A standout feature of RTX 50-series GPUs is their willingness to take some good old-fashioned overclocking. No-one was more surprised than us when we booted up stalwart overclocking tool MSI Afterburner and whacked the sliders up on some of our test cards; by contrast the past few generations of GPUs have had very little headroom to play with. For the new cards, however, there's often a surprising amount of performance left on the table.
Now, thanks to an update file from Unwinder, the creator of Afterburner, you can technically push RTX 50-series memory clocks even further—all the way up to a stonking 36 Gbps.
