Hi all, This is a reference thread for those who need it with regards to temperatures / 3DMark scores: Specs / setup: Case: Cooler Master C700P PSU: Lepa G1600-MA Mobo: Asus Crosshair VIII Formula Mem: 128 GB Kingston KHX3200C16D4/32GX CPU: AMD x5950 Cooling: Kraken NTZ Z73 AIO top-mounted...

I've aligned with the OC specs; Simply added 165 mhz Core clock, and set the PL to 112% (390 TDP), and the results speak for itself: TS: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/70540804 (GPU score 20367) PR: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/70541325 (GPU score 13801) 🎉🥳

To close the loop, I found the reason why reviews show 3090s that have slightly better scores than the 3080 Ti FE...: My card (Strix 3090) has a stock boostclock of 1695 mhz @350 tdp. The cards used in those reviews are the MSI Trio version with a boostclock of 1785 mhz @370 tdp.. it adds up...

TimeSpy Extreme @ Default / Stock: https://www.3dmark.com/spy/25428861 This is more like it... and rather how I'd expect the 'normal' TS to run as well. At any rate, I think I'm good. It's all marginal with a few deviations, and as mnewxcv mentioned, it's rather inline with other 'stock'...

https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/70483388 Well, atleast it's consistent with scoring below average :LOL: Score is 12.8k, so on the ball with the 13k. Interesting again how the GPU decides to run at a 1785 clock speed. Atleast the average isn't far off this time... :whistle:

Afaik, this is what it's supposed to do. PBO does some autoclocking, these values are all over the place by default. The idea is it overclocks itself when needed, and goes down when idle. Behaviour when idle -> opening Outlook

Can you elaborate? Currently I have PBO and all settings with regards to the Bios on 'Auto'. The only thing I changed there is the memory profile (OCMP) so it runs 3200.

Interesting that post :) I read it a couple of days ago, and yes, it gave me some piece of mind. So, the whole 'issue' here is that I've lost the silicon lottery, as where you had won it? ;) Was thinking also about my RAM speeds... it shouldn't count to GPU score, but I read a lot of posts of...

Hi Pendragon, no, I didn't alter the resolution in TimeSpy. It's the default. My monitor is a 3840 x 1600 though. Afaik, it shouldn't matter as it gets upscaled. The benchmark is default. Fairly recent, not many applications installed and definitly not much running (I close everything that's...

Thanks for your replies so far. Furious_Styles: Yep, G-Sync is turned off. Pendragon: It's a new card, bought it in March last year (2021). mnewxcv: I've done a undervolt following your guide (thanks for that!). My results (2040 curve) @ stock with the undervolt / 100% power...

Hi Denpepe, Yep, using 3 separate cables. I have a 1500 watt PSU, so I'd think it's fine. I've installed the AIO Alphacool Eiswolf 2 waterblock today. It lowered my GPU temperature to 25c idle, 48c when benchmarking. Vram is between 35 (idle) and 56 (bench), while memory junction is 38c...

I did think of that as well, but my GPU temp is around 55c, and memory between 60-70c when benchmarking. Rather low, but then again, I've got some good cooling in my case. Also GPU-Z never mentions thermal throttling as a perf cap, always power limit... Tomorrow I'm receiving my AIO waterblock...

Solved: nothing wrong with the card. The Asus Rog Strix 3090 (non-oc) has a stock boostclock of 1695 mhz @ 350 TDP. This is low compared to other cards (e.g MSI Trio) which have a stock boost of 1785 mhz @ 370 TDP. It explains the difference in scores and reviews. After adding 165 mhz Core clock...

I've decrypted the drive, and did the Benchmark again. I get the same results, leading me to believe it has no performance impact. However, my SATA ports are SATA3, so that might explain the difference between my benchmark and that of CWaffles :P Thanks for the explanation Westrock2000.

Alas, not supported on my CPU... i7 975.
