Do I need to adjust voltage on a Gigabyte RTX 5060 OC?
It's a joke that an OC card crashes three times an hour in a remake; it was an absolute disaster. The Gigabyte RTX 5060 GAMING OC was running at 2600MHz, but the core voltage would dip by 0.06V during peaks, causing driver checksum errors and an immediate crash. I tried adding 32GB of virtual memory, but that just caused massive stuttering—a total waste of time. I finally opened MSI Afterburner and manually bumped the core voltage from 1.05V to 1.10V, while also sharpening the fan curve to hit 80% at 65°C. After a 12-hour stress test with zero errors, the crashes are gone. The only downside was that the core temp spiked to 78°C initially, but I managed to pull it down to 65°C - 72°C by swapping in a better case exhaust fan. VRAM usage is now stable between 6.8GB - 7.5GB, and the game finally feels solid.
