How to Overclock & Undervolt RX 7800XT | ADRENALIN 2023 Easy Tutorial

hello guys ancient gameplays I'm Fabio Pisco and welcome to my channel for today we have the out overclock and undervault RX 7800 X you one of the most recently requested videos and I'm talking in this tone in this light tone because well it's kind of late here and people are sleeping and I don't actually want to wake them up that's not a thing that I usually like to do so let's keep it quiet or at least more quiet than usual and before the actual guide let's start with the common questions but before today this video sponsor is gvg Mo bringing you all the software deals you need like Windows 10 Windows 11 office t21 with a new windows 11 design and even Windows Server 2022 for all of these you can use my skg discount code for 25% off getting a Windows 10 serial key for only $16 then use the key on your Windows settings and you'll have an activated system so the first common question is can I do this on my Asus RX 7800 XT on my MSI uh ASRock on my Sapphire RX 7800 XT on my AMD RX 7800 XD yes the model does not matter as long as your card is an RX 7800 XT these settings apply the second common question is will this void my warranty no it won't void your warranty although that some Brands like AMD and some others um they say that be careful because if you overclock you'll Avid your warranty in some scenarios firstly it depends on the country and secondly they can't prove that you overclocked and with the software locks that we have today it is almost impossible to break your GPU uh by overclocking because once again we have software locks and the GPU won't go above that uh if you have some issues you can still send the card to to the warranty or to to the store there won't be any issues in 99.9% of cases just letting you know and the third and final common question is will this break my GPU or will this degrade my GPU and the and the obvious answer is no and no because like I told you before the the gpus nowadays have software locks unless you're modding the V bios so the graphic the the bios of your graphics card nothing will happen because as soon as the as you try some values that that may be harmful to the GPU the computer will crash the computer will reboot but the card won't be damaged at all the most it can help is that your GPU breaks because you have a time bomb instead of a power supply but if you have at least a decent power supply that can handle the the extra power draw maybe the extra Peak power draw because it's not always about the average or the the current power draw sometimes as soon as you overclock the the peak power draw can be higher and that's one of the reasons why some power supplies cannot handle but as soon as you don't have a time bomb once again and you have a decent power supply you'll have no issues whatsoever so no this process won't break your GPU and this process won't degrade your GPU as well now for the actual overclocking guide we're going to use the AMD adrenaline settings you can use other softwares like for example Ms After Burner but since we have the AMD software and we actually have the overclocking profiles we have overclocking profiles overclocking Tools in inside the the adrenaline software why not use it so what you have to do is go to your desktop right click on uh on the button of your mouse and you have the AMD software adrenaline Edition just open it and you'll first go with a home menu as you can see I'm recording now go to the performance tab that you have here on the top click on it then you have the metrix tuning and setting subtabs and you go to the tuning subtab now on the GPU we have the tuning control and the first thing that you want to do actually is go and and select manual tuning so we kind of have tuning presets and automatic overclocks but the automatic overclocks aren't near as good as what we can actually do with uh with a manual overclocking because as you can see you can select the undervolt GPU option overclock GPU option or over overclock vram option and by manual tuning we can do all of these three at the same time which is very very good it's the best option actually so once again manual tuning go there custom and all you have to do is enable all the sliders so let's start with the GPU tuning Advanced control then vram tuning then Advanced control then fan tuning Advanced control is not needed here at least for me and then power tuning enable also as for the power tuning you're seeing that the card is drawing 66 wats idle but it isn't actually idle we're recording and since we're recording we're using the GPU I'm recording using the the graphics card and that's why you see the total word power draw the usual power draw that I have with only one monitor is around let's say from 8 to 12 Watts so the first thing that I do when I'm overclocking and undervolting at the same time or even just overclocking is go to the power tuning which is one of the most important settings and push the power settings the power limits to the Max and once again this does not mean that the card will automatically consume more power it means that the card will consume more power if the card needs more power to deliver more FPS some lower end models might have the power limit at only 0% so you can't raise it which is bad for over overclocking and undervolting some other models have 5% others 10 others 15 others 25 it depends on the card maybe some really high-end models might have 50% like in some older gpus but not as common as as before but still raise the power limit to the maximum in order to ensure that the that the card can consume the power it needs to perform better and deliver more FPS after that well as for the fan tuning I usually leave the zero RPM option enabled so the fans will only start spinning let's say at over 40 50° it depends on the GPU actually so here the fans are spinning at over uh at 45° so I believe that uh the minimum temperature is 40° it will start Speed me after 40° in some models it's 50° in some others are is 55 in this case uh it is 45° and the fan is working because once again we're recording and we have 60 wats of power draw but usually uh I leave the the maximum fan tuning at around 55% I leave it at 79% here or at 80% because this is an AMD reference model but the higher tier model you have the lower you can go on this values because once again uh you'll have a way way better cooling solution so you won't need the fence to be spinning so fast as for the the GPU tuning well the GPU tuning goes a bit different from the 7700 XT the 7700 XD had kind of a software lock to 2600 MHz while this does not happen to the 7800 XT it kind of still has a software lock in most scenarios but not near as bad as the 7700 XT so it works fine so the minimum frequency we do not need to raise the minimum frequency in this scenario like we did with the 7700 XT so for the the 7800 XT the minimum frequency stays at the 500 usual and the maximum frequency raises from 2600 2670 or 2600 MHz to 3,000 it means that the GPU will run at 3,000 MHz on titles where it can actually achieve 3,000 MHz inside the power limit of the GPU in this case it's 290 Watts I believe so if the game usually consumes more power because depends on uh on how the game is actually structured for example the most recent Assassin's Creed games like Valhalla and Mirage they tend to consume a lot less power than other games so in those games since the game consumes less power the GPU clocks actually raise to compensate the fact that