LIVE: Overclocking RTX 3080 Custom Cards (ASUS, Gigabyte, EVGA) 

We are working on a stream recap!

TIMESTAMPS: (Q&A timestamps in separate reply (to long for YT post)) 1:50 - Model introduction 3:17 - short explanation its about live overclocking, not benchmarks) & Superchat 6:44 - Thermal Grizzly Sponsoring 8:30 - 1 mil subscriber T-shirt on Nexus store! 9:30 - driver install is running 10:15 - shows awesome mousemat (10% left) (59:44 5% left) 10:50 - Starts with the Asus TUF - Stock run 3D-Mark 12:00 - Starts Port Royal benchmark 15:25 - Asus TUF 11845 Graphics Score - Stock clocks, Port Royal 17:45 - Benchmark is running, GPU-Z readout 18:52 - Starts up EVGA-Precision X1 software & writes down Benchmark scores Note from 26:50 :You can also use MSI afterburner, end-user choice/preference here. 19:15 - what to do with Powertarget 20:24- Increase powertarget & Run 2nd Benchmark 21:22 Analyzes 2nd benchmark - realtime stats 23:22 Runs full-screen full-pass benchmark on maximum powertarget 26:50 Asus TUF 11916 Graphics score - Maximum powertarget only, Port Royal 27:42 EVGA-Precision X1 - starts with 60Mhz offset & increases fan speeds 28:35 starts Time SPy X-treme stress test. - Actual manual Overclocking starts 30:15 Increases to 80mhz while running stress-test 33:48 Benchmark seems to have crashed - runs Port royal to see if its stable in P.r. 34:00 Question can you explain the 1% lows on FE overclocks? 37:00 Runs 4th Benchmark 39:31 Question: what is the upside of overclocking compared to overboost? 39:53 Asus TUF 11914 Graphics score Adjusts X1 precision values - leaves core at +90, maybe down to +80. Powertarget @110% Continues with Memory increase first now. 41:00 shows & talks about the different coolers of the 3rd party RTX3080s on his table :3 42:00 shows the "red lipstick" on the EVGA card and mentions EVGA might supply free replacements in Black and silver! (for buyers & JayzTwocents, you might like this info ). @ 1:45:50 EVGA has replied on the red-lining and Steve gives us more info/update! 44:28 Offsets Memory Clock +600 (=10102mhz) (to make it crash and step it down) 45:04 Offsets Memory Clock to +700 and directly crashes; Decreases to 600 to if its stable for 1-2 minutes 46:14 Benchmark passes with +600mhz (10102mhz) on memory (1990-2025MHZ Core) 46:42 Card is powerlimited (@110%) for higher performance, Steve mentions Shuntresistormod with liquid metal to do that (and shows his own first shuntmod on a RTX Titan) 47:43 Runs Port Royal again to see if its stable. 50:23 Steve talks about the importance of Memory bandwith (GDDR6Xover current VRAM capacity 50:38 OC Benchmark result 3.8% increase: ASUS TUF 12294 Graphics Score (+600mhz memory +90 Core, 110% power (maximum) OC) 52:30 Brings down Core-Clock to +80 to see if it performs better 53:20 Q: at 3-4% increase is it worth to OC? 53:30 Steve suggests to hunt down a custom V-bios for more gains in OC if you're into it. 54:00 Chat & Superchat comments 55:25 Benchmark at lowered OC +80 Core +600mem 110%power (max) Complete Benchmark valued decreased/decayed Score: 11986 55:53 Shuts down and switches to EVGA FTW CARD _______ 1H Mark _______ EVGA FTW 1:00:24 New Driver install & Chat comments - Superchat Q&A 1:03:00 Runs Baseline Benchmark of EVGA FTW - Stock 1:03:38 Shows a LN2-Pot/cooler, adapter plate & short how-to use & usage for the coming weekend. 