IDontEB Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Yeah you can overclock it yourself. This just means that it came slightly overclocked from the factory already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it silly to buy one which is overclocked from the factory? or does it make normal overclocking easier later on if it's already done to a extent?

Typically people believe the ones that are already overclocked are the better binned cards and the one's that did not overclock as well are sold at lower frequencies. They are all roughly the same though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I have 5 overclocked right now. Having some issues overclocking core clock but I think it's due to overheating. I just bumped the memory clock up 500MHz and have been getting the best consistent results without crashing for mining. Might push to 700.

Plax Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Yes it can, mine comes already factory overclocked, but I also overclocked it myself. Got it super cheap almost 4 months ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
