RTX 3080 frequent random shutdowns across most titles plus additional problems
Vrel indicates Voltage Regulation and confirms it's operating at the current safe voltage level, not increasing it further. This helps prevent issues like GPU overheating or power limits that could reduce performance and cause stutter. Please share a screenshot of the GPU-Z Sensors page if you'd like to explore more details. Clarification: The VRel reading is normal for a functioning GPU.
Ignore the peak at the end of the chart—it was just the match finishing and I clicked to capture the image. The game I was using was Halo Infinite at full capacity with unlimited frames per second. By the way, the fan speed stayed very high since I chose a tough fan curve. It's interesting that the memory usage remains so high even then... Updated: while running the campaign in Halo Infinite, perfcap switched from "VRel" to VRel with an increased overclock setting.
Based on what I observe, everything seems to be functioning correctly. I recently played Halo Infinite after downloading it and experienced a couple of stutters during the game. The sensor data suggests the GPU isn't the problem since it was the only upgrade made. My main suspicion now leans toward a software or driver issue. Would you notice similar stutters when playing at lower settings?
The v-core needs adjustment to match the desired boost frequency—around 1.0820v works best. The 1920mhz setting exceeds the card’s factory limit, which should cap at 1830mhz even at that frequency. Open the Nvidia control panel, choose Ultimate performance, and test if it improves results.
It's currently configured for optimal performance, but I'll revert it to the standard setting to test the outcome.
Verify your winders power plans as well; something seems amiss. It’s likely a simple issue. You might want to check for a new BIOS update and flash the card as well. This could assist. Also, visit TechPowerUpForums and begin a thread if you require further assistance.
