> Would you buy a GPU that you could safely run Furmark on 24/7 if it was limited to, half or 3/4 of the clocks? Given that modern GPUs have complex frequency scaling algorithms that take temperature and power usage into account when setting clock speed, there's a good chance that a modern GPU will do exactly that. > Modern power management is smart enough to figure out when you're running a power virus and it will downclock to those safe levels, while us normies can get competitive clocks when running our real-world code. Which is perfectly fine, as long as the clock speed behavior is disclosed (which it is). What isn't fine is a product running at such a high speed from the factory that running certain workloads damages it.