1:05:10 Steve does a brief non-functional LN2-Demo to show whats coming this weekend 1:07:20 LTT Waterbottle on display - Steve meets his quota for Linus ;) 1:08:13 EVGA FTW 12140 Graphics score - Stock / Baseline - Benchmark results 1:09:10 Steve discusses the Benchmark Results of EVGA FTW (2.5% over Asus TUF) 1:11:29 Runs 3D-Mark Port Royal windowed with GPU-Z for value-read out and EVGA X1 Precision software (All stock values still) Runs in baseline at 2010-2025mhz Core & 1187 Memory Mhz 1:14:55 Opens Precision X1, Runs benchmark with "205" (i think 105% Power usage) 1:16:16 Mutes line for EVGA call 1:17:25 Unmutes the line of EVGA and asks for the power limit on the FTW3 Review bios. 1:17:55 EVGA - Jacob on speaker for everyone about the power-limit 1:19:00 Precision X1 Increase Core Clock +60 and back to +0 on :05; Benchmark runs at 0 offset but with max power limit (% of power usage is actually higher than displayed due to Reviewers-Bios with higher Base-line; See EVGA call time-stamp ) 1:19:05 Steve explains about Base-lines, Power-usage and offsets, informative to us, viewers 1:20:30 Steve sets Core Clock +40 with max Power-LImit (personal note: this is actually a higher overclock due to higher baseline on EVGA). 1:21:27 Runs 3rd benchmark on EVGA FTW3 & does more Q&A 1:22:13 Steve starts telling in Q&A how he started on Hardware & Computers incl GN start.. 1:22:50 opens GPU-Z during benchmark & Q-A 1:24:29 Stable Benchmark & Results on the +30< Clock Overclock 1:24:40 Memory Tuning of the EVGA FTW3 (+0?) but runs stress-test 1:25:53 Memory tuning of the EVGA during stress test Increase to +500mhz & increase fan speed 1:26:06 Nice video shot of the EVGA FTW3 (taking off on fan-increase ;) ) 1:27:27 EVGA FTW3 is power limited, drawing 393-400W (though 3x 8Pin) 1:27:28 Increase Memory to +600Mhz offset (from base-line) 1:28:00 Comments & Store 1:31:18 Benching Memory at +600Mhz failed, Reruns at +550Mhz overclock 1:32:42 Benching Memory at +550Mhz Crashed; back to +500Mhz No, try +620, lucky draw 1:37:44 Benching Memory at +620 was not stable back to +500mhz 1:38:00 Runs full Port Royal Benchmark at +500Mhz and +30 Clock (from baseline) max powerdraw allowed 1:40:58 EVGA FTW3 - 12383 Graphics Score @ +500mhz +30 baseclock, Max powerdraw (highest so far) +0,7% compared to ASUS 1:42:27 Mid Stream summary after running ASUS TUF & EVGA FTW3 stock & OC benchmarks 1:44:23 EVGA FTW3 - 12435 Graphics score Port Royal @+500mhz +40 baseclock 1:44:50 Rerun benchmark at +500mhz +50 baseclock (wasnt stable in stress-test though) 1:45:50 Steve discusses EVGA has addressed the Community complains about the red accents and has a solution for its customers for the "nicknamed: batman / Lipstick effect") 1:45:33 Shows all 3 cards again on Aesthetics reply to question 1:48:25 EVGA FTW3 - 12460 Graphics score Port Royal @+500mhz +50 Core & max Powerdraw 1:49:23 Benching with +60 Core memory +500mhz & max powerdraw for Port-Royal (port royal runs better/more stable then time-spy extreme) 1:50:40 ;) Steve lights a torch.. to show there is still enough oxygen (LN2 oxygen lvl answer) 1:52:15 Bench Failed 1:53:36 Concludes EVGA benching +50 Core +500mhz (12460 was highest attainable with power-draw allowance). _______ 1:59:07 GIGABYTE EAGLE RTX3080 (DDU & drivers) 2:01:57 Steve shows a Liquid metal shunt mod on a 2080TI 2:04:53 Opens Port Royal for a Baseline Benchmark 2:07:39 Gigabyte EAGLE Graphics Score 11777 - Port Royal - Baseline / Stock 2:08:12 RECAP so far 2:09:07 GIGABYTE EAGLE 2nd run in windowed mode with GPU-Z on side for read-out 2:09:20 Check out the awesome T-Shirts and limited editions 1-Mil subs on GN-Store!

more people bought merch from the Gamers Nexus store today then actually were able to buy 3080s

Most important timestamps: 23:52 1:10:25 1:51:50 2:35:16 3:14:10

RTX 3080 Custom Cards - Base score - OC score - details; an offset is an offset, not absolute. Asus TUF Gaming - 11845 - 12294 -- 90MHz core offset - 600 MHz memory offset EVGA FTW3 - 12140 - 12460 -- 50MHz core - 500MHz mem Gigabyte Eagle - 11777 - 12250 -- 100MHz core - 900MHz mem ... guess which one is going to take a cold bath this weekend.

