For our overclocking tests today we used MSI Afterburner – based on Rivatuner.
We managed to push the core clock speed from 1,100mhz to 1,203mhz – translating into a 9.4% overclock. The memory could be overclocked to 1,708mhz before we noticed some very minor artifacting.

Corsair delays Warthog case due to ‘packaging issue’, Leo weighs in
Corsair's Warthog case was one of our highlights from Computex 2026, with the distinctive military-inspired design attracting plenty of attention. Our review sample arrived a few weeks later and Leo got to work on his review, with launch slated for early August. However, we later got the news that the Warthog has been delayed, and a new launch date has yet to be confirmed. Here's what Leo has to say...
Thats the nicest looking GPU I have ever seen.
Good board, but I think Sapphire nailed it with the Toxic Edition – looks a better built card too.
Still this is cheaper, so horses for courses.
I’m with Ben on this one, its one of the most understated, but visually stunning cards I’ve seen in a long time!
Performance is great, but price is even better, I’d love one in my system 😉
Have you checked with xfx about clock times because scan still is listing black edition with this clock speed 1080-6200 MHz, so this is the same card you have reviewed with lower clock speed?
