Undervolt your RTX 4070 Ti Super for more FPS and Lower Temperature! - Tutorial

Undervolting really seems to be the best option in terms of GPU optimization for the RTX 4000 series. Be it a 4090, 4080, 4070 Ti or even a 4060 Ti, I’d still recommend doing it. If you do it properly, you’re gonna lose virtually 0 performance or even get an increase, while dramatically reducing heat and power consumption.
Today we are featuring the newly release RTX 4070 Ti Super 16GB in the Zotac Trinity White model, but the tutorial will work for any RTX 4070 Ti Super, no matter the brand.

Great video! Very informative. I managed to make my 4070 Ti (non Super) to function at 975mV/2790MHz. The second profile is 920mV/2595MHz. The third one is 1050mV/2880MHz. Stock power draw was ~260W, at 920mV it consumes ~170W, at 975mV - ~200W and at 1050mV - ~230W. This is at native 4K. At lower resolutions (or with DLSS) power draw is lower. Maximum OC (without voltage curve tuning) let my card run at 3000MHz. And it consumes ~270W. For me 1000 mV or 1025mV do not offer any noticeable improvement over 975mV in terms of performance. VRAM in my case is stable at +1700MHz, which is great, since Ti is seriously constained by memory bandwidth, unlike Super version. +1700MHz means it was increased from 504GB/s to 585GB/s. At 4K memory OC alone brings 8% more frames! At 1440p it is 6%, which is still a decent improvement. So at 975mV/2790MHz/+1700MHz my card runs 6-8% faster than stock and remains cooler (-5-6 C°) and much quieter. Manual voltage tuning is a must IMO. Really helps to optimize any GPU performance/noise/temps ratio. Ada GPUs are very efficient and they undervolt really well.

Hey man again thank you, this worked perfectly. I am wondering thou, if I don't want performance lost but only watts would 925 be better and if so, how high should I push it?

[@ImWateringPSUs]

I’m really happy it was helpful, thanks a lot for taking the time to leave some feedback :) Consider subscribing if you wanna support the channel & for more tutorials! If you want just watts you wanna get your Voltage as low as possible. You can try 900 or 875 :)

[@blackbern6]

man you saved my life, 555.85 update fu... up my power management so my FPS on PCVR games dropped like 50%, after i undervolted my 4070ti super, i gained about 20% FPS from time it was working well , well done mate, thank you

[@ashryver3605]

Best test for gpu stability on oc in my experience : Ray Trace stability is different to non RT stability. But RT stability ensures stability in every game. Thus, test your gpu OC's in Cyberpunk 2077. Youll find a low undervolt with high clock will likely not be stable at all in RT based games, and it doesnt take any time at all to crash and find stability problems. Originally i used Dx11 (no lumen) Fortnite, because the instruction sets there were quite demanding. 3dMark Time Spy would pass (a great starter for dialing in your oc and stabilizing memory clock) but Fortnite would require another step up of mV to work. Then for RT/Lumen stability it needed a lot more voltage, from .993 to 1.018, and a step down on clock speed from 1995 to 1980 (2070S).

[@sandronejm]

Hi. I play fortnite too. I use Lumen (no ray tracing). Its already excellent. RT competitive games might be for 5000 line XD

[@adis.g6569]

Agreed. On heaven is okay, on cp crashed everytime

[@hyyenaA]

what preset do you recommend the most? 1. or 2. one?

[@thanmg9703]

I can get my 4070ti non super at 975mV with around gpu memory 2750mhz and memory clock 1500 mhz is there anymore room to improve or this is good enough? I cant get mine to 2800mhz gpu memory without crash at testing with 975mV

[@MFA2000]

I have experiemced that my old pc blue screened when i set the overclock too high (1050 + i5 7400) if i set it too high on an asus 4070 Ti Super OC tuf will if also bluescreen or will it just be unstable also would if break if you just set it to the highest overclock but only with 1000Mv

[@massimosanson]

Grazie. :-)

[@ImWateringPSUs]

[@martinturykippervik3894]

Hi @ImWateringPSUs Will following your video yield better results than just using the OC scanner tool in Afterburner? Anyone else knowledgeable are welcome to comment as well! Just wondering as I haven't overclocked anything in over 10 years besides using the OC tool for my now swapped out old 2070.

[@jrc9648]

I'm waiting for a 5800x3d to arrive to pair it with a 1080ti, not the greatest match up, but that is what I have to work with atm. Looking to bringing undervolting to the machine to keep he efficient and cool. These videos are helpful, my regards.

[@erdruido]

waste of cpu power with that gpu 💀

[@ImWateringPSUs]

You'll have a bit of bottleneck but undervolting will help, also in competitive games like Apex Legends, Warzone, Fortnite etc that's actually gonna be a VERY good combo because remember: the 1080 Ti is still faster than a RTX 4060, if tweaked properly. It can even catch a RTX 4060 Ti. You can get 300fps on Apex :))

[@niklaymks]

250 -> 160 watts. Ffs so good

[@hnuzbu]

Hi, thanks for guide, but i have a problem, that when i set it at 900mV, it shows in Thunder master that its 925mV, so where is problem ? Can you help ? Thanks

[@ImWateringPSUs]

It’s just a visual error, no worries!

