30xx Series Founders Edition

I need to do mine really. Runs below 70 degrees anyway though.

Running afterburner constantly puts me off, but i dont really know why.

I also do not like having anything running that does not need to. I just launch it before I start gaming. Just one click away :)

Just before I start a game I start afterburner and select the profile saved it's not really a big deal also do like the overlay as well to monitor stuff which I can toggle on and off while playing
 
I only use that pc for games, so i could just run it on boot i guess. What happens if AB crashes? Or doesnt start for some reason?

Maybe I'll have a go when/if i get time

Never had it crash on me I prefer to run system as lean as possible so never had it on start on bootup only start it if I was gonna start to play something

Don't see it having any issue having it to start on bootup as long the settings are stable

I have my 3080fe undervolted which gives slightly better performance over stock while benefiting with better temps and lower power usage

Obviously hugely late to the party but I have just got a founders 3060ti, straight swap for my 6700xt I had before with a member on here.

I really fancied seeing what Ray Tracing was all about for Minecraft etc. + A lot of reviews say the 3060 ti pulls away from the 6700xt at higher resolutions, I run 3440x1440

Really really impressed with it and the cooler is an absolute cracker....so quiet! And looks fantastic
Clocked up to 2000mhz core and 16ghz memory it still barely breaks a sweat and I can't hear it. Performance for what is a mid range card is very impressive too, especially the RT side coming from a RDNA2 card.

Someone will be along soon to tell you but it only has 8gb vram and that won’t be enough :p

3060ti is the best card from the 30 series. Ace cards for the money and the FE model is a thing of beauty. Enjoy
 
Yes the best card the 3060 Ti if you are on a budget and the best thing about it is the 256 bit bus. Which make me question what Nvidia trying to do here with its RTX 4000 range of cards from what i can see so far it is only 4080 16GB that has 256 bit bus and they want £1200 for that. with all the lower end cards having the bus cut down. Unless they bring out a cut down version not much point in upgrading.

This will do me just fine for a while now, looking to do a new build into a O11 mini start / mid of next year so will then look at what the prices for the 3080 / 3090 FE are after getting that all paid for and maybe upgrade to something like that, but would purely be a "nice to have" :)

I've got a 3060Ti FE and I'm wondering if it's worthwhile to under volt it? Temps seem ok (below) but I'm thinking more electricity savings!

I've got a basic Afterburner tune by having power at 100%. Cyberpunk at 1440p with most settings at max averages about 63°C which seems impressively low (I installed an extra 140cm fan right in front of the GPU pushing hot air out the back of the case - maybe that's helping?). My CPU averages about 63°C which is higher than any other game. Both Cyberpunk and VR gaming are almost maxing out the GPU load at high 90's.
