Hoping someone here has tried as I’m too new to mining to brick one of my top GPU’s. But I know/can see the massive cooler and extra 8 pin on the FTW3, and I’ve read I can get an extra 50 watts (not that I need it for mining). Point is the FTW3 gets 87+ mh, whereas the XC3 is currently only getting 78-79, though it has done 81-83 if I leave the core clock unlocked (0). But it hits lhr lock over and over till it sucks it down to around 77.
Still playing with the tune, and currently have it set at 1280 CC, 2800 mem and it’s pulling about 258 watts doing 78.5-79 with no lhr lock in the last hour and a half.
btw, nvidia driver is 495.44 (because 470 knocked it down to 73-74mh).
