It looks like it is not boosting ....

I don't know, I actually find nowhere that a 2080ti should/could draw 366W.
https://folding.lar.systems/folding_dat ... _a_m_13448 265W
https://www.techpowerup.com/review/asus ... oc/31.html 299W top
https://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/a ... iew,7.html 275W

There's only this:

360 but only during <50 ms

EDIT: I raised the power limit manually. I now have:

I guess that your card is just tweaked.

The (my) AORUS GeForce RTX™ 2080 Ti XTREME WATERFORCE 11G can do this.

One model can, the TU102-300A-K1-A1, with binned chips: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/g ... e-wb.b6363
Congratulations! :D

I'll see what I can do when mine is under water. :egeek:

I was about to say, a max power limit of 260W on a 2080Ti?
Mine goes to 299W. I never put them that high though...

The Cuda enabled work puts my 2090tis right at the power limit. OpenCL was more likely to be around 80%.
I foresee alot of people finding unstable overclocked and power supplies with these high performance work units.

Only if CUDA and OpenCL WUs are mixed. If you only get CUDA WUs, you could OC for it.
Also, always cap the power on GPUs.

My 1070s never go much above 25C over ambient but that's what water-cooling will get you.
I’m running Ubuntu 18.04 (can’t get things to work under anything later) and I seem to have limited control of things (or I’m just too ignorant). I think I could maybe force power consumption to 125W a card rather than the roughly 150W each they’re currently using. Maybe I can use the nvidia-smi command on a Linux terminal if that’s working (haven’t tried recently) to try to tweak some settings. The cards aren’t supposed to throttle until 90C and if neither goes over 82C, maybe I shouldn’t worry. Ambient is typically 25C.
I am running an Ubuntu variant, Pop!_OS. To enable fan speed control in Nvidia X Server Settings, I added the line

Code: Select all

needs_root_rights=yes
as the next-to-last line of Xwrapper.config. Restart the computer and set the fan speed manually. My Titan X runs at 65 to 70C with fan speed set at 85%.

You should try Pop!_OS. The Nvidia driver 525.85.05 is available in the Pop!_Shop but it will force you to install version 515.65.01 first. I am running Folding@home version 8.1.11 beta (recommended).
