Alright, where to even start with this? So, I heard GALAX’s GeForce RTX 5090 D decided to go nuts and set these wild overclocking records. Honestly, it’s like watching someone run a marathon in flip-flops—impressive and kinda baffling. They hit some world records in 3DMark Port Royal, Unigine Superposition, and GPUPI. And get this, it was all done with a clock speed of 3650 MHz. No idea how they managed that.
So, there’s this team called OGS—been around the block a few times with setting records and all that jazz. They took the whole thing to a new level with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D from GALAX. It’s like they woke up one morning and thought, “Hey, let’s break everything.” Not really, but you get my drift.
They used this setup that sounds more like a formula for summoning something magical. It had a GALAX GeForce RTX 5090 D XOC GPU (whatever that means), an Intel Core i9-14900KF CPU, and an ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 APEX Encore motherboard. Stavros—OGS’s guy—gave some insights (which I totally didn’t understand on the first read) about using an XOC BIOS with a whopping 2000W power limit. That’s like plugging your toaster into a lightning bolt.
And with those results? The GPU went beyond 3.6 GHz scores here and 3.5 GHz scores there. The GPUPI benchmark hit 3650 MHz clock speed, finishing up in 39.434 seconds. It was like watching a race car zoom past while you’re fumbling with your camera.
Memory-wise, they ramped it up to 36 Gbps from a “measly” 28 Gbps. That’s a 28.5% jump! It’s like your morning coffee suddenly deciding to turn into a triple-shot espresso. The RTX 5090 went from a stock bandwidth of 1.792 TB/s to hitting 2.304 TB/s. Numbers, right? They say a lot or nothing at all.
Anyway, back to the main story—or was it the side story? Teams like OGS are out here making GPUs bend to their will, and it’s only a matter of time before this level of overclocking becomes standard with regular GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs. It’s like waiting for the next big thing, which might just be around the corner unless we get distracted by something shiny (or another crazy overclocking feat).
And that’s the gist of it. Like it, love it, or just shrug it off—whatever works.
