![]() Just having 100% load on a GPU does NOT mean all the internal components of the chip are working at full power, it just means SOME part of the GPU is fully stressed. ![]() This is why we try to stress overclocks to 'a little more' than a typical gaming scenario. Heavier engines tax the GPU and increase temperature > GPU will get forced into max boost / max vCore > higher temperatures increase current leakage > you get crashes. Boost clocks are in a way, a very gradual kind of throttling, except this throttling is voltage related instead of temperature limited. The GPU can get hotter and still work, but the amount of current leakage will increase, thus making that performance unstable. ![]() This is also the reason Nvidia's boost clocks are self-binning and will go lower when temps reach a certain threshold. There is a correlation between temperature, voltage and the amount of leakage you will incur on a chip.
