/g/ my attempt at OC,
i5 4690 3,9 -> 4,3
ram 1600->2133
r9 390 1010->1080
and i see no difference in gaming performance.
and a slight performance in benchmarks (as in 1/3%)
is this normal? or am i doing something wrong?
Probably wont see much of a performance increase with such a light OC. My i5 6600k runs 3.5 stock and didnt see much of a performance boost till I hit 4.8. But even then we are talking 10-15fps with exception of GTA V where it made a huge difference. Ive got a r9 390 as well but it does'nt OC that well.

yeah. anything over 1080 without changing voltage produces artifacts already.
well then i guess ill oc the cpu some more. though i dont like anything running over 70*
>>55315387
you see difference in futuremark score

What cpu cooler are you using?

I`ve got 4.8 i5 4690k, 2400 mem and r9 390 oced to 1180 and believe me it isn`t that fast.

I tried to beat the shit out of my pc on firestrike. Somehow insane voltage on MSI cards helped to get 1.2 GHz on 390 http://www.3dmark.com/fs/6933815

Looks decent. Id suggest changing the fan and strapping a second one on the other side if you can. Might help with the temps when pushing the OC further.
>>55315912
yeah, ive been meaning to get the second fan there. thanks.

Totally normal. You won't see anything except you do heavy OC, like a Titan X 1000>1500 MHz. It gave me average 15 FPS in 4K.
>>55316419
so there is basically no point in light OC ?
>>55316521
Not really. It just boosts benchmarks and 1 FPS in games. I wouldn't OC at all if you don't see any improvements. A 390 is already a hellish OC'd 290, it doesn't do much more. If you need more performance buy a 1070 or 490 later.

yeah, im getting married in two months, and after that im spending all my fucking money on new gpu.
be it 1070 or some 1080ti, or 490 idc , just the strongest thing available.
>>55316739
A 390 is still decent. I wouldn't upgrade to anything lower than a 1070, but a 1080Ti will be nice, if you play past 1080p.
>>55317360
im staying at 1080p for a while, but im aiming at 144hz. as in i already have 1080p 144hz monitor and it would be nice to make use of it in something other than WoW.
