While running MSI Afterburner, observe the power percentage chart after the session.
It should reflect the target power level.
Your GPU performs at its maximum capacity during intense scenes and may drop when less demanding content is played.
If it struggles to sustain the set power limit, your CPU is likely restricting performance.
When temperatures exceed the safe range, the GPU will reduce output. Monitor the GPU temperature graph for further insights.
The maximum power limit on the card is 130%. The EVGA 2080 ti XC operates at 130% with temperatures ranging from 83 to 84°C. The EVGA 2080 ti FTW3 has a 124% limit, and temperatures stay between 69 and 71°C. Running at 105% could cause performance issues or force the system to stick to 100%. A temperature of 63°C is acceptable on water, but it indicates underperformance when using air. If you obtained the card early, a BIOS update might be necessary.