uh the GPU isn't being properly utilized so they compensate with higher frequency in order to achieve higher FPS that's how it works basically so in some games it might achieve only 2600 MHz in some games it might achieve 2700 in others 2800 it depends on the power roof or the power limit that we have also by the way it depends on the resolution so lower resolution since the GPU is not as utilized as before in lower resolutions the maximum frequency will be higher and in lower in higher resolutions the maximum frequency will be lower but still raising this doing this alone with a power draw to the with the power limit to the maximum will give you better performance already now as for the voltage this one is a tricky one because with the rdna 3 cards the the ren 7,000 series um they don't work like the previous cards they work by power States meaning for example that if you're running if your game is running at let's say 2600 MHz you'll have a base a base voltage for those 2600 MHz if you're running at 2500 MHz you'll have a base voltage for those 2500 MHz if you're running at 2800 MHz you're going to have a base voltage for those 2800 MHz so for example if you go here and select 1100 instead of 1150 so decreasing 50 m volts it doesn't mean that the GPU will run constantly at 1100 molts so like I told you before for the voltage slider is more like an offset the lower the voltage slider or the lower you go with a voltage slider the lower the the voltage will be because you'll be applying a negative offset to the base voltage for each frequency and that's basically how it works so the voltage slider having a lower voltage slider is good because it will decrease the voltage but it will not decrease the voltage uh equally in all states and it will it won't be this vol voltage that you are applying here in all states okay for example now since we're only recording we are decreasing to 10 80 molts and the voltage is 742 M volts because the GPU clock is low as for the values that I found the values are uh 1080 1080 is the minimum that I can go stable for every single game I can go for example as low as 1020 for example in some games or in some games even lower than that but in others it won't be completely stable and what I found to be be the most stable option for all games so no crashes whatsoever is 1080 molts 1080 molts is perfectly stable for all games applications and so on as soon as I go below that I'll start having crashes what I advise you here is starting for example with 1100 molts because 1100 molts is a safe is a safe place to start uh as almost all gpus will be able to decrease the voltage to this state at least to to use the offset to this State start with 1100 molts and start testing in your games if you play your game for let's say 20 minutes or the games you play for 20 minutes um and it is stable well then try to decrease a bit more to 1090 try again 20 minutes half an hour if it is stable try to decrease once again to 10 80 and so on in terms of games to test I do advise you to test for example Assassin's Creed mirrage or Assassin's Creed Valhalla or test for example Hogwarts Legacy from my experience these are are very good games to test if your overclocking settings work on these games like Assassin's Creed Mirage and so on they will work on almost every single game as for the vram well we have the memory timings we have the default and fast timings fast timings are usually better because the lower the timings the lower it takes the the less time it takes to make those same those same not calls out should we call the same Cycles so less time to make the Cycles equals more performance usual and so on in in terms of frequency what I found with the 7700 XT that you can see in this video passing right now in the screen is that it has a software lock it wouldn't overclock 2 MHz above the the base frequency if I was running the monitor at anything above 75 HZ which is which is not understandable at all but that's how it works if I run the monitor at 60 HZ it would run uh at 2500 no issues because the base frequency of that card is 2250 M 2250 megahertz sorry while the base frequency here is well around 24 25 mehz as we can see here I can go with my card up to 2600 usually from 12 to 14 M volts is the offset that you have to apply in order to have this round number basically this is it remember all cards are different your card might be able to go up to 28700 like the RX 7900 series or it might not even be able to achieve the 26 um the 2600 MHz I do advise you to start for example with 2500 mahz so 2514 for the for the offset apply changes bam 2500 2501 if it is stable try for example 15 or 10 molts more so 285 24 if it is stable 2534 and so on or you can try already let let's say 2564 to make the 2550 molts let's see yes 2550 M volts and then once again keep raising till you find the the maximum stable value for you in my case 28614 it is this is my scenario also the vram tuning won't change as you are overclocking the vram tuning won't change most likely because the vram tuning is running at maximum settings because we're recording and since we are we are recording actually um we have the vram settings to the maximum and that's why the total board power is also higher than it should once again you can tweak the settings but they won't raise like you see here unless you're having the high idle power issue so it will be fine most times it won't raise but that's basically it so as for the GPU Core Power tuning vrm tuning and so on and I don't really think that there's much more to say also you can try the the memory timings you can go for example uh to if you don't want to go to the 2600 you can go let's say only 2500 if you can achieve for example 2550 megahertz you can go for example to the 2500 you can kind of play safe with the 2500 MHz but at the same time try the fast timings instead of the default ones in some cases it the fast timings might actually deliver better performance than raising the frequency in my case once again default timings 264 mahz it is and in the scenario we can actually get only a bit more power draw let's say 20 30 Watts but in some scenarios we can get a huge performance difference in games like let's say Hogwarts Legacy and so on the performance difference from overclocking is actually pretty big and while guys that's all for this video thank you very much for watching as always if you have any kinds of any kind of doubts just go to the comment section and leave the thoughts in the comment section and as usual I will try to answer as fast as I can also the link to the to to these settings that you're seeing here to the profile settings and to the the power saving settings as well are in the description so you can go to the description and download these same settings that you that you see here all you have to do after downloading the settings is go here to import file select the location of of the file for example in my case I tend to to to save them on the C AMD folder I have all here and then all you have to do is select one and press open and the settings will automatically apply but once again remember these settings might not be might not be 100% stable for you and they they might crash your computer but don't worry it won't break your computer at all thank you very much for watching and see you in the next video guys and don't forget any kind of doubts comment section as it also helps the algorithm thank you very much and and see you in the next video cheers a spe [Applause] all
