you to adjust the core voltage and clock frequencies as well as the memory clock. The standard voltage regarding the GPU is 1.1 Volt. Using Smartdoctor you can rise the value all the way up to 1.5 Volt. Therefore we found the optimal voltage at
1.19 Volt. At this point it was possible for us to drive the GPU at 1'001 MHz and the memory at
6'016 MHz.
