Let us now turn to the benchmarks, whereby I have omitted all subbenchmarks for the sake of clarity. The whole thing is still meaningful enough to draw a robust conclusion. However, we can already summarize in advance that the actual additional performance does not exceed 10 to 15 percent and is even significantly lower in some cases. Good for the fun factor, but deadly for the efficiency. That’s exactly why overclocking in this form doesn’t really make sense. Nevertheless, today’s experiment is at least a feasibility study, and it clearly shows why workstation cards should be operated as close to the sweet spot as possible.

However, some normalized results show smaller differences in the numerical values than in the individual tests. Since this affects all cards equally and is in the nature of things, the bars are still clear.

Summary and conclusion
Maybe we should start at the beginning. The water-cooling modification was definitely worthwhile. You gain more clock speed without manual overclocking and also sit in silence because the loud fan is omitted. That can please and does not even cost a lot of money. Nice side effect: I showed Alphacool the cooler and the board and it is now also possible to order an already fitting cooler there directly. So the cutout is already included.
The unlocking with the MorePowerTool is a great thing, because you could even influence the fan control. The overclocking is a successful operation, but rather nothing for everyday use. But it shows that it would work if you wanted to. Only one won’t need it in practice, unless one flattens a Quadro RTX like absolutely necessary. Whereby Boost also fully strikes when the chip is pressed below 40°C. This is also noticeable then.
And the conclusion of the whole action? We are a bit smarter again, the tool works and whoever wants to give the monkey some sugar may do so. The biggest gain is the better cooling and there are even suitable coolers for it. Well then, water march!
