Lol, no, my b250m bazooka doesn't let you turn xmp on, and runs at 2666mhz, not 2133mhz. Like in cpus and everything.

Actually from what I read, MSI denied changing their design for the 3080 Gaming X Trio. The article here was update: https://www.tomshardware.com/news/msi-stealthily-revamps-geforce-rtx-3080-design-amid-stability-concerns
 
Here's the snippet: "Update 9/29/2020, 7:30am PT: MSI sent over images and a statement disputing any claims that it has changed the design on its 30-series GPUs. Included are four images of the backs of the cards, showing the capacitor configuration. The MSI RTX 3090 Gaming Trio and MSI RTX 3090 Ventus 3X have a layout with 4x SP-Caps and 2x MLCC clusters, while the MSI RTX 3080 Gaming Trio and MSI RTX 3080 Ventus 3X have a layout with 5x SP-Caps and 1x MLCC cluster. These are the cards that actually shipped to consumers and reviewers; earlier variants may have existed but apparently did not ship to anyone outside of MSI."

Does anyone think this is the RAM speed? Maybe we need to run it stock? Maybe 3600 is drawing too much power and overheating something? Could this overheat the VRMs?
