Help with 3080 Port Royal Scores (good sample?)

I've been tinkering a bit with my Aorus Xtreme 3080 since installing it 2 weeks ago. I did a thermal pad swap on it right away with a repaste. Now it mines with better VRAM junction temps, etc. so I thought I should overclock it and see what kind of silicon I pulled.

Ryzen 3800X (no OC, -0.1V offset)
MAG X570 Tomahawk
Aorus Xtreme 3080 Rev. 1

https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/63342871

It's running a custom VF curve with +600 MHz memory, closed case. Stock cooling other than the thermal pads. The curve is basically 2070 MHz at 1v, 2160 MHz at 1.1V.

Now it is pretty easy to tell between air and water cooled cards from the 3DMark scores page. There's usually a 10-30° temperature gap and a few hundred points at least (Port Royal). I may be wrong but I think this is a pretty decent score for someone who doesn't have much experience in OC'ing GPUs.

My question is, knowing my settings, what would you alter to get a higher score? Does RAM/CPU affect the scores? I'd like to get it above 12950 as the highest I've seen anywhere is 12931 on air-cooling.

Thanks for the help as always, this is a great forum.
 
Yes that’s a very good score, the fact your run in similar score section sits in the top set of results is a nice indicator and as you say only couple of marks off the highest air cooled runs you have found.

it would also be the highest 3080 run on forums with only 3090s listing higher currently: https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/t...eature-test-port-royal-bench-thread.18838895/

port royals score is pretty much all GPU being a heavy rt synthetic test. Having a really antiquated system will knock a few points but nothing significant with the way the score is weighed. Recall chap on here trying his run with a 10900k vs 2600k and gap was not massive. https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/posts/34195050/

some of those runs you think may be water may be with people doing runs in winter, side panel off, fans full whack etc. Can help reduce temps if trying to squeeze every last bit out, but as it stands yeah, your score is good.
