Hey guys,

so I was trying to tweak my MSI GTX 1080 Gaming X little bit.
However, the unigine heaven benchmark keeps shutting down in middle of benchmark (which means the clocks are unstable right?)
But the thing is that the clocks aren't even that high, and I man not seeing any artifacts etc.

Here is the log of afterburner, and I am not sure if there are any problematic values since I am quiete new to this.

Afterburner Log
The first GPU usage drop the benchmark freezes, and on the last drop it just stoped

So I am not sure whether the clock are too high or if there is any other problem like drive, PSU or RAM

Hardware:
Motherboard: MSI Z390 Tomahawk
CPU: i5-9600k
GPU: MSI GTX 1080 Gaming X
PSU: EVGA Supernova 650Gold
RAM: HyperX Predator 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 2666
Disks: WD Black NVMe SSD, M.2 - 250GB
Samsung SSD 860 EVO, 2,5" - 1TB
Western Digital 3,5 HDD 1 TB

Thanks for any advice
 
Well first, did you run the benchmark at stock speeds to make sure it is the GPU that is the problem?

2nd, there is no such thing as "clocks don't seem that high" when overclocking. Sillicon lottery doesn't care what clocks the GPU can run at. Heck there are GPUs that can't even overclock 20mhz.
