Hello. I have recently purchased ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Trinity OC. From my previous build, I have RMx White Series™ RM850x — 850 Watt 80 PLUS® Gold Certified Fully Modular PSU. I have tried plugging in the 2x 6+2 PCIe cables or 4x 6 PCIe cables through the provided adapter but in Afterburner using OC scanner it gives an error saying there is power limitation, also user benchmark gives the result of 28th percentile (below expectations). Also, when I'm running GPU demanding games at the highest settings the afterburner detects "power lim" when it gets to 310W, although the specified power consumption is 350W. I tried to increase power consumption to 110% in the afterburner. I have also tried to use all the different PSU slots for the PCIe cables.
Can anyone suggest any additional troubleshooting I should do? Is it possible that the GPU is just defective? Please help.
