Where you been bro, I posted pictures in both in this thread and in the 10gb is not enough thread ;)

Basically I managed to get an FE on Friday and had it delivered the next day. Did not even pay extra for Saturday delivery :)

Hey there, just doing that right now, I'm at 800 on the memory and 75 on the core with power limit up full.
Fans on full, they are really quiet, getting some, okay to small gains.
Let me know if you plan to flash the bios for a higher power limit and I'll be brave with you

Ok cheers, no plan to flash bios, I waited too long to brick the bloody thing.
 
I've got my RTX 3080 FE recently, too. Initial 3DMark test at all default settings was hilarious and suggested I'm faster than 98% of all others, probably because not enough people have been able to get these beauties due to supply problems. Results on https://www.3dmark.com/fs/23889288

The FE card is beautiful, and it's staggeringly quiet. Even when running Furmark torture tests in power virus mode, it remains whisper quiet. I mean the fan is genuinely barely inaudible even when the card is under full load for several minutes. This is a huge shock since my old EVGA 2080 Ti would sound like a vacuum cleaner when under prolonged periods of 100% load. NVIDIA has implemented something magical here with their blow-through cooling solution. It's just a shame the supply situation blows so not many enthusiasts will get to enjoy these.
 
Folks, in afterburner, my Trio X is only able to go up to 102% on power. Any idea how to get this higher or is this locked to a max level based on bios?
Also anyway to alter the core voltage in msi since its greyed out?

FE goes to 115%.

Enjoy the card @Illuminist I know you've been hankering for a while!!

I run an almost 1:1 fan profile on my FE @TNA and find it a good mix of cooling and noise (or lack thereof!)

The % is relative to the starting point so a higher number isn't always better. For example:

300W + 15% = 345W
340W + 2% = 346.8W

You need to know what the cards base power limit is for the % to have any meaning. Not all cards have the same base power limit, those with smaller %'s typically have higher base limits and they all get to about the same number without an unlocked BIOS.

Ok thanks, that kinda slipped my mind that the AiB's use more juice at base.
