+235 MHz core clock and +780 MHz memory clock with my HP GTX 1050 without increasing voltages. Many thanks for the guide!

[@OosinBBX_0_0]

bro will it not over heat the laptop?? like can it handle when i run applications like streaming softwares and all ? btw im running a lenovo ideapad l340 8gb ddr4 1tb hdd 256 gb ssd and a Gtx1050 ....... jus want to clarify that it wont overheat or melt or cause any problem lik that?

[@iolar_si]

@@OosinBBX_0_0 I play The Witcher 3 right now, had a couple of crashes and had to lower frequencies (+200 MHz core and +700 memory). Since I did it, everything is running pretty ok. But I have a PC, not a laptop. Laptops are usually harder to cool down, so I'd probably start with lower frequencies (like +150 core and +550 memory) and test it while monitoring temperatures (with gpu-z or something like that).

[@XLSTech]

Excellent, what kind of overclocks did you manage to get?

[@XLSTech]

These cards can be mined with as well. Nowadays they mine mostly zhash, but I built a 6 GPU mining rig out of them years ago and it was a great experience.

[@airshark2764]

be aware that overclocking have drawbacks. the higher you go the more stuttery it gets, doing so with the core i do not recommended but for memory i think +200 or lower could help in some games for this card

[@Kilgore2307]

I overclocked my asus rog strix gtx 1050 2gb with 200+ core clock and 385+ memory and it runs at 59 degree celsius with 60% fan speed.

[@gdmya]

My GT 1030 SDDR4 2GB has been running smoothly with me for 2 years now, you can overclock it of course since yours is more powerful than what I use. Your GPU should have a failsafe mechanism before the stress is too much if you overclocked it a bit too much

Hey , does your gtx 1050 support increasing power limit beyond 100% ??

[@derek8564]

yes, its an option to enable in the settings for MSI afterburner, he shows it in there

[@squidscrew1339]

@@derek8564 but all 1050 model doesn't have that feature in after burner by default.

[@kevinrezawan4853]

because it has no power pin hence it is disabled by default, as is drawing 75W from the pci slot, more power might damage the lane

[@squidscrew1339]

@@kevinrezawan4853 bt mine max is 65watts only . It's different for different vendor & firmware . Some have 75 limit some have 65 . Also even though mine is 65 watt it doesn't support increase in power draw through after burner . But still some GTX 1050 support that(specific to particular firmware of some vendors )

[@squidscrew1339]

@@kevinrezawan4853 actually I don't think so , i mean if motherboard manufacturers increase power draw limit for pcie to 100watts it won't burn lanes . Because same motherboard can also support higher watts cpu like i9 12900k which can draw more than 150 watts. So there will be no issue if they increase pcie power draw limit to 100 Watts.

if u close msi afterburner, that configuration still on? or even launch at windows start?

GeForce® GTX 1050 Windforce OC 2G .. brother tell me how to set up this card?

[@nelju0621]

Just do what he said in the video. Use any gpu benchmarking tool. Mine was Valley/Heaven/Superposition. I'd rather Heaven then try increase your core clock and memory clock by 100 without unlocking the voltage control and start the bench. If it's sucessfull, try increasing those clocks by 50 again without increasing the voltages then try to run bench again and so on. Find the right clocks with those two without increasing voltages first. The core clock usually the one who might get the instability errors here except the memory clock as you can see, I manage to get my CC to 185+ and my MC to 850+ without increasing the voltages.

[@thecris3997]

hello friend, what was the best overclocking? I don't speak English

[@isuck0666]

he didnt say it, he just listed what worked, doesnt mean it will work on yours. here: CORE MEMORY VOLTAGE +150 +265 +180 +500 1.10 +200 +285 +200 +690 1.20 +205 +200 +220 +300 +220 +440 1.15 +220 +500 1.10

[@watts4200]

GTX 1050 in hp gaming laptop but for some reason after clicking the voltage control setting like you said I’m still not able to adjust the voltage.?

[@XLSTech]

Interesting. If you have selected "Unlock Voltage Control", rebooted the machine, and it's still not allowing you to adjust voltage, you may try another program and see if that will allow it, such as Nvidia Inspector. Laptops by design are known to have much more limited flexibility when it comes to power usage and overclocking in general however. Good luck!

[@tylowX]

i rather stay with it clocked the way it is because when i did it my monitor glitched so badly

[@vaggelissiatras857]

really cool video 👍

[@rickyzoroza]

Hello, a question: The card must be with the OC on even when you are not playing a game (or something that requires such oc)? If I remember correctly, the nvidiainspector had something like levels of demand, where the OC is "only" applied when the usage is high. Is it the same with the Afterburner? Even with the Voltage?

[@hotdog7584]

The gpu and memory will still clock down for their idle states. The overclock only applies under load.

[@thuggerdude1154]

So u can make a gtx 1050 into a 1050ti by overclocking it 😅😂. I have noticed a slight performance boost by using old drivers and then OCing the card. I use a program called nvidia inspector for overclocking and memreduct to maintain a good fps in games even though I have 16gigs or ddr4 Ram. With every new drivers there are fixes but very very slight performance decrease 🤔

Thats a great point. Sometimes you can get higher overclocks by using older drivers.

How would you apply this to laptops with the 1050*

Overclocking laptops is certainly possible, however stricter heat and power issues can often make it significantly more difficult. If you are going to try, you may want to start off with smaller overclocks to start. 👍

[@bonderoff]

@@XLSTechthank you so much. It’s not allowing me to change the voltage for some reason so I went with the +220/+300 example. Seems to be better but I’ll have a better idea later today when I can dedicate some time to gaming
