timings for 850xt PE

i am wondering about how to successfully adjust my timings. if somebody out there in driverheaven land wishes to post thier stock timings and adjusted timings for similar cards it would be a big help. i think i have the R480 core if that helps. I am trying to get a feel for
how i should adjust. I have VPU recover enabled just in case. Im hoping for a overall performance gain...

my idle temp is about 40c and load is 63c playing fear with only 60% fan speed. Im using a
stock cooler with ceramic thermpaste. i have a stock 460w PSU from dell. the other day i clocked my GPU to 580 and was getting 65c on bench and 40c on idle though i could have gone higher i really didn't see any point.

Timings don't make much difference and without extra voltage its not worth it. Just clock the memory as high as you can on stock timings and go from there

one thing that u need to rember is that tomshardware did a bench test on temps of the x850xt pe and recently thte x1900xtx and founs that the stock cooler at 100% with as5 cooled the best in the x850 and lost by a slim margin on the x1900xtx

and u wont get the timeings i wanted them for ocing my x800 since it had the same chips but to no avail people dont post them

Changing the timings on those things just plain doesn't make that much of a difference and unless you have easy access to the voltage control on it, it isn't worth it because you'll end up with corrupted desktop screens
