Title: RTX 3070 Gaming Gigabyte issue
Post by: YakETy on April 18, 2021, 08:28:53 PM
Hi,

I have a strange issue with my gigabyte RTX 3070 Gaming OC.

Sometimes the miners don't detect power usage but the hashrate is fine. When it detects hashrate, Powerlimit doen't have any impact : lowering to 35% or keeping 100% doesn't change the consumption to the wall (220w).

Also, looking at GPUZ, and when the card is reporting power, the power seems to come only from the PCIE Slot (150 watts from PCIe in GPUZ !)

Do you know what could be the issue ?

Strangest thing is appart from this, everything seems to work fine...

Thank you for any feedback.

Christophe

ahh runaway TDP you max out the power .   220 vs 120 watts. yeah windows does this.

simple, your oc is just very slightly too aggressive
