A gamer pushed their RTX 5070 Ti with SK Hynix GDDR7 memory to new heights. They achieved a strong 21% memory clock boost, lifting speeds from 1750 MHz to 2125 MHz.
This overclock helped the Gigabyte RTX 5070 Ti Gaming OC score better in tests. The Time Spy benchmark jumped from about 28,460 to 30,426 points – roughly 7% higher performance. Nvidia recently started using SK Hynix GDDR7 memory alongside Samsung chips in their RTX 50 series cards.
The user tried flashing an AORUS Master BIOS onto their card to increase power limits. This failed because the AORUS uses Samsung memory instead of SK Hynix. Despite this setback, the results show SK Hynix memory works just as well as Samsung when pushed hard.
Most RTX 50 cards currently use Samsung GDDR7 memory. Soon, shoppers will see more SK Hynix-equipped cards in stores. Nvidia's decision to add a second memory supplier should help fix previous shortages reported with RTX 50 graphics cards.
Both memory companies compete to supply Nvidia with their latest tech. Adding SK Hynix as a second source for GDDR7 chips means more cards can reach gamers faster.
