MSI RTX 2080 Duke Voltage?

[Crazycatman]

I've been unsuccessful and can't find any other info on the card. It doesn't overclock at all. 50+ Core and 100+ Ram, and that's it. It runs better with no overclock.

 I Think the DUKE name is one of the cheaper cards if I'm not mistaken. I have found a few $100 MSI 980Tis to mess with and I'm willing to downgrade to a 1080Ti. Im not willing to buy a 3080 or Ti model until they have fixed the crashing and burning stuff and come out with a new revision.

I'm not sure what the point of this post is. There is no question anywhere in it. 

 

The 980 ti was and probably will remain the last flagship card that had significant overclocking headroom.

 

The idea of downgrading to a 1080 ti or 980 ti from a 2080 just to be able to overclock more and still end up with worse performance is bizarre.

I have no voltage control, "MSI RTX 2080 DUKE Voltage?" , "I've been unsuccessful and can't find any other info on the card. It doesn't overclock at all. 50+ Core and 100+ Ram, and that's it."

That may be the case, but it is what it is. I guess you got a card that doesn’t OC well, bad luck with the silicon lottery + no voltage control = no OC headroom. But why would you downgrade to a 1080ti which is slower even when OCed? Just let the 2080 be a 2080, and it’ll be what it is. Honestly my 2080 doesn’t benefit from increased voltage, it just makes it run warmer with no gained boost bins to show for it. My power target is maxed, and that is what lets the core get as high as possible. Using EVGA precision auto curve OC, it gets me within 1 boost bin of spending hours manually trying, so I say just let precision do what it can, set a curve, and leave it be. I am able to get +1000 out of my memory tho, which is pretty impressive.

 

But, regardless of my and others experience since every card will be different, why would you downgrade? Don’t do that…

If I downgrade I will have better video editing support as Sony Vegas 13 14 half on 15, don't support the 2080. If I'm able to trade the card and make some money its well worth it to me. I've personal never had any problems until upgrading to this GPU and its kinda sad for 700$ that this card is a load of baloney  I've only had problems with it. And previous gen it was fine, even on my 1080 and 1060.

If the software you use doesn’t support it, sure. That’s a valid reason. I am surprised it wouldn’t support a 2080 tho. Is it not just cuda accelerated?

Sony/Magix has crap for GPU support I have come to understand. The amount of trouble to get a 10 series to work in 13/14 is bull####. 15 works the best by far using Nvenc. CUDA profile doesn't acknowledge new GPUs and uses CPU instead with it still selected. If I got rid of the GPU completely I'd be able to afford 1/4 of my fuel system for my Audi, which would only cover the Injectors.

Also any new Vegas Pro is plagued with issues and I haven't had a problem so I see no reason to change. Even people with 14 and 15 have problems and I have not ever had any, until using newer hardware which prompted me to test stuff for days before having reliable presets.

Answer seems easy then…. Dump the 2080, injectors, flex fuel sensor, fuel pump or boost a pump, whatever Audi land uses, and tuen it up to 11.

 

Or be a track day boi and not worry about all that, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, lol. Just get to blow money on consumables every few months.
