It did need a slightly more aggressive fan profile, but now it maintains loads below 65c. I'm wondering if it's a lottery winner, because it boosts to 1999 on the master BIOS and can maintain that indefinitely as long as it stays cool. I haven't tried overclocking and probably won't just because of how good this is out of the box. Everything runs buttery smooth...Should have bought one of these last year; my old 1060 6gb really wasn't up to snuff for modern titles or VR.

Looks like you got a nice card as your getting a good stock OC, with no software tweaks & on stock BIOS

Is it a lottery winner?
Hard to say without knowing the max oc on the core.

Even if you don’t adjust the core frequency I’d still suggest applying a memory OC. Most cards can get between 800-1000Mhz extra out of the memory with no issue.

Just remember its x2. So if ya go +500 it's really 1000mhz more.

I could OC my FTW 1080 hybrid memory by 1000Mhz so indeed moving from 10Ghz stock to actual 12Ghz
and flashing the 11Ghz BIOS seen on this forum, I could get another 200Mhz extra.insane....and free!

Huh! I thought Pascal was basically locked down and unflashable. That's pretty neat. I'll probably give it a proper OC once I get some more spare time to fiddle with and benchmark it more. The little time I do have I'm enjoying what this thing spits onto my screen/Oculus. Zero hiccups with anything.

My FTW3 boost's to 2000mhz on the o.c. bios. Have o.c. to 2088mhz, but can't add any to the memory.

Mind sharing what your fan curve is?
