![]() ![]() Mining with my same 65%power, -200 core, +800 memory settings I was sitting at 68 degrees!!! Fired up my mining software and instant change. I opted for the 2mm Iceberg Thermal DRIFTIce from Amazon rated 13W/mK. Removing the old VRAM pads I was filled with hope as they were very oily and degraded. Anything over 65% power seemed to throttle.Įverything changed when the 2mm pads finally got here. This boosted my MH/s to around 84-85 but I was still getting throttling with 65%power, -200 core, +800 memory. The backplate was now getting hot so I could tell heat was transferring. I put them in opposite the ram and did notice an improvement. The only 3mm I could find were rated 6W/m.k. 2mm got delayed in shipping so I decided to first do just the backplate which 3mm seems to fit well. I tried to manage it with underclocks and fans but was getting a Hash around 80 MH/s, sometimes dipping into 70s. I have a 3080 Eagle and my VRAM temps were throttling 108-110 constantly while mining. Hi! I have an eagle Oc 3080 from Gigabyte, and I just bought the exact same pads and thermal paste, do you have any photo or video of the process and where you placed the thermal pads? Any help would be appreciated. Seems like the thermal pads and paste Gigabyte used are really really bad. Now with the pads cooling the memory it seems to have gone and I get a consistent 20ms (ish) frametime with few spikes. I can't say for sure if its related but before I added the pads my frame times would spike, creating barely noticeable stutters but measurable in afterburner. The card no longer thermally throttles when mining (before it wouldnt even last 60 seconds before it completely throttled and was unusable), runs much cooler on the core and in games such as BFV I've even noticed improvements to stability. I used a GELID 80x40X3mm pad on the backplate and a GELID 80X40X2mm pad on the front and kryonaut paste and have seen massive improvement to thermals (5-10c core) and stability of the card. I have a Gigabyte Vision OC which is basically identical to the Gaming and Eagle and had the same issues. ![]()
