Aorus GeForce GTX 1060 9Gbps Overclocking

Using Aorus Graphics Engine, we initially set the power limit to 111 percent and the temperature limit to 92°C – the highest available values. We also set the GPU voltage slider to 100 percent for good measure.

With these settings, we hit a final stable overclock of 1,717MHz for the base clock, giving us a reported boost clock of 1,945MHz. This is a 110MHz increase over the out-of-box speeds, or seven percent (14 percent over reference speeds).

We also managed a clock speed of 2.475GHz on the memory for an effective speed of 9.9Gbps – a 10 percent boost over the new default speed of 9Gbps.
