After overclocking GPU getting worse benchmark results?
I overclocked my GPU AMD Radeon HD6670 2GB DDR3 - GPU 800 MHZ and Memory Clock - 800 MHZ.
I was overclocking with the MSI Afterburner. I can't change the voltage because it's not supported by the graphic card. I went to stress test it first at default clocks. After 1 hour the temp was 50°C (when idle 30°C) and I did the benchmark using MSI Kombustor and I got 777 points.
Then I went to overclock by 5 MHZ and did the stress test for 10 min. It seemed stable so went another 5 MHZ... I was increasing by 5 until I reached 860 MHZ and I got a system crash and I was like: what is a messed up something? But rebooted successfully and I decreased the GPU clock to the least highest stable clock (855 MHZ). I did the stress test for 30 min and no system crash so I decided it's stable.
But when I did the benchmark test I got 768 points .
And the question is why do I get lower results when overclocked? I don't think it's unstable.
Don't ask me about the memory clock because as soon as I move it to 805 MHZ I get a crash.
The temperature when at 855 MHZ was not going over 60°C when stress testing.
Thanks for reading.
