For our manual overclocking tests, we used MSI Afterburner. Our best results are as below.

The good news for overclocking enthusiasts is that the TUF Gaming does allow you to increase the power limit all the way up to 600W, or a 33% increase using MSI Afterburner. We were able to add 200MHz to the GPU core and 1675MHz to the GDDR6X.

This saw the operating clock speed increase to 2955MHz, and in some games I tested it could hit closer to 3GHz.

As a result of that we saw decent overclocking gains, with performance increases in the 6-8% region, though that’s exactly what we’ve come to expect from overclocking the 4090 as a whole.
