Hello Evga team, My gtx 1080 ti ftw3 is capped at 63% Power limit = 170watt. Running Superposition benchmark in normal and oc mode get limited at 63% powerlimit. Instead of 10000 points in superposition benchmark i now only get 6000. Limiting powerlimit further in afterburner more than 60% works, but opening it up to its full 127% does not work. Both bios’ have the same issue. I tried: another power supply, checking cables and connections and reinstalling GPU drivers, afterburener and evga x0c software. Here’s a screenshot of afterburner My hardware: msi z270 gamimg m7 - i7-7700k - testet power supply corsair hx750i and ax1200i BIOS GPU-Z  Superposition Benchmark 4K - without OC  Is my GPU broken? best regards, Christian

If it won't go past those clocks, it's RMA time.

Is my GPU broken?
Looks like it. Have you tried to test the card in a different pci-e slot?

I'd send it in if flashing the vbios listed in post #5 doesn't fix the problem.

Ok, which bios is the right for my gtx 1080ti ftw3? I have the P/N:11G-P4-6696-KR (EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FTW3 GAMING, 11G-P4-6696-KR, 11GB GDDR5X, iCX Technology - 9 Thermal Sensors & RGB LED G/P/M) and the P/N: 400-HY-5698-B1 (EVGA GTX 1080 Ti FTW3 HYBRID Waterblock Cooler, Cooling)

How come the fan speed is max at 18%? Are you running both afterburner and pxoc at the same time? GPU temp max is 36c.. max clocks 1975mhz. You have a water block on it?

Looks like the vbios didn't update properly. Try flashing it again.

Oh … the bios update simpel :) ... the new version is confirmed..
But i have the same Problem, power Limit ~60% :( :-( :-( :-(
Something is not right. Either it was affected by PXOC or having both MSI AB and PXOC both installed Look at the zeroed out GPU clock versus the default clock in that GPU-Z screen grab - compare it to the one I just took of mine blow  I have been using AB instead of PXOC. With the bios you just updated too you should be able at least test the setting I have been using below. Mind you this is on a custom loop.  Look at the AB Settings and then look what the card was pulling shown in the HWiNFO64 window

On one screen shot he had pxoc running and the afterburner osd server.. forgot the name of that separate program that runs with afterburner.
Kind of strange he is having this issue cause in the first screen shot the card maxed out at like 2035mhz and hit 1.94v.. I would think in order to do that he would have to be using more then 63% power do maybe the monitor is off and reporting wrong.. maybe cause the other osd software is open.

The settings above are my conservative settings - after looking at the post above things are not very clear - GPU was at +52 and the memory +650. Compared to the +65gpu and +843memory when I set all radiator fans on high and am messing with Superposition

ok guys, thanks for the answers. Only EVGA Precision XOC is installed, riva tuner statistik Server is uninstalled. I flashed the slave BIOS again  After this i reboot he Computer and uninstalled the nvida driver with the "Display Driver Tool" and the evga tool, reboot and reinstall the nvida driver.  GPU-Z after BIOS Flash and driver reinstall.  Before valley benchmark is running (withou oc) -->  After 1 minute benchmark:

Anyhow how you don't need any utility installed except GPU-Z. Its graphic utility will load the GPU enough to see if your clocks are correct. I don't think I've ever seen a GPU recovery when it is locked at that clock speed.

Here the etst with OC:
Benchmark after 1 minute
Okay? Nothing showing. If it is locked at the same clocks messing with sliders on the utilities just adds noise. You don't need them and should uninstall them for troubleshooting.

As his post #10 says, he is using the hybrid cooler. Sounds like he has the infamous FTW3 hybrid broken card power limit syndrome. 13 pages of the same symptoms: https://forums.evga.com/1...-Problem-m2721450.aspxhttps://forums.evga.com/FindPost/2833907
After speaking to an EVGA rep he said it's an issue with part of the shroud shorting a component on the board and the card refusing to apply additional voltage after that point to avoid damage. He didn't specify what part it was that caused the short but did reply "no" when I asked if it was the loose grill on the back of the card, responding "it's part of the shroud itself." He sounded very casual about the fact that EVGA just can't tell when they ship a hybrid cooler with the proper electrical tape (preventing the issue) versus one without the tape and suggested calling back in and sending them "pictures of the new coolers" once on the phone with a support rep so they could "make sure it has the electrical tape in the right spot" prior to installation.
EVGA agreed to RMA the cards (at my shipping expense both ways) ...
