Hello. I run looped 3dmark 11 and i saw that clocks are dropping below advertised boost clock Boost Clock, 1582 MHz. Dropping to 1506- 1540- 1560mhz under load with 84C. I am using auto fan and stock settings. Can i rma because of this? I was thinking that clock always should be above Boost Clock, 1582 MHz. Card is 1080 Ti Fe.
 
Also i am getting that drop to 1500-1590mhz only in 3dmark . In games i have 1650-1800mhz, so airflow i think its ok. But still shouldnt dropping?
 
Hey. Appreciate for help me. I tested now GTA V and getting 1650-1770mhz clock during . Only looped 3dmark struggling my clock to low 1500mhz. Anyway its good that games are not throttling my card heh. And i dont have artifacts.

Mine does the same thing OP, you need an aggressive fan curve (easiest way is via MSI afterburner). The ti fe makes an enormous amount of heat and it throttles itself even on base clocks. Nvidia has set it so that when it hits 90 degrees? the clock speeds go down instead of the fans going up, which is a bit silly.

The upside is that once you have a fan curve set, you can overclock it pretty decently without adding extra noise or heat.

Hi your card is 1080 ti FE like mine? And your card doing the same thing ,on stock fan settings and stock clocks?


ps:
My case is Cooler Master Centurion 590 with side panel opened always.
 
No overclocking,no tweaking ,all stock and default.

The temp limit is default at 84. I thought at the default setting the fan is targeted at 50% and the card would start throttling once it hits 84c so it wouldn't go past the temp limit of 84. But in my experience it goes past that limit from time to time and the fan would spin at 60-65%. Is this normal? Again this is at default setting with nothing overclocked. Going past the temp limit hitting 85-86c ( without throttling , gpuz shows VREL or PWR limit instead of THRM ) with loud fan noise is worrisome. I'm not sure if this is a driver problem or this is normal?

I tried on 378,382 and newest drivers
 
Temps sometimes go past 84C to 86-87C and i dont have THermal limit drop in clocks in gpuz. Gpuz stating Pwr limit or voltage limit. Any ideas?
