    Anyone tried the voltage curve on rtx 3080?

    I select 1.1v in the curve with the desired frequency and it shows in load 1.1v solid.
    But when I want to select a little higher than 1.1v it still shows 1.1v
    Basically every voltage higher than 1.1v it doesn't apply, and the frequency also.
    For example I select - 290 mhz to undervolt the whole curve, then I select 1.1v with 2070 MHz and it works flawlessly.
    If I select the same 2070 MHz but with higher voltage, the volt doesn't apply in load and the frequency is a lot lower than 2070 mhz.

    Using a 3080 aorus xtreme.

    If my understanding is correct the card lacks power limit?
    But if I run a test and look at gpuz it says relative voltage and voltage as the limit, and a little power with green. Orange and blue in gpuz.

    Someone can explain these to me pls?

    Voltage is hard-limited at that area, around 1.093v as was Turing and Pascal before it.

    On 1080 ti I could raise it at 1.2v

    By unofficial means, yes.

    I remember I used a xoc bios on 1080 ti.

    There is a custom bios for rtx 3080? Or my model, aorus xtreme?

    you can cross-flash using nvflash, since it is the same GPU model (3080), but performance may not be as expected since you are cross-flashing a bios built for one company's aftermarket PCB to a different company's aftermarket PCB.

    Have fun trying to cool that thing with the 1.1v unless your on water... The power draw on these 30 series cards is nuts at stock or +100% voltage target. I undervolt my MSI 3080 Suprim X to 0.950v @ 2010Mhz. Same boost clocks as stock but a lot lower voltage and power draw generally stays below 350W.

    No point going over 1.1 tbh, you'll run into power constraints and/or heat issues.

    I run 2070mhz @ .96v and I see high 300s already.

    I'm running at 1.1v with 2070 MHz and in games with fps cap at 75 I see 55-63 degrees.
