will there be for 3070 xc3 ultra gaming

Fourzero
For some reason the XOC bios doesn't even work for me. I switched to OC bios and installed it the way it says on the main page here, I checked GPU-Z, set power limit to max in MSI or X1 and run Unigine Heaven, the power is just stuck at 330 or so no matter what I do. Using Corsair HX1000i with 3 separate cables (not daisy chain)
 
Any idea what could be causing this? I hope the card isn't broken because it has 0 coil whine even at very high FPS.

You did reboot the pc after the bios flash right? Also, Heaven isn't a good bench for power, it doesn't pull that much (its good for stability tho). Try something else, like Timespy or port royal.

At least Jacob did aknowledged this issue right? I saw someone posted a screengrab of a tweet of his saying they're looking into it, and to "stay tuned"...

So, is the OC switch anything more than a Fan curve?

I don't think it's anything but a fan curve until you put the Beta Bios on the card.

@Scorpio

If you read my original post, I say one of the downsides is incorrect power reporting. Can't say for sure that's the only thing that's changed, but it's drastically reduced the frequency of me hitting power limit in regular gaming loads.

At some point I'd like to get a PCAT or external shunt to work out the actual current draw difference.

has anyone successfully shunt modded this card? i got some 5mohm resistors on the way. I am stuck in my overclocking adventure and need more  power to go further.

Please advise, which version should i use if i've converted my 3080 FTW3 Ultra to full water loop (used EKWB waterblock).
Now i use the XOC 450W version (Normal\OC)
 
Thank you in advance,

I would use this EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 FTW3 HYBRID. If you want to control pump from card. But since you have custom loop. You are good with standard bios.

There is definitely a serious issue with this card. You really have to try to get it to draw 450w.... Evga screwed up something on this card. There is no way you are going to actually get 118% power draw... I get small spikes in 440w but that's it. I don't think it's real at all...
