To overclock the MSI GTX760 Gaming Mini ITX today we are using the latest V4.0.0 of MSI's Afterburner based on the excellent Rivatuner. We use AMD's Catalyst Control Center to overclock the Sapphire R9 285 ITX Compact.
Both cards indicate decent levels of overclocking headroom. The GTX760 could be pushed by a further 14.1% before artifacting would occur. The R9 285 exhibited 12.1% extra core clock speed. Let us see how this affects performance.
The clock increases help drive a little extra performance from both solutions.

Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition announced for all systems (including Switch 2)
Just under 10 years ago, Fallout 4 officially released to the world. While the game is far from perfect, it resonated with millions thanks to its sandbox-like design and focus on exploration among other ancillary additions (such as the settlement mechanic and base building). As they have done with many of their previous games, Bethesda has now officially announced Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition – bundling the base game alongside its DLC and hundreds of user-created mods.
Why are many reviewers of the R9 285 card saying that it has 32 ROPs when it has 64 ROPs? (GPU-Z) its funny because they state that it has 32 ROPs and they have a picture of GPU-Z saying 64 in the same page lol
The fact that the Sapphire card is able to consume so much more power and stay cool and quiet while being that size really is quite impressive, and I hope it means we see more high-end cards in that form factor. But yeah also means the new 970 ITX that’s coming will likely stomp it quite badly, 20nm can’t come soon enough!
970 is in other range of performance, but product and price too. it would be more comparable to a itx 960 or 950 ti.
That is very fair and I must admit I didn’t even consider what the price difference is, I was mainly thinking from a performance in ITX perspective.
I have this exact problem: GPU-z the latest version says 32 ROPs whereas most of the online reviews of the R9 285 ITX state 64 ROPs. Does anyone have a clue what the issue is here? Software bug in GPU-z? Thanks.
