Hi All 👋🏻,
I have an Asus Dual RTX 3060 OC V2. The card was hitting 90°C at 100% power due to bad thermal paste. I was throttling the card to run at 90% power and hitting 81°C for 5 months. (Score 4880). (160W) Performance sucked.
Then now I took a huge risk and repasted the card with Arctic MX6 likely voiding the warrenty (1yr left/ 3yr).(India)
Good news is, after repasting, the card is now hitting 71°C at 100% power. (170W)
(Score 5067).
Software : Asus GPU tweak 3 with OC Scan VFTuner profile.
Benchmark: Unigine Superposition - 1080p Extreme
Benchmarks aside, I can't maintain 60fps on 1080p ultra on newer games. CPU was not limiting in the game. (Ghost of Tsushima, Banishers)
My question is, there is an option to run the card at 110% power in slider.
The card runs a little better at 180W - 185W at 75°C peak. (Score 5116).
Since the card has "OC" in its name. Can I daily the card at 110% power and not damage the card since it's below 80°C ?.
If the card dies, I won't be able to RMA the card since it's likely voided. And I don't want to kill the card for 5 to 7 fps.(Haven't tested other than benchmarking, scared of killing the card).
I would really like some inputs regarding this. Thanks.