You've earned my subscription at the very least, holy crap you are a hard worker. I spent a lot of time in the IT trenches pulling all-nighters fixing stuff that had no business being fixed just to help customers out. You seem to care about your work and are passionate about doing it right. Bravo!

Thanks for the case recommendation. I ended up going with the Lian Li O11 XL. I want to work toward full open loop liquid cooling and it will be a great option for that when I am ready, and still great for my closed loop setup now I think.

Congrats Steve for receiving most of the 3080s that Nvidia actually made so far. Looking forward to the full reviews!

Congrats on the 1M mark! I love your channel and you're my go to for any kind of technical reviews.

For those looking for results summary is at 2:53:42

It's amazing how this is perpetually live!

More 3080s in this one room than nvidia released in the US

Great stream GN, cool to see this kind of content about new products

Pretty new here. Had no idea you were in NC. That's awesome and I really appreciate the level of detail you provide. This video alone will allow me to make a better purchasing decision. Plan on waiting to see what the new AMD Ryzen line looks like and maybe big navi can compete.

Steve mentioned a guy's GTX 460 and I remembered my 560 Ti. Beast still does 1GHz on the stock cooler

I'm surprised the bots didn't take this stream too

@23:54 When the PRV of the LN2 tank blows off like a 2JZ! Heh, not a flinch, just the uuuugh head turn! Nice shot!

FYI GN team: RU-vids autoplay brings me back to this video AFTER EVERY GN VIDEO I WATCH. So if your stats for this video show like a million people watching for a few seconds and then leaving that is likely why. I've watched it through at least twice.

EVGA customer support so good that their engineers will call you mid-overclock to give you advice.

3 in one shampoo would sell the heck out, also a energy drink called thermal taste would kick ass

1:08:08 When you said "I don't know what to do with this liquid nitrogen now.." it reminded me of your stream when someone asked, "Can you drink it?" And you said, "Once!" lol

I missed this LIVE but watching it now!

more 3080's on that one table than in my whole country :/ Table 3/0 Slovakia

Nvidia confirms that from their next launch no GPU would be sent to gamers nexus.

38:10 "I guess I got stuck with this Ferrari, eh". Especially funny if you consider the Ferrari F1 Team's situation in 2020 xD

Six years ago Gamer’s Nexus, helped me out when I was building my first PC. Now I’ve been glued to this channel again since I’m upgrading soon. Thanks for all the work you guys are (and will be) putting in during this launch cycle.

the camera man literally every 2 seconds enhance... enhance.... MORE! ENHANCE!

Probably not going to get it until fall of next year

I'm 60% sure the tanks I've seen have a small switch on one of the pipes that can be turned 90 degrees to the pipe or in line with the pipe to control a valve. in one setting the tank will climb to that ~220psi threshold and then make the loud off-gassing noise. in the other setting the tank slowly releases pressure instead (out of the pipe with this small switch; closing the valve leaves that pressure to build for the 230psi blowoff valve)

lol yep... the liquid nitrogen tank scared the hell out of me too. I have headphones on and turned up pretty loud, I thought something happened to the card, haha...

"ordered"/"preordered" the aorus xtreme. I will probably have to wait a for a while to get it

Totally commend you on your dedication in doing all the work you do. Unfortunately what people don't see is the many hours outside of the streamed content that you would be putting into what you do , I personally love watching your streams and I was impressed with the dedication, time and effort you put into the Newegg drama.. well done and I totally agree with you that if Amazon has a decent competitor they will keep each other honest hopefully... Here in Australia Amazon is way too expensive and I can get gear a lot cheaper from Umart and a local store Computer Alliance that usually have some great deals with a coupon 10% discount and free shipping which also includes any other items you purchased at the time.

