I have done some more checks on this and as it turns out its the pump that is loud. If I have all the fans running at minimal RPM you can still hear the pump through the case. This is drowned out when fans all spin up higher including the GPU. There are only presets you can use for the pump as...

Hello all, Is it better to just use XMP for memory timings or is it worth inputting your own settings? Would there be any benefit to performance by doing it yourself? I have a 16gb kit of Corsair Vengence Pro RGB 3600mhz and running on XMP. Checking and the memory chips are samsung so not...

Fans are all plugged in to the control unit that comes with the cooler. I only plug the pump cable in to the mobo to confirm the RPM.

When you say 1:1 fan curve what do you mean sorry bud?

What do you have your mv curve set to bud? I have mine at 925mv @ 1900mhz and still high temps so want to lower it a bit without too much of a performance hit.

Looks like someone had been at the spreadable marshmallow stuff you can get. I guess the same thermal pads would be on all of their FE cards so does make me think about swapping mine.

To be honest I have not seen what the fans run at when fully loaded on auto. I have corsair Icue dashboard and that does show the RPM so might set fans to auto and then check that to see what fans max out at. Roll on watercooling!

I need to check but I think Afterburner has applied a 200mhz overclock to my vram as well. If so will remove that and try again to see what happens. I have had the fans set at auto before and they do ramp up quite loudly. In the future I am looking at watercooling the card anyway. It is a beast...

Ok so ran the Timespy extreme stress test which it passed but checking temp logs VRAM hit 110 max and the gpu hit 90 max but didnt go over either. That was with fan at 60% constantly. It passed the test but at 97.5%. Would think standard gaming would be ok though and will play some stuff later...

Ok thanks mate. I guess with it only having the vram on the front of the card it should be ok, Might just up the fan speed to 60% just to be sure.

Will be fine. I went from an RTX 2060 to a 3080 TI and didnt need to do anything.

Ta bud. Will get one of them installed and check again. Is there a high figure I should be concerned about? I dont mine and just game. Even then nothing too intense as I play at 1440p.

It ran through the full benchmark twice. If I set it to any lower mv then it crashed after a few seconds on few different runs.

How can I check that bud?

Ok so got my 3080 TI FE stable at 1900mhz at 925mv. Ran Timespy a few times and with fans at 50% temp didnt go above 80 degrees. Does that sound about right?

Always happy to have plenty of options to get the best out of things. My card is a 3080 TI but would assume same process as the 3080.

Thank you mate, I will have a look at that when I finish work! :-)

Can anyone explain to me the easiest way to undervolt the gpu? I was using MSI Afterburner to do this and swapped to EVGA precision and not quite sure if what I was doing was correct or not. Tried to follow videos on youtube on how to do it but still didnt make a massive amount of sense to me.

Seen a few people with the rad at the front but with the fans set to pull air through it as it makes it easier to clean dust out of the rad. Anyone else done this or is there no benefit?

Yea I think I saw a similar video a while ago. Liquid temp doesnt really change much depending on the order. I am just interested to see what approach people go with. I think 2 radiators will dissipate enough heat. Another question is do people go push pull on the rads or just one or the other?
