Hello EVGA Community, I was able to overclock my EVGA GTX 1080 FTW very nicely and want to share it with you. Temps are arround 40°C~ max under Furmark, with the EKWB Waterblock installed. Power Target Core Clock Curve - 2278 MHz (+262.5 MHz Offset @ 1.062 V)
- 2240 MHz (+225 MHz Offset @ 1.050 V)
- 2165 MHz (+150 MHz Offset @ 1.043 V)
- 2115 MHz (+100 MHz Offset @ 1.031 V)
Memory Clock - 5556 MHz (+550 MHz Offset)
Graphics Score- 3dmark.com/3dm/15193791 Fire Strike Extreme: 11824
- 3dmark.com/3dm/15193857 Fire Strike Ultra: 5866
- 3dmark.com/3dm/15193932 Time Spy: 8190
Additional note: If I set my voltage higher than 1.062 V (1.075+ V) then the oc results seem to get worse, which is really strange. The higher the voltage from 1.062, the worse it gets (the benchmarks will freeze earlier etc). I don't know I though the higher the voltage, the better the results, I can't explain. Maybe some of you could explain it to me?

add a space after the www. so we can see those links!
Is it 100% game stable?

Well I added the links as text now, I didn't know EVGA forum autofilters links. I have no idea how to add pictures to this thread, like screenshots with higher resolution.. It is 100% stable, in any scenario

Well, you're the fastest 1080 OC on air or water that I've ever seen - prior the tippy top was around 2166MHz. I don't suppose you have a regular 1080P firestrike score, do you? Or a Valley bench result? I'd like to compare with my current 980 Ti  Edit: and what driver version are you running?

@arestavo I do, lemme find that for you in my results:

Additional information: I used Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut Liquid Metal as thermal compound and I'm very satisfied with the temps. Driver is the newest 372.90.

Awesome thank you! I'm using Grizzly Kryonaut on my 980Ti with a Kraken X41 - it's only a bit better than the ICDiamond that I was using before, but every degree C helps! And hopefully your liquid metal doesn't dry out like the last liquid metal TIM I tried out (Coollabratory Liquid Ultra). Temps did rise when it dried out on both the 3920XM and 780Ms on my Alienware M18X R2, and on my old 3930K CPU. All applications didn't last more than 8 months. Your 1080 is ~25% faster in DX12's Timespy, and ~15% faster at firestrike 4K and 1080P. Hopefully my incoming step-up 1080 ACX (that I will also put under AIO cooling) will be in the 2100MHz range! I doubt I'll get as lucky as you did.

Yes, more is not always better Voltage leakage and thermals can cause issue if you add too much +mV Pascal GPUs do not always have a 1:1, with OC:Performance ----> so more OC does Not always = more performance, you have to test it Benchmarks are a nice start, they are synthetic and games may require you to dial it back a bit for stability looks like you won the silicone lottery with that GPU

A question here did you kept the original EVGA backplate with the EK waterblock? Is it possible? EK say no but as always, there are some way to make the EK screws fit. Thank you and GG for you're super OC.

@ arestavo: thanks for this quick comparison, very nice to know! :)
@ Ptiwhisky: wow nice idea, I didn't think of that when I assembled the watercoolblock. I got the nickel backplate from EKWB for the 1080 FTW specifically, which is mounted by 5 screws from the backside and one screw from the front side. Tbh if you use the EKWB backplate screws to mount the EVGA backplate on the 1080 FTW, where the waterblock is already installed, it would fit from my point of view.
The EVGA backplate has 21 screwholes, 4 of them are for the bigger than the others because they are for the GPU chip exclusively, another one is for the IO bracket exclusively. Which means:
21 - 4 - 1 = 16 Screwholes which are open. Minus the screws you would use to mount the EVGA backplate on the card (minus 5 + 1) = 10 holes unused.
Furthermore another major difference is the EKWB backplate has some thermal pads installed with it, at the GPU and the VRM spot from the backside. They would be 100% visible if you use original EVGA backplate in combination with the EKWB thermal pads.
In conclusion: In my perspective the original backplate would fit on a EKWB waterblock installed 1080 FTW graphicscard, because there isn't anything additional resistent in the way from the backside if you install the waterblock, besides the screws which are used to mount the waterblock itself. Screwholes are still the same, so no reason why it shouldn't fit. Thermal pads would be visible through the mesh and alot of screwholes would be unused, but it isn't a big of a problem I guess.
Keep in mind I can not guarantee you anything, just given you my perspective of view. I'll definitively try it out next time when I try the loop. Thanks for the idea though mate!

