Hi, can I revert this oc bios by flashing the original bios extracted with GPU-Z with nvflash?

My memory OC is +1200 On air stable after long gaming sessions. If I lower the OC my time spy score gos down. How is that I can go so high on air? I got some magic memory? 😁

When you clock it that high, the higher clocks will over compensate the memory errors. You need to test it in 50 increments from 0 and you will find the point the performance will decrease (or not increase as much as you think it should comparatively)
 
My point happens right at about 400. If I push it to 1000, scores will be higher too and seemingly stable. but memory errors kick in at about 400 so it is not optimal.

I went from 0 and kept going higher until my time spy score went down. I lowered it by 100 and left it at 1200.

Isn't that the right way of overclocking memory? Higher time spy score =Better?

The lower I clock it , the lower the score.

What benchmark do you use?

So I'm really mulling between keeping my RTX 3080 XC3 or selling it to a friend and getting the RTX 3080 FTW3 Ultra.
 
I'm going to put either card under water so that removes the fan cooling from the equation.
 
The only thing I am left with is more possible power and thus possibly a better overclock.
 
I am able to get +150Mhz on the GPU with sliders maxed on the XC3.  I'm just not sure that it makes sense for me to get that extra wattage.  While it is fun for benchmarking and squeezing a few more FPS out, does it make sense?

If you are going under water for sure it makes more sense to have the FTW3 Ultra.  But tbh the difference in actual gaming fps will be maybe + 2-3fps in long gaming sessions.  All 3080's perform about the same.

Thank you.  I had ordered the FTW3 first, however, ended up getting lucky and getting an XC3.  It does make sense to cool the FTW3 more than the XC3, however, the gains just don't seem to be there as you had stated.

Alright, where can I find the stock bios so I can revert back?

Hi all
Anyone have a link to the original Ftw3 3080 Ultra bios.
i have the XOC on there now and i think its preventing me from updating to the hybrid kit version that i just installed. I thought if i flashed it back to the original then it would let me update to the hydro version.
thanks all
 

My 3080 FTW3 crashes with both bios when playing COD Cold War or Modern Warfare whenever it hits over 2000Mhz and I don't understand it. I have Lian Li case with 10 fans. It never gets over 60C.

Update windows, update Nvidia drivers, update system drivers, and make sure your power supply is good.
