Hi, I got my 3090 KPE and it seems a good bin but unfortunately, the score I'm getting in PR doesn't match with the clockspeeds. The wattage was around 480-500W.
https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/55398081
Core locked at 1.10v 2280MHz
Memory: +1200
Max temp: 50C
NVVDD 1.10v
FBVDD 1.4v
MSVDD 1.15v
Level 1, Off for both

That's a damn good average clock speed! I cant get anything over 2,16x in PR. Your score does seem low for that clock, I'm not sure why we are seeing these anomalies. I scored 15,302 with +150 core. My memory was at 1400+ however.
 
I've heard rumblings of the clock speed reported in PR is not actually reflected realtime, might want to investigate that or compare to GPU-Z average or something. 2200+ at 48C with 1.1 NVVDD would be exceptional AFAIK

It really has been bothering me to find out why low clock cards like mine and Sajin's (USMC's too, albeit you can actually hit 2200 peak) can get higher scores than those that boost 2200+ out of the box. I will say, though, yes, those that do clock higher on average also are the ones getting the ridiculous 15.6k+ scores, however, it seems the theory that higher average clocks directly correlate with higher PR scores is out the window. I hit 15.1k with an average of 2,130mhz, but Soldier is scoring 500 points less with a 2,215mhz average.
 
It'd also be interesting to know how that translates into something like game fps too. Would the card with average higher clocks or higher PR scores create better frames?

15226 ... Only thing I did was flip to LN2 bios, max power in PX1 and do a 150/1100 offset. Spent maybe an hour messing with it all. I'm sure I could get more if I wanted to mess with the switches but I'm happy with that. It's for gaming after all.

You must have been doing something about the cooling, 33C is not normal unless you're sub-ambient or doing ice bucket? I had 5C outside air blowing into mine last night and could only manage a lowest of 37C with ML120s pushing it through.
 
Regardless, great run, nice clock speeds too.

That might have been the run I had the window open.(window is a couple feet away) I do have it setup with a push/pull setup in my case.  The stock fans are pushing and 3 ml120s are pulling. 
 
Nothing crazy like an ice bucket or anything. 

got the 520 bios on my air strix, this one might be a good candidate for watercooling , getting 14 729 on air. there s hope i think, i could even do more but im getting power limited on the 520watt bios, dont rlly want to flash a 1000 watt bios on air

I think the problem is MSI Afterburner. I uninstalled it and used X1 with the same tweaks in classified tool. Score 15,404
https://www.3dmark.com/pr/680812
+165 Core 
+1200 Memory
Max temp: 49C
I also discovered that with OCP enable, the card would draw 450W max. Core clocks and voltage are the same. With OCP off, it's 490-500W and higher score.  
 

I can confirm px1 has nothing to do with it. I get the same scores using x1 or afterburner.

A few things I noticed that help inflate the PR scores for me is:
-If on a 4K display, drop to 1080p destkop resolution right before the benchmark run
-ensure MSI AF and/or PX1 are not running during the benchmark run, although I do keep GPU-Z minimized and logging to disk
-Nvidia Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings > “Texture Filtering - Quality” set to “High Performance” (that gained me almost +300 points on PR)

What version of MSI Afterburner do you have installed?
