At 75% power (1980/925) there's pretty much zero headroom for memory OC'ing (it'll drop clocks if you do) - and, to be honest, it's not necessary - I added +500 to the VRAM just to get a nice, round 11000 MHz out of it 
If I let my 3090Ti run flat out with stock settings, it peaks at 1995 MHz and 450-ish watts - with those settings, even at 4k and an uncapped framerate, it shouldn't use more than 350W.

Tried your suggested settings and it's perfectly stable in benchmarks and games aswell as rendering programs, Appreciate the input and lower power
Last tip: If you want to use an FPS limiter, make sure you do it in the nVidia control panel - the only game crashes I've seen recently were when using RTSS' frame limiter - the nVidia one works without issue (though it isn't as precise).

How you set the specific voltage like that? Can you show you curve?At 75% power (1980/925) there's pretty much zero headroom for memory OC'ing (it'll drop clocks if you do) - and, to be honest, it's not necessary - I added +500 to the VRAM just to get a nice, round 11000 MHz out of it

Thanks. Do you leave the starting parts stock?
Soldato
Yes, Click, Hold and drag the very far right square down to the clock you want while also holding shift, In my case roughly 1980, Then drag the little square over the voltage you want up to the clock you want, Again roughly 1980 in my case, Click apply on the main Afterburner screen and it is then set, Just make sure to save it as a profile 1-5 and then also adjust max power.

Thanks Dice. Have applied the settings. Will have a go on Div 2 tonight as that's the one that seems to crash my OCs normally. Should be a good test.

Div2 is an absolute *bitch* on overclocks, any weakness in your system at all and that game will pick it up.

That is exactly why I use it. I know if it's stable on Div 2 I'm golden lol.

Well that's impressive. An hour on Div 2 and no crashes. Average of 100w lower and 10c lower too. Is there any downside at all!?

Not really, You won't have as high of a boost clock but shaving off maybe 2-3FPS is well worth 100w lower

2hrs is my benchmark usually, I've had it crash at 90mins and beyond.

Running my 6900XT at 240W atm and the clocks are still good (circa 21k TS) and perf more than enough for 1440pNot really, You won't have as high of a boost clock but shaving off maybe 2-3FPS is well worth 100w lower
So my not too distant financial situation took a turn for the better, Managed to get a job that my qualifications can actually earn me some money in while I wait for my course to earn my physiotherapy qualification next year, My first pay packet isn't for another month but I had a little put aside which I used to buy my ex work mates 3090 Ti for 500 clams, Which is crazy low I know, And he threw in his custom CableMod 12 pin, He wanted rid of it quickly due to moving country with his wife, He sold his 12900K, Motherboard and DDR5 memory in a bundle to another workmate for £300, Absolute madness !
Anyway loving the performance, Got a nice undervolt going too so in my current main game of The Witcher 3 at 1440P max settings, Mods up the yingyang, I see around 170watts at a locked 60FPS

Undervolting is such a nice tweak

Glad to see you back

The 3090Ti FE is down to £1100 on Nvidias own store, Crazy low price considering what it started out as.

I'd be interested in one myself if they hadn't recycled the 3090FE cooler and left it as-is (where most AiB's improved their's). Wasn't impressed with that tbh, could do with even a slight improvement imo (although I've not used so not a personally informed opinion).
