Gainward GTX 760 Phantom 2GB Graphics Card Review

Overclocking
Overclocking was relatively unfruitful as we only managed to add an extra 55MHz to the GPU and 65MHz (260MHz effective) to the memory. In total this is about 5% extra on the factory GPU speed and 4% extra on the factory memory speed. Clearly we haven’t been winners in the silicon lottery with this particular graphics card but considering it already had a significant overclock out of the box, 5% extra is still decent enough by most people’s standards. From Nvidia reference speeds our total overclock was 15% higher on the GPU and 7.7% higher on the memory.
In terms of actual performance gain the performance in 3DMark 11 rose from P8762 to P9087 which is about a 4% gain from a 5% overclock.
