Observation about an overclocked GPU receiving reduced 3DMark ratings immediately after gaming sessions.
Alright so I have a zotac 2080 amp extreme and I Overclocked it. It is stable and everything. And if I start up and run 3Dmark I get 12400, 79fps on the first test 73fps on the second. But right when I load a game and play it and do the 3Dmark after I get a lower score and 76fps on the first test and 73fps on the second I legit have no idea what is going on here but after I get the lower score all I have to do is restart the pc and it’s back to normal
Are the cards water cooled? Temperature plays a big role, as these cards see significant performance jumps. A cooler run will result in higher boosts compared to a hotter one. Also, a Zotac 2080 amp extreme usually reaches around 12400 graphics points without stability in RTX games like control. Large performance swings can indicate instability. You might also encounter problems where fans drop from 3300 RPM to 2800RPM (fan 1 GPU-Z) due to excessive overclocking. Driver configurations influence the results, and the CPU can also impact performance if it has warmed up and no longer boosts effectively.
He would require full fan speed for 12400. For instance

The RTX and Tensor components are now stable. Memory usage varies across games, which affects frequency consistency.
It’s not water cooled, but my temperature never exceeds 63°C, and I’ve successfully passed all 3D stress tests they provide. There’s no throttling since my GPU and memory clocks remain close to their maximum during gameplay.
I understand that because I begin at 2100 then move down to 2070 to 2055 and remain there. It’s confusing when loading a game causes frame drops, yet everything looks unchanged and I only need to restart my PC for it to return to normal.