That shop is so freaking beautiful

Man I wanted to get one today....Back to picking sites for supply like 1080...Christ those things are THICK! I also swear in checking within seconds Nvidia site sold out within refresh of my computer loading. I was prob lucky to even see it happen.

Recap 2:53:40

I have fallen asleep watching various random RU-vid and woke up to this video playing in the background at LEAST 45 times

Awww man missed this cos sleep and work lol will catch up on this full thing

So this is where all the 3080's went.

Does anyone have any timestamps?

very cool channel, glad i found you!

Great video in depth about RTX 3080 video card.

3080 instantly unobtainium ...didn't really expect anything else...card prices are rising at genuine e-tailers already and on eBay for £1000++ ... Don't buy the cards from eBay you're just feeding the sharks... maybe we now have to wait for rtx4080 to upgrade our Pascal cards ......or big navi (if the drivers work)...AHH well life goes on.

Actually amazon has never stocked 3080s Im sure about that

Should one wait a year or so for the entry level GTX cards for this series or buy cards like 1650 super or 1660 if one gets good discounts?

Can you say more about the lower memory speeds on the FTW3 you were seeing? Also were you using an ultra or regular (I ask because theoretically there could be a difference in the quality of materials used).

NNN pre failed due to know knowing I won’t have a 3080 till next year due to car payment.

My local computer store received 1 rtx 3080 for launch.....1. Wtf

Jesus, I love this channel! We are so lucky to have this entire community; everyone is absolutely brilliant.

so much enthusiasm in steve's face in the thumbnail

Came here to see how does one overclock a unicorn…?

$1200-5000 on ebay. LMFAO. No thank you. Ill grab one next year

1 million subs ! congratulations.... I brought the polygon Tshirt, and get noticed by geeks all the time ... Thx

50:55 Viewers were wondering why this baseline overclock was only 3.8%. GPU Boost 3.0 already boosts clock speed from 1700 to 1900mhz, so of course overclocking will only deliver small results.

So when you start having a high pitched laugh it will be because of the nitrogen leak from the tank at the back?

@1:52:00 - Everything's normal. Nothing to see here. lol

So I've been wondering why I've seen several ads for Gamer Storm coolers and a couple preview videos as well as the factory tour of them being made, but have yet to see a full thermal review on it. The old ads I believe have only been for the Captain Pro from a year or so ago and they currently have a the Pro V2 out as well as new versions of the Castle line. They look great but I've only found a few somewhat informative videos on them. Results on the older versions seem to be somewhat conflicting in results. Would love a more comprehensive look at where they fit, in a GN Coolers list.

can you do a tear down of the custom cards id like to see the different pcb layouts

I swear AIB partners should hire designers for their cards. Honestly most of them looks terribad. The Strix actually looks the best, and I still don't like how it looks.

That's why we can't buy 3080 cards, steve has all of them :o

3:19:00 I think he was talking about bots buying up anything that wasn't in a brick and mortar store and those stores only carrying partner cards and a very very limited number of them.

It is 350 PSI relief valve and yes it will scare the bejesus out of you when it goes off. I used to fill them at Airgas 25 years ago in my mid 20's.

bro steve is so hot

The Ampere cards look like AMD made them in the GCN era: Lots of computing performance but not utilized fully, out of the box maxed out as far as they go, pushed the performance as high as they can even with increased power consumption, almost zero OC potential. Meanwhile AMD is removing the unnecessary things from their gaming cards anf going with a more lightweight architecture. The two companies kinda swapped their approach. I'm more and more interested in big Navi, because NV seemed to push their cards to the absolute limit even sacrificing power consumption to get the last few % performance off for some reason...and i think that reason is they know Navi will be good. Ampere is NV's GCN, and Navi can be AMD's Maxwell. TBH i think people rushing to get a 3080 day 1 are stupid. It is on my shopping list but i will wait for Navi because the more we see from Ampere the more it gets obvious something is brewing on the GPU market.

More respect for Steve in that he didn't take any college courses.

