This allows you to automaticallyoverclocksyour NVIDIA GPU while ensuring that your GPUs thermal management system is not overburdened.
It’s a safe, one-click overclock that doesnt affect your warranty.
If you haven’t got it already,download the latest versionof the NVIDIA app.

Automatic overclock isnt limited to the NVIDIA App.
Next, bring up the app and enter the System tab.
Once there, tap the Performance tab and then fire up the Automatic Tuning toggle.
Just let the program run and double-check to close all unnecessary apps running in the background.
Once the testing phase finishes, the app will list your results.
Back then, I settled for ~120MHz boost to my GPU clock and +1000MHz for memory.
Does Auto Overclock Bring Any Performance Gains?
Personally, Ive never daily driven my RTX 3070 in an overclocked state.
Instead, Iundervoltedthe GPU @925mV and applied a +1000MHz memory overclock shortly after buying it.
Later, I reverted the memory clock to default because the performance gains from running overclocked memory were minuscule.
Naturally, I wanted to find out whether the automatic overclock gave my GPU any performance boost.
With the auto overclock applied, the GPU has achieved the highest overall score.
That said, the score isnt significantly higher than in other instances.
I estimate that the real-world performance boost in games would be less than 5%.
The Gigabyte RTX 3070 Eagle OC that I picked up has a fairly poor cooling solution.
In fact, theres always a slim chance of breaking your GPU or CPU when overclocking it.
Of course, you’ll need to be in the valid warranty period for this to apply.
So, as long as you keep quiet about your overclocking adventures, you should be fine.
