Overclocking, Noise, Heat and Power


The size of the cooler on this card is obviously sufficient to provide great performance, even with its modest factory overclocks. However, does it have enough guts to go even faster? Of course it does! Manufacturers pretty much always play it too safe. I was able to push the boost clock up, with a +155 MHz increase. Furthermore, the memory was happy to run with a +550 MHz increase. That’s a pretty big performance boost for what was basically a free upgrade. This increase saw the card post 23604 points in 3DMark; our fifth fastest score to date and the second fastest RTX 2080 score.

Acoustic Performance

The card isn’t noisy as such, but it’s obviously higher up on the chart at 47 dBA. It’s a dual fan slimmer cooler design, so it does work a little harder than some of the big cooler designs.

Thermal Performance

Clearly the fans are doing a good job though, and at stock clocks, it’s barely getting near that thermal limit. Overclocking did push the temperatures up quite a bit though. Personally, I would leave this card at stock unless you’ve got a robust amount of airflow in your system to take the load off the GPUs fans.
