Title: Lowering core clock raises voltage and temps ?
Post by: opies32765 on August 10, 2017, 11:49:16 AM
Hi Guys

I don't understand why lowering the core clock raises the temps and the voltage on my GTX 1070's on afterburner.

Wouldn't it be the opposite ?

It should be the opposite normally. But to adjust your temperatures move the slider down to the desired temperature and I think this should be an easy fix to this problem.

Thats what i thought but i have measured the wattage with a meter and it goes up when i lower the clocks

Not in every scenario. Lowering the clockspeed can also result in a situation where you lowered it enough that one ore more core can be turned off and some cores get into a higher frequency. It is a balanced system.
