Overclocking gone wrong??

[Eirax]

Hi all,

I got a strix 3080 OC last week. Yesterday i tried to start overclocking. Stock i started port royal with around 11200. At the end of the day i was getting around 11600/11700 with increased temp and power limit. Today i was trying to optimise airflow to recheck and now most of the time i cant even get 11000. When reset i get around 10500. Any possible explanation? Did i damage something? Can be the power supply? I have one corsair AX860 from around 2014.

Thanks for the feedback.

Unfortunately that is not really enough to go on. Something is either limiting it or something changed.

Try using gpuz to see what if anything is limiting the card. It is possible that the changes to air flow had a negative impact on the card or the cpu might be hotter limiting boost.

Tried to run royal again 2 times, first all was normal but got a 0, second time started to get power consumption above TDP.

Sounds like it wasn’t stable. A lot of conditions have to be met. That’s been apparent with this series, especially for consecutive runs.

But now i cant even get the base score with the default profiles. I'm getting around 10500 and yesterday i was getting 11200 on default.
