ASUS STRIX OC 1080ti crashing under load

[--SID--]

CX600M is crap for a 1080 Ti. Bad voltage regulation, can't handle the powerspikes and low quality. Replace it!

Ive run It on my other 1080Ti for ages and its never had any issues. also I'm running it currently with my laptop on an external GPU unit with a different power supply and the issue is still present

Ok, i see. In this case i wouldnt actually recommend undervolting as its not like super easy and can make the card actually unstable, seems kinda counter productive lol… 

 

Also voltage already seems quite low - for whatever reason - 

 

So what you can do, use that setting (lower memory clocks) + set power  limit to 90%, or 80% …

 

 

If theres still artefacts, lower memory clock even more, at some point it should stop artefacting… thats your goal for now…  

I tried it with the clocks as low as afterburner would let me go and kept gradually lowering the power from 100 down 80 and the power made no difference. It plays fine with the lowered clock until I leave it paused for a while at which point it freezes.

well that points to damaged vram then, but who knows could also be power delivery (on the card itself or elsewhere)

i mean Im fairly certain its vram, but these cards are old by now  it could be its not the only problem.

 

Gotta decide yourself if its usable or not - with lowered memory clocks, the bad news is it'll keep getting worse over time…

Might try going over with a multimeter if I can be bothered but I'll probably just sell it for parts, thanks for your help though!
