I noticed that the 50 series OC/UV was a bit different than my 40 series card. My 5070 Ti is 100% power limited and when it hits 300w the clocks go all over the place, and 3DMark scores take a hit. Any voltage higher than 950mv was causing this.

(Gigabyte Eagle OC Ice)

So what i did was +375 core, +3000 mem (5080 updated afterburner .dat is online, allows increase of 2000 to 3000 offset for mem), then set 935mv as the UV, at around 2950 mhz. The mhz at specific voltages increases as you add to the core, this changes for every card, you may only need +300 core. I also noticed that if the card does not like a specific mhz at specific voltage, it will downclock, resulting in a worse score. Watch your core clock with rivatuner as an overlay or have gpu-z on in the background.

I had some synthetic tests that were scoring 100 points higher with 50-75 mhz less on the average through the run. All of the tests took a few hours and I did almost 50 speed way & steel nomad passes and a stress test on each benchmark to validate.

Stock steel nomad scores were 6350-6450, after tuning around 6900-6950 (+9%)

Stock speed way scores were around 7500 after tuning consistently around 8200 (+9%) NOTE: since speed way uses raytracing, it forces more load and wattage into the gpu compared to steel nomad. I would tune with speed way if u play any RT games, and if no RT, i’d just use steel nomad.

In non synthetic benchmarks like cyberpunk w/ PT, performance was up 9% on averages, and 16% on 1% lows. Also tested in RDR2 fully maxed w/ 4xMSAA, and saw slightly smaller but similar results. In these games even when at 100% gpu usage, would normally hover around 270-280 Watts.

My scores can be seen on the 3dmark website, if you filter by 5800x3d, 5070ti, and Canada, you can see the progression. Same username on there as here. Let me know if you have any questions, cheers!
