Let us go back to the image of afterburner. What the different values in afterburner means The best way to learn is to try it out yourself. I recommend experimenting a little and see what happens with different settings and curves. However, one thing I recommend is setting it to run at 100% when hitting 85c, just so you got a failsafe in case something goes wrong. I cannot make it for you, so start experimenting. That graph can be adjusted (make sure to enable user defined software automatic fan control) to set your fan curve. You should get this (font color may vary) We find those by clicking on the button with the cog, and then navigating to the “fan” tab. I will get back to what the things do later, but for now, we want to find the settings. This is the “main” page of MSI afterburner using the cyborg skin (default in v4.3 and onwards as far as I know). That is what custom fan curves is all about. Overclocking works just fine on the stock fan curves, but oftentimes people want to tweak things to their preference. Why would you want to do this? Well, could be you prefer to let your GPU run a little hotter and quieter, or you simply want a different fan profile. Stress test utility (like fire strike or unigine heaven) Overclocking software (MSI afterburner is the most popular, but you can use others) Also, NEVER overclock a laptop, even if it is a “gaming” laptop.Ī PSU that’s not trash tier (and if the PSU is trash tier it shouldn’t even be in a gaming rig) Hence why this shit is so long, to make you understand. Overclocking is something you need to UNDERSTAND on at least a basic level before you can do it. Since it is a simple guide meant for introduction, I will NOT talk about overvolting.īefore I start, I want to make one thing clear. I will touch topics like what you need to OC, how to set a custom fan curve, what the different values mean, how to overclock, and how to stress test your overclock to ensure it is stable. Throughout the guide I will stick to afterburner (because that is the one I prefer, and it is one of the more well-known ones), but other programs work just fine (the layout and some steps may be different). Done right it is safe, easy, and is “free” performance, so I will provide a simple introduction. It does not have to be like that, especially not with GPU overclocking. Overclocking sounds scary as hell to many, especially when they learn about it causing instabilities or crashes if taken too far.
