Hi I have a 3090 and am trying to use PX1 to overclock.  The PX1 voltage control doesn't seem to do anything when I run a test benchmark.  Whether voltage is set to 0 or 100, it doesn't really make a difference.   Any clock > +100 will cause 3d mark / PR to crash.  Is this voltage number a % or a number?  How do I validate changes in voltage are actually happening?  I have HWInfo64 but haven't be able to figure it out yet.

CPU:     Intel 12900K EK 1700 Quantum Mag Acetel
GPU:     EVGA 3090 KPHC
MB:      EVGA Z690 Dark
PSU:     EVGA SuperNOVA 1600 P+
Memory:  G.SKILL Z5 6600mhz XMP3
NVME:    Samsung 980 Pro Gen 4 1TB, Gen 3 970 1TB
Cooling: MO-RA3 420 P/P 8x200mm Noctua HS PWM, Dual D5
Case:    Fractal Design Define 7

    Setting the voltage to 100% doesn’t actually force the card to use additional voltage like it did with older GPUs. When you set the voltage to 100% you’re actually allowing the gpu to use additional voltage if certain conditions are met. Setting the voltage to 100% also unlocks three additional voltage bins that aren’t available when set to 0%.

    Do I need the classified tool to make the magic happen Sajin?  Its a KP HC but on the Hybrid default set of bios files.  I posted some PR scores and results in the KP owner thread.

    I thought I was onto something and I'm so close to breaking 15k in PR but I really can't seem to crack that clock speed conundrum.

    Running the xoc vbios along with the classified tool will definitely get the card going faster.
