so..
a little for fun but am seriously to .. -

yes nothing has being wrong so far ,- all good , running smoothly , despite fps sometimes is low , but we also know games often is really poorly optimized .. no matter your hardware ..-
- and for my sake , 9 out of 10 the game , game play is butter smooth , despite lower fps .- , thats fine for me .. though i know some freaks over it , granted at times a game, should perform better" still.. butter smooth gameplay ..
--
i was just wondering and always have.. . if there might be a slight bottle neck somewhere?
or something holding , my pc power /performance back .. ?

a slight setting in bios , a voltage setting somewhere .. a 5 % increases here or something like that
--
and no ,i haven't never overclocked or anything ever - ... until yesterday , with NVidia app auto thing , as a safe starter ..then i might do a little bit afterburner MSI " from guides, - recommendations . "
---
and regarding 3Dmark on steam .- not the 1 and only benchmark .. i gonna test others .. but taking that as an example .-

i heard that, with a card like this , and good cpu ,- you should get a good score above 10,000 on 4k ? .. if i was wrong ,, and they all tested on 1080 or some .? .. "wow " okay.. -
as i do using 4k currently , a tv now -. real monitor later ..
before that i used ,ultra wide .--
.....
so.. that said ..- why do i only get like 8200 in score ?..-'
.. thats my puzzling .. - i dont really care .. but i am curios .. wondering

.- also just outside that .. if there is something in my system i can improve a bit , before i might jump to ddr5 and new motherboard in a few years , along with 5080 super or 6080 by then heh -.
though meanwhile, upgrading my ram to 64 or 128 gb is tempting .-
p.s ..
if you sitting with a 3080 to, and have it in safe overclocking and getting 10-50 % more boots, i open to hear what settings ?
https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N3080AORUS-X-10GD-rev-10
-- i assume there isent any other version .,-
like , oh 1,0 came out 8 years ago .. but last year , a 2,0 Edtion came out " .. for the one i have, is from 2016-2018 or some ..
----
My pc info ..
mother board - Z490 Aorus master

CPU - intel core I9 10850k

ram - i belive its these -

G.Skill Trident Z 32 GB (4 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 .​


and gaming from a

Samsung 980 Pro 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 while Windows is on a SSD -​

power should be

Corsair RM1000x 1000 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply​

--
all in cosmos 2 super tower case " build like tank -


- excuse the text got a bit odd , but spelling - should be fine , despite no grammar..
..but should be the info needed ? .. otherwise ask -

Might want to mention the titles you've taxed your system with.

Let's start with your current system specs. Please list them like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

Your PCPartPicker listing shows you having an RTX 5070 Ti, yet you stated an RTX 3080 in your thread title. If you're trying to confuse us, you're not going to gain much support from the community.

Again, what BIOS version are you on and how old is your PSU?

If you haven't sorted out your drivers after a GPU swap, use DDU to remove all GPU drivers(Intel, AMD and Nvidia) in Safe Mode then manually install the latest GPU driver sourced from Nvidia's support site in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator.

um. sorry ? you was a bit quick on the pull, in terms of responds - " thats awesome, thanks : ) - apricate it -
.. but then dont point fingers at me , course i put in a wrong link - before i could correct it - a second later, you responded ..-

not here to confuse .. i want all my info correct .- being polite in asking help , despite my grammar is " tricky "
..
my psu .-. dont know how old exactly .- i was just typing in the info .. then i was gonna check up on it ... so give me a moment and let me look around ..
same with bios -

um okay `? , that sounds right .. but ..- i only ever had Nvidia ..
my old card before this one , was a 1080 i belive .. - so not needed ?

bios version / date - American megatrends inc. F3 25/03/2020 - read from system information window .-

psu age .. ,- bought it - 10-03 2016 .. should be the same i using now -

if someone ends up here , have read trough it " thanks , appricate it .-

what could i do to improve my 3Dmark score .. ?
why is my score low ? .. unless its normal ..
4k is what i using now , on a tv .. though by the end of the year , a proper monitor instead - ,but target is 4k maxed out

is there a problem i dont see in my system ? .. - bottle neck ?

and recommendation for 3080 overclocking? . just a bit no extreme needed
more so , if you sitting with the same ,-
"i will look at videos and small guides meanwhile "

and i think thats about it , in vary short summery : ) .-

p.s upgrading to 64 or 128 ram , might come by end of year as well.-
and then , when ever 5080 super comes out or 6080 ,- i properly try get that .-

at best , in for a few years .. ddr5 but thats not really the questing or goal here _
