  • [Guide] How to force max voltage & curve overclock with msi afterburner (p.27)

This is a great thread. I will give this a try even though this seems a bit foreign to me. Really trying to max the power of my 2 1080 TI FTW3 for Cyberpunk2077 to get it to a place where I can get decent frames at close to ultra settings. Couldn't get a 3090 or 3080 so going to try and enhance what I have. 
 
Are there any threads for Overclocking RAM as well?

i have a 3080 ftw3 ultra, and i cant unlock the power setting with the latest version of msi afterburning. is there anything i have to do, ive already checked the unlock voltage off in settings.

The op has how to unlock voltage. Did that not work?

First off thanks for the guide!
 
I'm trying not to be a dummy but how do you find the max allowable voltage for your card? I understand stability/performance takes some testing to find the sweet spot for an individual card, but where do I get a (safe) starting point? I mostly just want to see how far I can push this 3080 FTW3 Ultra, not likely to leave it OC but perhaps depending on the gains.

Whatever the card uses at stock settings would be the safe starting voltage. I believe 1.093 or 1.100 is the max voltage for a 3080/3090.

How to find the max voltage of your card is detailed here... https://forums.evga.com/FindPost/2826074

1.093 on the 3080. This still works fine, especially since the boost lock button doesn't work on precision anymore as far as  can tell 

hooray for overkill

So I think I'm doing something wrong. My curve already looked like this when I hit ctrl+l. It jumped up to 1987MHz but I never saw the vertical white line. I think that's because the curve is correct. Did I just lose the lottery or is there something else I need to do? I noticed everyone else's screenshots don't have the 405MHz Memory clock.

Odd. Your memory clock should be running higher than that after applying the ctrl+l.