Started my step up to the ftw3 3080 today. Curious to see how long it takes :)

I could use one of those 3080s, just started building my new PC so my wife and I can finally play games together after 2 years of waiting. Looks like I'm waiting another 3 months at least. All my other PC components sitting in a corner collecting dust. Freaking NVIDIA/Ebay/Scalpers. Such BS.

F the mod that timed me out. Lol

I originally had purchased the TUF OC 3090. Ive since changed my order and gone for the STRIX OC due to the power circuitry. 3x8pin vs 2. Looking for the best version of the card... I was certain the TUF was the card to buy originally.

I had to step out a few times in between is there a time stamp? I know a recap is coming but Id like to skim thru this.

Sometimes the lack of rational (or any critical) thinking REALLY boggles my mind. Even in this audience which I would have assumed were more clued up than that... To say it's in "poor taste" to review a card you couldn't get is like saying it's in poor taste to review a Mclaren P1 because most people can't afford to buy one. The review will always be relevant so when people CAN get the cards, the review will be very useful. Now you might ask "Why not just wait until everyone can get one before you do these things?" There are 2 reasons. 1. Attention span of the audience - If you wait, by the time you make the content, something newer might have come out and you'll get people talking about "Old news" and "Nobody cares" or "Where is my Big Navi content!?". You can't have it both ways, being upset just because you can't have something is very petulant. 2. Competition - If you wait, your competitors will not wait (other tech reviewers, might not be explicit competition but they all occupy the same space) and you WILL lose out on business which when avoidable is crazy to do. Most people will obviously understand this but the same sentiments keep cropping up with these cards and the PS5 and it's just so asinine. Scalping idiots will always exist, blame the manufacturers for not making it harder to scalp, not the reviewers for doing their jobs.

Who cares how they overclock when you can't get them

Lol at the thud that massive Gigabyte card made when he stood it on end at the beginning of the video. T-Rex from Jurassic park 😂

Yes we can hear you Steve

Not much point in overclocking video's when Nvidia stages a big launch and has less than 1000 cards available!

First?

The best way to spend Thursday night... watch Steve run benchmarks on the 3080 😂

I was watching/fell asleep to a video about drones and woke up to this?

Can i have one of the 3080s I will give you $700 for it

Stumbled back across this ten months later. The stock for the 30-series is still a meme lmao

2:14:18 look at how happy he is that people are talking to him. He's adorable I swear

Props to the camera man, he stood there for 3 hours!!

Nice 1300+ buck radiator stand you have there! :) Btw Steve you're scrumptious with or without the 3080 overclock Bonking! ;D haha

Good work. I picked up the oc version of the giga board and it’s very solid build!

Send one of those to England to that mad lad who loves attaching caps everywhere.

Have the the EVGA 2080TI FTW3 ULTRA & planning to get the 3080 FTW3. Personally like both design

23:56 hitting pressure tank with a hammer :D

Hi Steve! I plan on getting a 3080 that has a 3x8 pin config . Thing is I'm using Corsair's individually sleeved cables and I currently have 2 of my single PCI-E cables and plan to use for the 3rd 8pin socket my PCI-E Cable that has the splitter. Since they're individually sleeved, does it matter which of the 2 8-pin plugs I use? Thanks.

The Port Royal record is 13488 held by a 3080 running at 2350Mhz.

that motherboard slots in to a graphic card cool!

there is NOTHING i want to watch more than this video. ever.

Those monitors are lit! literally!

for the 3x8 PCI-E pin 3080 models, can one simply use one strand from a second dual 8 pin PCI-E cable leaving the the other strand unconnected ?

"A good way to check is fire..." Me: "Oh, which brand is that?" **blowtorch noises** Me: "Ah..."

I feel like Steve and Linus are competing to see who can make the longest videos lol

Steve, have you ever had the locks sucked into a triple fan running at 100% before{or any}?

Thanks!

2:41:03 Wow you can get all that info from plain ol' TASK MANAGER now? Thanks, THATS worth knowing (and taking the extra hour for) (Shows how long since I'VE had a decent GPU - most of mine were (+are) pulls from ol' office chuck-outs --- thankfully theres finally some movement in the price wars :)
