Open which ever version of GPU-Z you are using.
That’s why FurMark is often used by overclockers and graphics cards fanatics to validate an overclocking, to test a new VGA cooler or to check the max power consumption of a video card.
It makes it possible to push the GPU to the max in order to test the stability of the graphics card (and the PSU too!) leading to maximum GPU and VRM temperatures. What is FurMark?įurMark is an OpenGL-based GPU stress test utility (also called GPU burn-in test). GPU Tweak allows you to optimize clock speeds, voltage and fan speeds on up to four graphics cards independently or simultaneously, you can also select between GPU Tweak’s Standard or Advanced modes depending on your level of experience.Ī good stress test to push your overclock stability is FurMark, while GPU-Z is a must and is included with the ASUS GPU Tweak however you can also download the latest version separately as an ROG Skinned GPU-Z. For CrossFireX setups also download the latest version of CAP. Downloads you will need:įirst of all download the latest version of ASUS GPU Tweak and AMD Catalyst drivers to get support for the latest models. While these cards fill the news and people's upgrade anticipations right now, you don't need PCI-Express 3.0 or even the latest series of graphics cards to overclock though - generally speaking any graphics card can be overclocked in some way. This guide explains the process of how to overclock your graphics card with GPU Tweak, and applies to Nvidia and AMD graphics cards alike. New PCI-Express 3 cards have hit the market and include the Nvidia GeForce GTX 600 series, such as the recent GTX 680, and AMD's Radeon HD 7000 Series, including ASUS designed cards such as the Radeon HD 7970 DirectCU II, 7950 DirectCU II and 7870 DirectCU II as well as their TOP pre-overclocked variants. 2012 is an exciting time to need a graphic card upgrade.
