RTX 2080 crashing after 5-10mins on (almost) any memory overclock

[GowaSky]

I found highest stable core clock, 135MHz but when i tried to find a good memory clock, IT crashed after 5-10mins. Should you do core and memory clocks separetely or core clock, leave The core on and then do the memory? 

If someone is wondering about components:

ASUS RTX 2080 Dual OC

I7-9700k

HyperX 2x8gb 3200MHz

(I have core voltage at 0%)

Have you tried memory with a lower core clock? It could just be unstable with that core. For instance I can't go over 100mhz on the core of my 2080S or I insta crash.

Some people OC Clock first, then keep that enabled and OC ram. 

I do both simultaneously but obviously that makes it harder to find potential issues. 

 

The thing is, your card is not guaranteed to work with any OC, so you might just have bad luck and got a bad overclocker.

I noticed that memory clocks 50, 100 and 200 MHz crashes almost right away, but 150MHz worked fine whole 20mins i kept it going. *Btw i just started overclocking*

So what you're saying i maybe just can't overclock my gpu?

Is your power limit maxed out? If not, then do so.

 

As for the system crash, what was your memory clock set to when it crashed?

I have Power limit maxed out (120) and temperature limit max (88°C)

My system didn't crash but The application crashed and system was laggy (frame per 5sec for a 30sec or something)

You didn't answer all of my questions (what was your memory clock set to when it crashed).

[GowaSky]

Sorry, My memory clock was 50, 100 & 200 when it crashed. It didn't crash on 150MHz(atleast not right away)

I'm not an expert but I would say if 50 and 100 on the memory crashes, 150 might not be stable. I would put on something like +100 on the core, ensure its stable in both benchmarks and (extended periods in) games, and then slowly bump your memory up by +25mhz increments, until you crash, then back off slightly, then ensure it's stable. Finding the right OC can be a lengthy process.

 

Also keep in mind that just because your memory can maybe go higher doesn't mean it's better. For instance I can max out my 2080S with +1500Mhz memory, and it's stable in benchmarks, but in Escape from Tarkov I noticed I was getting random flashes like a laser was being shone in my eyes, and in some cases such a high memory clock can lead to decreased performance.

Oh, ok. Thank you for the tips