[@DrLogic_]

Haven is a terrible testbenchmark for this gpu and any raytracing capable gpu. You need to test the curve in a game that supports raytracing so it doesn’t crash in those game either.

[@jqn88]

My memory only goes till 2000 and it's max out, how do I fix that?

[@dawidbartoszek4608]

Hello, I have a problem, every time i set the curve to 900mV 2550 MHz and hit apply, my card is working on 2550 but Voltage is bigger ( 925 ) Voltage stay higher then set on flat curve. 985mV 2760MHz works fine

[@zluizranyel]

Mine is the same, only stable at 985 mV@2760 +1700 MHz

[@diegocervantes4977]

My 4070 ti super uses +150 core clock and 2,000 mhz memory clock. I dont think it is that hard to cranck up the memory clock

[@sandronejm]

Hi. When I should be concerned to upgrade my 4070 Ti Super? I play at 4k using dlss

[@emuletmoi]

Quand tu en ressentiras le besoin. Ça diffère selon les personnes, certaines ne supporteront pas d'avoir à faire trop de concessions sur les options graphiques ou les FPS et changerons après seulement 1 an et d'autres la conserverons 3-4 ans quelques soit les concessions nécessaires. En 4k, d'ici 1 voir 2 ans max tu vas commencer à sérieusement ressentir le manque de VRAM, même 16Go devrait commencer a être limite dans plus d'une situation

[@sandronejm]

@@emuletmoi merci. I didn't translate but I understand what you said. 2 years for 4K and 4 years for lower resolution

[@fuzzylumpkins6034]

When paying £400 more for a card than it's value for performance, you think Nvidia would have put the effort to do this for you. It is like buying a Bugati with a toyota engine and throwing the keys in a lake and saying if you can find them it will run but that's on you. It looks like a hyper car*, runs like a Toyota 2 litre and if you want to actually drive it, you have to hotwire it first ☠

[@siruspan]

Well, not really. Cards have the stock values for a reason. The reason is compatibility and stable operation and each and every card on every hardware configuration in each part of the world. They need to work for example on poor quality PSU, budget mainboards and high humidity enviroments and so on.

[@ImWateringPSUs]

I can definitely see the complaint, to be honest. It is as Sir said in terms of compatibility and stability, however it is also true that they choose to lose some efficiency for an extra 1-2% fps on synthetics, to get further ahead from AMD in the reviews. I think they could tweak the cards a bit better out of the box, genuinely. But manual tweaking will always win!

[@fuzzylumpkins6034]

@@siruspan deliberately gimping a card even 1 % to excel in a false benchmark (synthetic) to appear better than a superior card is pretty low. I am a tech nerd and build/rebuild /tweek and retweek for fun and still take issue with this practice. But then someone making a guide to unlock that 1% and acting like it was additional power to be had and not restricted on purpose... And so on. I will just leave this here, shit practice to oversell an under performing gpu for its price to the kids that have no idea the values given are not real time in the games they actually play. It is marketing. Good on them for travelling the suckers road and cashing in. Had they stayed on the path they were with 10 series, we would have better GPUs at competitive pricing that were labelled correctly. I.e. the 4060 acts like a 4050, the 4070 should have been the 4060 and so on. Going up the best gpu in the 40 series is the 4070super ti for what it is, should have been the 4080 and topped at £500 not the insane £800 - 900 it is selling at currently.

Hello ....im using the same brand as yours which is Zotac 4070 Ti Super Trinity, but mine is black color. I try your method but my GPU can only run max @ 2160Mhz ...while your can actually run over 2750 Mhz. Is there something wrong ? please help. thanks

[@TerminalzPain]

Sounds like a power issue maybe? You using a native 12VHPWR cable or the adapter?

@@TerminalzPain im using the cable from the original packaging. PSU is 850 watt....should be no problem too. Confused 🤥

[@ImWateringPSUs]

2160Mhz is way too low, there is definitely an issue there. I think there is a good chance that the 12VHPWR cable is not connected properly as the other guy was saying. You need to connect the cable to three different strands of the PSU. Also are you running heaven benchmark while measuring?

[@joeyjoe9928]

@@ImWateringPSUs yap i follow your exact method .....sorry it's 2610 Mhz not 2160 Mhz.....is it because the max boost clock for the GPU is set to 2610 mhz ?

ah yes the method of needing to use safemode to fix your dumbass from having it apply when windows starts without verifying first that the card works fine other then that the video is fine just please take into consideration for any of these video's that people need to verify stability first before pressing the apply settings on boot option i mean there are alot of people that if they run into problems due to this dont know how to enter safemode to begin with

[@ImWateringPSUs]

It can't happen that windows doesn't start. Because this tutorial works only on the under-load portion of the curve. Then of course one has to validate it in game, but I do lots of testing before recommending something!

[@ProtoType4588]

@@ImWateringPSUs yes and i believe you when you say it works for you but there might be people out there that have differences in the card you clicked on the windows icon in msi afterburner this means the profile wil be loaded even if you dont run msi afterburner for people that know their way around pc's it is fine but for those that dont know much about pc's or just dont have the time for it could end up in a situation were they just entered the value and then they get a system lockup and it would happen every time they try to get back in keep in mind that user error is a high possibility and since they likely dont know how to get into safe mode the pc ends up in the repair store so it just is a better safe then sorry or atleast put a disclaimer that they have to verify stability before pressing the icon