I did not end up getting the back plate, but have not installed the block yet. Is there anything that needs to be cooled on the backside to warrant purchasing it other then aesthetics? I just couldn't justify spend almost $50 for just the back-plate, if it was like $20 I would have probably just bought one.

@ raidflex Well you have that thermal pads "cooling" the gpu and VRM from the backside of your card kappa. Tbh it is pure aesthetics u pay for backplate, the thermal pads are marketing strat imo. I think the nickel backplate looks way better in real life than it looks like in pictures at the shop. It has some kind of mirror touch in your system and looks very clean. I don't know if the evga "industrial design" backplate would fit with the clean plexi waterblock, although the industrial design looks really badass in combination with the original FTW cooler.

I would probably just leave the backplate completely off, I do agree it would look better with it on the GPU. But as long as leaving it off does not effect overclocking/cooling then I would be fine with it.

Yeah I left mine my backplates off since the ek screws were too fat to fit there the small holes of the evga classified backplate. This was with the older ek 780 cLassi find water block. It will also fit on the new 1080 classified since it's the same pcb.
Another member managed to get the evga backplate on with the block using different screws he had with older ek blocks.
Personally it did not matter to me since I can't see the backplate with my horizontal mb. Plus I always read about people saying that it's a heat trap and the card ran cooler with the backplate off.

Oh btw.. last night I got my 2 classifieds up and runing in my new water cooled loop using 2 ek ex 320 thick 60mm rads and holy cow I was not expecting tempts in the 30s on load! I had 2 1080 hybrids prior and they ran in the 40-47c on load.
Temps were warmer in my basement last night at 73c and one card idles at 26c and the other at 31c. On load rhe max temps I seen was 34-35c and 37-38c but mostly in the lower range hehe. I could not believe it!
That's heavy overclocks as well. I did get them to bench together at 2240mhz!!! I find that nuts as prior the max I could get these twords to play nice together was 2114mhz stable! Max one card wanted to run was 2190 but only stable at 2164 and the other 2164mhz.
I also discovered that a hair lower voltage from 1.094v down to 1.084v allowed me to bench at 2240mhz!
So now I'm excited to test again with lower volts after reading you say lower volts helped!

Older classified.. the ek 780 classy was made to fit the 780,980 classified and kingpin card I believe.
Ek was going to make a new classified 1080 block but there was some fall out between evga and ek so the project was tossed.

Additional note: If I set my voltage higher than 1.062 V (1.075+ V) then the oc results seem to get worse, which is really strange. The higher the voltage from 1.062, the worse it gets (the benchmarks will freeze earlier etc). I don't know I though the higher the voltage, the better the results, I can't explain. Maybe some of you could explain it to me?
P = U x I ==> so if you raise your Voltage Power goes Up an PT is hit , i finished EKWB installation on my Card also this Weekend but had only some hours time left over to test / game and i decidet to game more :-P I set Offset +100MHz on core and 491Mhz on Mem , slave Bios with +30% PT , Voltage and Temptarget untouched , resulted in 2110~2126 core @1.050-1.062V and 5500MHz mem , Maximum PT hit was 126% peak, temp after 3 h gaming was 49°C with ~38°c water temperature. So i guess i wont get much higher with the clocks without hitting PT an card start slowing down despite higher clocks. Its time a Bioseditor gets released so PT gets raised higher :-) Some images:

A question here did you kept the original EVGA backplate with the EK waterblock? Is it possible? EK say no but as always, there are some way to make the EK screws fit. Thank you and GG for you're super OC.
No way to get the EVGA backplate to fit, the EVGA backplate is attached by the reference cooler, no way to make it work with the EK waterblock that I saw...

Someone won the lottery! Nice chip you got there! I was happy to see my 1080 F|E hit 2025mhz in Valley, 2270mhz is a monster OC!! Take good care of that one!

I really need to sort out this manual voltage curve stuff, had 2214 "stable" but it doesnt appear it was stable enough as my score dropped.

Yeah it's tricky to use the manual voltage thingy. If you change the memory you will loose your voltage selection so I always have to make sure to go back to the manual voltage area and select the same voltage spot and hit enter to keep that setting. Would be just way too easy if one could just go in there and select all the voltages to use for ea core mhz and save it for good. Though as some havery said, higher overclock don't always mean higher fps. And benchmarks like 3dmark always are up and down ea run.

I am not understanding how sometimes I can set the offset, monitoring tools report that its supposed to be running 2214, but it in fact is running stock speeds. I guess I need to better understand how the manual voltages ramp themselves up - Thermals are fine, idle is 32C and load is 38C in Furmark so far.
