MSI GTX460 HAWK Overclocking results, comparison between speeds, and final thoughts

Here I compare the overclocking performace of my card with what MSI was promissing in their marketing material. I also compare against the reference speeds

DUDE update you driver! i was able to 1000mhz easily!!!

[BenTechComputers]

@MeDmAnQcA I am running the latest beta drivers from nvidia.

Do you mean a newer version of the afterburner utility?

Also, don't forever, every card is different. A few other people have managed to get up to 1000Mhz, if you did with only +100mV then you have a very very excellent card!

[lejonicom]

Did you not say thay clamed you have 200mV to play with? In that case from what I can see on your video its correct as it seams you can down volt it -100mV also. -100 to +100 is 200mV

[BenTechComputers]

@lejonicom Sorry, should have made that more clear.

I mean 200 in either direction, so -200 to +200

I got mine to 850core 1700shader/ 2010 memory, could go somewhat higher but i`m keeping it safe lol... is it worth it messing with core voltage?

Wouldn`t wanna fuck my shit up over like 1% performance boost..

@gundam0051 yep is tested it and it was stabel but once i got to 930 i needed to aply 100mV to run stable :p now finding how to get 200mV in it cuz i wanna overclock it even more

[gundam0051]

@ollit100 Really. Thats pretty amazing. Every chip is different that's why he needs more volts. It all luck of the draw. They increase the standard of each gpu for cards like these. You just got a very good one. Although have you gamed constantly and furmark tested stable?

[ollit100]

I get like 920mhz with only +50mv why are u using +100mv with only 900mhz??

[tiu007]

Why can't edit my core voltage? i can't adjust it.

@HeLeX63 video or it didnt happen

[kempsdaman]

@Stebbzi97 if u havent figured it out by now you go into settings and unlock core voltage management

[Stebbzi97]

why can't i change my core voltage??

[Lukq95]

@MeDmAnQcA burn your graph card with 1 GHz in stress :)

@BenTechComputers I recently purchased the same card and i got 14k score for GPU at default clocks but i have no knowledge of the voltage etc on the card hence i am scared to overclock it so any help on that will be appreciated. For reference my idle temp is 33 C and under full load around 60C.
