Case in point: both Pascal and Turing Nvidia GPUs provide loads of extra boost clock speeds with every five-degree drop in temperature.

Getting the most out of your GPU is no longer restricted to prevent thermal throttling, but to ensure that the GPU runs as cool as possible. Modern GPUs tend to take manual overclocking control away from users and instead base it on thermal headroom. Monitoring the Fan Speed to verify proper operation along with using aggressive fan profiles should also help. An overheating GPU is a sign that remedial measures such as GPU heatsink cleaning and thermal paste reapplication is required. Keeping an eye on GPU temperature relative to the ambient temperature gives a good idea of the overall health of the cooling system of your graphics card. The following lays out the parameters you should take note of. That involves keeping an eye on numerous statistics involving thermal, utilization, power, voltage, and clock speeds for the CPU, GPU, and memory subsystems. RTSS comes with a long list of features and capabilities, but we are primarily interested in the capability to monitor hardware parameters to improve the gaming experience. There’s a lot here, so have a play around and do some customizing! Using RTSS to Monitor Hardware Performance Other games, meanwhile, will require the “Custom Direct3D support” option to be enabled. A good option for games, for example, is to enable Stealth mode, which will prevent it from interfering with anti-cheat software in online games. With Hades selected, I can now change the different RTSS settings specific to that game. I, for example, added the game Hades here.

One of the more interesting features here is that if you click Add at the bottom-left corner, you can add RTSS profiles for specific programs and apps.
