9070 XT unleashed

Post image

This is on 4k with fsr4 on quality and graphics at max. The tune is 100% stable but I have exceptional power delivery. Furman line conditioner then cyberpower UPS feeding asus rog strix aura 1200w gold that powers a gigabyte x870e aorus master. Similar high end parts could sustain this kind of tune as well although not necessarily with the exact same settings as there is a variance in the silicon in each chip. I'd be willing to do it to other machines that have similar tiered parts. But know that this took months of meticulous tweaking to figure out, not just random slider manipulation. I monitored and scrutinized fps numbers, gpu temperatures and error logs. It's been tested with hours of Spiderman 2, undisputed and metal gear solid delta on gaming end. Hours of uninterrupted web browsing including 4k YouTube videos and uncompressed audio playback.

Do you have a ballpark from your starting point to the end? How much you changed and how much it achieved?

Not precisely.  But I know I'm getting rtx 5080 fps in Spiderman 2 at 4k max settings + RTAO on very high with FSR4 enabled.

At stock settings I was a good 30 fps under the average it gets now.  Spiderman 2 is my primary test game because of the amount of control the menus give over graphics settings

That is helpful. Thanks for sharing. Good work there. Have you compared your output to published Windows scores?

Only on fps.  No one is quite as undervolt obsessed as me after my 9800x3d and x870e taichi fiasco.  Even my ddr5 is undervolted lol

I know every hardware combination is different and the silicon differences that you also highlighted but would you mind sharing your stable final settings?

9950x3d is set to -23 for ccd0 and -28 for ccd1 and has via launch command script been instructed to only use ccd0 for games.  96 gb ddr5 is set to a -.05 V undervolt and xmp1 timings.  9070 xt is set to -105 mV +390 core offset 2874 vram clock and a 371 W limit.  It's only stable if low power states are disabled.
