Hey guys on a 3080 FTW3 Ultra should I be able to get more then +90 on core over clock. I get game crashes on anything higher and also with my New Alderlake 12700k I am getting screen flicker while watching videos like Youtube.
Just wondering if I have to RMA this thing. I have a 3080Ti now and that thing is nuts I can hit like +165 and its still asking for more :)
I would not OC to watch youtube videos or even game, Pushing the card for a 2 minute benchmark is one thing, but daily driving you should look at stock or undervolting settings. the 3 fps you get running the card at full tilt is not worth it for the extra heat and stress you put on your components
That's true for cards on air, especially undervolting to 0.9v, I find it gives a slightly better performance than stock and only consumes 2/3 of the power. The temp is also 10~15 C lower than stock. Undervolting to 0.8V lost about 5% of the performance.
For cards that use a liquid cooler, I think it's still worth overclocking the core (but not to its full limit; my card can do +195, and I only do +150 on daily use).
For mem, +1500 mem only give me 1~2 extra FPS and much more power draw and heat, so I give up on it.
