30xx Series Founders Edition

I've settled on this undervolt, seems to get good temps and fan profile etc. It will boost up to 1815 but then settles at 1800.

Still waiting to see if they are releasing the 3070T 16GB. I mean not sure if I should get a 3080 now, some folk are saying 10GB ain’t enough? :p:cry:

Def get that card, you can always shuffle down if/when that releases (could be weeks). If nvidia are releasing that extra 2Gb... we know they acknowledge the issue! :p:cry:
 
Nervous nelly about tweaking with things this expensive and hard to get.

By undervolting you'll (probably) be extending its like.

Take a look at the video I posted earlier on in this thread, it takes all of 60 +- seconds to do!
 
So I received mine early today. It has replaced a 6800XT and so far I'm noticing a marginal performance increase in Warzone, Rise of The Tomb Raider and Halo. Immediately did the undervolt to 850mV at 1800 and it sits around 62-65 degrees in games.

I'm still having my ongoing issue of anything above the refresh rate of the monitor (27GP850-B 180Hz) becomes choppy/stuttery. It's not screen tearing, it feels more like really low fps even though it can be sat at 220-230 fps. So my issue must lie elsewhere. Not sure if it's my understanding of Gsync/Freesync/VRR that is the problem (most likely) but from my limited understanding, if the screen does 180Hz and my game is sat at 220-230 fps, it should be butter smooth correct?

Could a motherboard be a cause of my problems? It's a MSI Tomahawk MAG Wifi with a 5800X.
 
Did you nuke the GPU driver when you switched from AMD to nvidia? Does sound like you could have conflicting settings on how your controlling the fps.

My general understanding is you find out the real range of your monitor from the manuf. spec, if the games supports it lock the range to within that spec. Gsync/Freesync should do a good job as long as its applied, but you can add other software settings that may counter it. For example on the AMD side if you ran Chill which adjusts your fps by trying to save power, it could be doing the wild fluctuations of fps between your 150 to max.

I have, when I installed both cards, it was on fresh Windows installs. The games run perfectly up to 180 fps, anything above that is awful, so I have to either cap it with software or turn VSync on.

Your best off capping with in game framerate setting or RTSS as using Vsync will add more input lag.

Is your monitor Gsync/Gsync compatible?

If it is, you should turn Vsync ON withinn NVCP and OFF in game.

Run HWMonitor and GPU-Z in the background, see what you can see..
I'm running a 3080FE and a 5800x and mines fine, few tweaks, no PBO on the CPU but the GPU is running 1900Mhz @887mV.
I would suggest sticking the GPU back to defaults and then seeing if you have any issues, could be a silicon lottery issue, not all GPU's are the same, but by having GPU-Z and HWMonitor you'll be able to keep an eye on the system, might be worth having a play with Heaven and Cinebench and see what they do.
