TECH NEWS – The “butchered” RTX 5090 made for China set new overclocking records in several benchmarks with its phenomenal clock speeds.

The Galax GeForce RTX 5090 D just set a new world record for overclocking: at 3,650 MHz, it topped the charts in 3DMark Port Royal, Unigine Superposition, and GPUPI. The OGS team is known for their record-breaking prowess, and this time they pulled it off with Nvidia’s RTX 5090 D.

For this run, Team OGS used a Galax GeForce RTX 5090 D XOC graphics card, Intel Core i9-14900KF CPU, and an Asus ROG Maximus Z790 Apex Encore motherboard. Stavros from Team OGS revealed details about the overclock: they used an XOC BIOS with a 2,000 W power limit. The Galax RTX 5090 D HOF XOC features two 12V-2×6 connectors capable of supplying up to 600 W each, providing up to 1,200 W and leaving plenty of headroom in the BIOS.

In the tests, the GPU topped 3.6 GHz in one benchmark and went over 3.5 GHz in two others. The max clock of 3,650 MHz was achieved in GPUPI, where it finished in 39.434 seconds. Even the memory was pushed to 36 Gbps, a 28.5% increase over the standard RTX 5090’s 28 Gbps GDDR7. The stock RTX 5090 D can reach up to 1.792 TB/s bandwidth, but with overclocking, they boosted it to 2.304 TB/s.

Benchmark results: Unigine Superposition 1080p Xtreme preset – 38,237 points (3,540 MHz GPU / 2,250 MHz VRAM), 3DMark Port Royal – 47,469 points (3,570 MHz GPU / 2,250 MHz VRAM), GPUPI v3.3 32B – 39.434 s (3,650 MHz GPU / 2,250 MHz VRAM).

So far, only the 5090 D has been pushed this far—who knows what’ll be possible when these BIOSes and PCBs hit standard GeForce RTX 5090 cards…
