What kind of undervolts are people running on these?

I've just been playing around with my Gigabyte Gaming OC Pro tonight and have it running 1995mhz on the core @ 943mv - card is on the silent bios and doesn't breach 70 degrees with a fan speed never breaching 65%, quiet and fast so I'm happy (but I have a 3080 due next week!)
I could drop down to stock boost (1770mhz on this card) and try and push even less voltage but seems unnecessary given low temps and noise levels.

Just tested 1785mhz @ 812mv which is stable in Heaven 4.0 for 1hr30 - may try lowering voltage even more. Lower temps and fan speeds as expected

Thanks, got my 3060ti FE today and tried your settings to start with. 2010mhz @ 943mv on the default fan profile, max temp was 66c after an hour

Good stuff! There's probably more in the tank on both our cards for higher frequencies but I'm favouring the silence at the moment

Are you guys using afterburner on FE cards, had a quick look last night but voltage control was locked out.

Have you unlocked voltage control in the Afterburner settings?
Caporegime
I don't think you need voltage control if you're using the curve to undervolt.

I couldn't even see/monitor voltage without unlocking it, how did you ensure card was running at the specified voltage without being able to see it?
Edit: It's two separate boxes isn't it - my bad!

I always use GPU-Z to monitor voltage.

A little more playing about today, 2040mhz stable @ 950mv

Can you post your afterburner settings please?

This is on the 3060 Ti FE?
That's my screenshot from yesterday for 2010mhz.
Have you compared any before/after bench scores?
I'm incredibly intrigued. I have Afterburner installed but having not done this before I must admit I am cautious.

Nice for benches but not worth it in many of the games I've tried. Pretty sure I knacked the VRAM on an old card with high memory clocks. It would artifact even at stock after a while.
Didn't bench it before but the score would have been way lower as the FE only boosts to 1665mhz at stock.
Yes, that's what I thought, but just looking at mine with GPU-Z and it says 1980MHz when running the render test. Did I overclock a couple of weeks ago by accident and forget?!
People will consider (in comparison) a nasty looking, poorer quality and more expensive card due to pin connector
