List full pc specs. Including power supply etc. Oh and a 9600k is pretty weak to pair with a 3080 tbh.

its not a K. I never said K . 9600 period. it was the only thing in stock at the time.
its running at 4.2 all core,
750W power supply.
z390 arorus elite mobo.
16 gigs ram patriot 4133 c19 series ,running at 4000 XMP profile 2. system has never booted at 4133 XMP profile 1
samsung nvme


plenty of people are running 9600k and getting 15,000 scores. up until yesterday was running 2070 super.
upgrades happen one at a time.

hmm... after re-seating gpu and gonig to bed.
this morning scored 13K


3DMark Score
13049 (average users see 15K)
Graphics Score
16790 (average users see 19K)
CPU Score
5768 (average users see 7200)

Graphics Test 1
111.84 fps
Graphics Test 2
94.47 fps
CPU Test
19.38 fps

this is better. but not quite there.
the cpu score being that low might be limiting my fps in the GPU test is my theory now.

the clock speeds while running on the GPU do match normal clcok and boost for a 3080, so pretty sure the card is legit.

todays test
 
i notice it has hotspot temp of 60 at idle.
memory is 66 c at idle

should i do a re-paste? im not familiar with this card yet.
not sure if this is normal.
 
Problems right from Day 1? Can't you just send it back to get a refund? That'd be the simplest solution - and avoid a series of possible headaches - if FBM has the same policies as ebay does..? Because I've no idea if you're stuck with this thing or not.

I do not know where you got these from, but 3D Mark's Timespy averages for both of these are around 17700 and 5900 respectively, using the site's search mode.

Run through the usual troubleshooting steps:
1)Provide the make and model of the current power supply, and how long it's been in service. The upper end RTX 30 series gpus are picky about power supply quality.
Ex: Please don't post '750w psu'. 'Corsair RM750X' is more detailed; people viewing the thread can actually look the latter up, but not the former.

2)Use Display Driver Uninstaller to uninstall the current driver and then get the latest update through Nvidia's website, if you haven't done so already.

3)Monitor max gpu thermals under load. Gpu core, hot spot, and memory junction. Either HWINFO or Gpu-Z's sensor tab will show this. Both apps can also provide Reasons for Performance Limits - there's always at least one Reason.

4)Gpu-Z can also display the vbios version on its general tab - check that one too. TechPowerUp has a nice archive of vbios files. See if the current one is listed here: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios...&version=&interface=&memType=&memSize=&since=
Now, TPU requires users to voluntarily 'donate' their vbios to the collection via Gpu-Z's Validate function. So if you don't see the current vbios on their list, it doesn't necessarily mean it's not legit.

here is where i got the numbers. from 3dmark search. just like you..
SEARCH RESULTS
these search results match my numbers of 15K

also when clicking the link for my test results it shows "scores from similar systems" .
click this link
TEST RESULTS
click the ORANGE bar that says show result details.
read the chart. ALSO matches 15K

can you provide a link to "your search"?

not sure what you mean by problems from day 1.
FBM has no return policy. what planet are you from?

EVGA 750 GQ, 80+ Gold 750W

DDU done before bothering the forum

vbois 94.02.59.00.a2
the only vbios release for this model card from dell
 
You didn't buy from Facebook Marketplace. FBM is not a store.
You bought a used device from some dude, that happened to advertise it on Facebook.

What did the seller say when you asked him about the substandard performance?
obviously... how many dudes on the internet have "return policies"?
not sure what you are trying to prove

the seller is 5 hours away (600 km)
hes selling the card out of an ALIENWARE PC. he didnt know the difference between an 8x slot and a 16x slot.
hes obviously a moron and wont be any help even if i were in the same city still.
