Can you describe your issue?

I am unfortunately having the same issue :(




Can you describe your issue?




For some reason, I am getting power-limited in the 460-470W range across multiple workloads/benchmarks.
Maximum PCIe slot power draw I saw across Time Spy Extreme, Port Royal, etc. was 66.88w according to HWiNFO64.
I am running the LN2 BIOS, confirmed 520W/121% PL slider.

Everyone here posting about a "low" TDP% in Timespy Extreme
 
Please use HWINFo64 and compare the TDP% and TDP Normalized %, please.
GPU-Z does not show TDP Normalized.
 
Also if you have time, do the same run on "Superposition 4k--custom--extreme shaders" and compare it to "Superposition 4k optimized" (again look at TDP vs TDP Normalized!!)
Report back.
 
I have a theory, but I need you guys to test this for me because I do NOT have an eVGA card.  I have a shunt modded 3090 FE, and I can draw up to 600W without hitting the power limit, but there is "something" going on with both Timespy Extreme and "Superposition 4k--extreme shaders (custom)" that does NOT happen with Timespy nor 4k Optimized.
 
Also note that 4k extreme shaders in Superposition has a MUCH MUCH MUCH lower FPS than 4k optimized.
 
I need you guys to do some testing and REPORT your TDP Normalized vs TDP % vs "TDP Slider % set".   I am Falkentyne on overclock.net, by the way.

Never hit 520. Pwr cap. Timespy extreme

I don't see 500+ on PR or anything in 3dMark.  Moment I fire up Furmark and run the short little 4k test, it pulls 500-520 consistently.  
 
I'm not seeing any downclocking though .. it's a rock solid clock throughout PR or even when gaming.

Can't believe I have shunt mod a "LN2" card to get the advertised power limit. 110% power target is the upper limit with a 460-470w board power draw in timespy extreme GPU test 1. GPU test 2 will see some spikes over 500w but stays well below 99.9% of the time. PCIE power draw typically 55-60w. Strongly considering an RMA, will wait for my ftw3 block first I think. Can't go back to air cooled noise hell with this right now.

Lol. Shunt modding isn’t going to help you hit the max power limit. Shunt modding removes power limits. To hit the 520w limit on the kingpin card you need to increase your voltage using the classified tool.

Shunting moves the power limit up, doesn't remove it. Was referring to shunting pcie only in this instance. Classified tool isn't going to change this.

From the 2080ti kp xdevs page: 
 
"Make sure to max out power limiters to ensure best performance, even when reported power levels looks same. Now you may ask, how can I get card to show advertised 520W in Precision X1 or OLED? Well, that’s a lot of power and Precision X1 will give you only averaged value. The performance will be capped significantly way before you’d be able to reach averaged 520W power reporting in PX1."
 
 
Following TiN's word's above: is 520W not a limit, rather than target?
 
Also, I'm afraid I can't lend much credibility to the hardware rev. theory being crafted in this thread: I believe I have one of the first cards shipped (processed before thanksgiving) and my pcie slot draws are well under the spec.

It doesn’t move it up. It lowers the reading so you can get around limits.
