RTX 3080 Not Running Properly, worse than 5700 XT
If anyone has any ideas as to what the issue could be I'm going crazy...
So I have my RTX 3080 TUF OC I got a couple days ago, but something's not right. In many cases its performing the same or worse than my 5700 XT was. And my performance is way below all the numbers I see online. I've reseated and reconnected the GPU, DDU'd multiple times, checked and made sure I'm in dual channel (I was in Quad and removed 2 sticks to see if it was the issue, 0 difference), XMP is on at 3200mhz stable since forever, the card is correctly running at PCIe x16 lanes 3.0. DSR is off (I tried it with it on too). The odd thing is I do get 11,498 on Port Royal, which is a bit less than the average of 11,533 but still not off. Here are some numbers:
Assassin's Creed Odyessy 1440p Ultra: 30-80 FPS, 57 FPS average (Worse than 5700 XT by far)
Watchdogs Legion 1440p Ultra DLSS Quality ON: 29-70 FPS (47 Avg), DLSS OFF 29-66 FPS(46 Avg)
Death Stranding 1440p Ultra DLSS Quality ON: 101-115 FPS, DLSS OFF 101-114 FPS
Red Dead Redemption 1440p Ultra MSSA/FXAA OFF: 26-88 FPS (70 Avg)
Forza Horizon 4 1440p Ultra MSSA/FXAA OFF: 94 FPS Avg (Worse than 5700 XT)
Horizon Zero Dawn 1440p Ultra: 77-79 FPS Avg (Just like 3-4FPS more than my 5700 XT)
BFV 1440p Ultra + Raytracing performs right at 90-100FPS, but with Raytracing off it should be around 140-150...but instead its the exact same with RT on.
Warzone also has FPS issues but this has been recognized by Nvidia so I wont comment on that
My Threadripper 2920X is definitely not limiting it as I've seen up to i9-10900k's having the same issue, its not a TUF OC specific issue as there's a google docs with everyone who's having the issue is putting their specs and its all brands of 3080s. It's driving me crazy that it's performing horribly and in many cases the same or worse than the 5700 XT I replaced
