You are going to need to remove the big sticker to get to your GPU measure points. I've marked the memory measure points in the corner of the card.

I already checked them (those are the leads from the Caps.

Top one you circled reads 12v other I forget... (it might have been accurate)

The ones behind the sticker read. from bottom up... 1.25 1.35 1.35 and 5V (not sure about this one might have also been 1.35) the big cans on the board read 12v.

that is where I thought to read as well since they are supplying the voltage to the core/mem

1.25v and 1.35v are your GPU readings. The 1.35v is likely your input phase. The legs on the 2.5v caps are the ones you want to measure.

1.25 like low clock mode or something? I should get a chance to meter the mem again tonight.


I knew this gigabyte motherboard was good for something. Powering up video cards for voltage readings :)

You should be able to tell in EVGA precision is it's downclocking or not. If it's not downclocking it's likely the card's vdroop that is the difference between idle and load voltages.
