By now we know that overclocking Ampere is pretty much an exercise in futility, as we have seen precious little gains when overclocking our other review samples. Still, we tried again with the GamingPro OC, and managed an extra 80MHz to the GPU core, and 850MHz to the memory, bringing speeds to 20.7Gbps (a 9% increase.)

As expected, the real world performance gains were not big. At worst, we saw just a 3% improvement to frame rate in Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, and at best the extra frequency netted us improved frame rates of 5% in Total War Saga: Troy.
