Description
ncix.com We reach 1GHz. Yes. 1GHz on the core!
This video presents an overclocking run of the MSI GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II graphics card. The host accelerates the GPU beyond stock speeds and focuses on achieving a stable, real-world gaming performance rather than a synthetic benchmark. He notes that the GPU reaches a milestone core frequency, ultimately hitting 1 GHz on the core while keeping temperatures under about 62 degrees Celsius, with room temperatures around 26 degrees. The fan runs at roughly 58 percent, a level described as respectable and relatively quiet compared to previous demonstrations. The session emphasizes practical outcomes: roughly a 10 percent or greater improvement in frame rates compared to stock speeds, though the test is a custom run rather than a canned benchmark, so results can vary with more iterations. The video also touches on voltage usage, acknowledging that higher voltages were applied during tuning but suggesting that lower voltages might still achieve similar temperatures with careful dialing in. Overall, the presenter frames the overclock as a successful demonstration of pushing the GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II to achieve notable performance gains without overheating, concluding with appreciation for viewers checking out the overclocking effort.
