Inno3D supply their own software for overclocking, but we achieved the same results by using MSI’s Afterburner, based on RivaTuner. It is more user friendly too.
There is plenty of overclocking headroom on the sample we received, hitting 1,141mhz on the core – a 14% overclock.
The manual overclock helped to increase the GPU score from 9,750 points to 11,030 points.
