Evga precision x oc led guide2/24/2023 ![]() REF or Reference Edition is the most basic version of all the models in the series. The Tier 2 GPUs might be in Tier 2 because it didn’t pass some particularly harsh situations under certain overclocked speed but in real world environment where there are fewer stress factors, some genius could potentially achieve a higher clock frequency using the same GPU.ġ – The Reference Edition (REF) and Founder’s Edition Getting a special edition GPU increases your chance of overclocking said GPU to a new record clock speed, but it does not 100% guarantee it will be possible at all. And then out of nowhere you have a random GTX 1070 Superclocked that hits 1740MHz, a Tier 2 GPU! Wait…isn’t my mighty FTW edition supposed to clock higher?! What kind of sorcery is that!Īt the end of the day it’s like playing a lottery, thus you may come across the term “silicon lottery” when people discuss about these video cards and their ability to go above and beyond. In fact, one could go up to 1819MHz in clock speed while the other can’t even go above 1680MHz. ![]() What do I mean? Assuming you are buying two GTX 1070 FTW which is strongly considered as having a Tier 1 GPUs equipped, one of them might not be as good as an overclocker as the other. ![]() Yes they might be able to get clocked a little higher, but they are not the best or the unicorn rainbow part of the silicon waffle. Now as you’ve just read about product binning, you should realize that there is no such thing as cherry picking on these GPUs. The rest that aren’t as capable will be placed into Tier 2, 3, 4, Hufflepuff, and until there are a few derps left that couldn’t understand jack, they are sent back to NVIDIA for other life choice reconsideration. ![]()
