Yeah that's acceptable. You can set the core voltage to 100% but it doesn't actually alter the voltage since Pascal locks it in. From what I know, it offers a steadier voltage when the GPU slows down, like in Witcher 3 when you open your inventory—framerate spikes and GPU usage drops, which often causes crashes on overclocked systems in that game. However, if you set the voltage to 100%, it won't drop when entering menus, helping maintain stability.

You might be able to push the core voltage a bit higher for 1080s models, starting around 2075-2100 MHz, and possibly increase memory overclocking as well, though I'm not very experienced with that.

I haven't discovered much space on the 1080 memory, at least not with full stability. Most people seem to have reached their limits for testing benchmarks and playing games. I believe I reached around 10388.
