Here we present the average clock speed for each graphics card while running Cyberpunk 2077 for 30 minutes. We use GPU-Z to record the GPU core frequency during gameplay. We calculate the average core frequency during the 30 minute run to present here.

Looking at the RTX 4070 Ti's clock speed under load, we have three data points shown on the above chart. As mentioned earlier, we downlocked the Gaming OC by 30MHz so it would match reference specifications, where we saw the card boost to 2790MHz. Using the default OC BIOS, with the 30MHz factory OC, resulted in the card running exactly 30MHz faster, averaging 2820MHz over our thirty minute stress test.

Interestingly, the GPU clock speed proved to be absolutely locked in at 2820MHz during our stress test. Usually the GPU frequency bounces around somewhat as the chip hits its power limit and drops back, but the 4070 Ti does not appear to be power limited at all, so we get a completely flat line when looking at the frequency chart.
