Memory on 3080 Stix Throttling under Load

Question

Hi,

I have a bitspower 3080 classic strix block mounted on a strix. Currently the card core temps are fine at idle and load, but the memory starts throttling under load (HWinfo shows at junction temp of 110). I followed the directions provided with the block, but what could be the problem here?

I have attached pictures of the original installation of the thermal pads. I am also sure that I peeled off the plastic from the pads as well.

Hello Sky_law,

Would you send us the photo of the VGA card or water block which can see the pressed trace on the thermal pad? What's your card core temps? And how many radiators and fans did you use? Please offer us the water cooling loop photo of your case. We will check and reply you, thank you.
