I gotta say, this is a nice surprise after not logging in for a while!

My Gigabyte 1080Ti Turbo is reaching 49.5 MH. It has always been a sluggish card compared to other 1080 Ti cards, so I wasn't even expecting that much of a boost.

Hello, so I have been messing around with this tool on my Asus gtx 1080ti turbo. And I've come across some very interesting findings. First of all I thought that this pill did not work Sad but after hours of getting worse hashrates than I did being for using the tool I lowered my power from 70% to 60% and my hashrates started going up! I found this weird, but not as weird as what I did next... I started lowering the memory! I found the sweet spot! Unfortunately after hours of tweaking the best hashrates I could muster is 44mh. But that is still a huge upgrade over my previous 36! My final and vest settings for my card are as follows.
60% power
+97 mhz clock
-303 mhz memory

Does anyone know why it would possibly run best with negative memory?

Since this tool seems to tighten timings, it sounds like your GPU's memory just can't handle tight timings at the same clock speeds.

Timings control how many clock cycles go by before the memory will do any more work. The tighter timings are making your memory work during times it would otherwise be (sort of) dormant. Think of it as overclocking without touching the clock speeds.
