August 17, 20214 yr Commercial Member Hello! Do you think it would be worth it for me to overclock my Asus 3080? Would I get any boost in performance? Also, what is more important to boost the core clock or the memory clock? Thanks!

August 17, 20214 yr In contrast, I would definitively rather undervolt this card for the sake of some FPS instead, resulting in a more quiet and less hot GPU. With todays GPUs, overclocking does not make sense imho, too little FPS gains... Greetings, Chris AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, 2x32GB DDR5 6000MT/s RAM, MSI RTX 4090 Ventus 3X, Windows 11 Home, MSFS2024

August 17, 20214 yr A word of caution though if undervolting, I had a stable undervolt for a while giving me drop of about 10-15 degrees C on temps and about 90 watts less power usage. After a couple of months, I started to get random CTD only with MSFS. Removed the undervolt and it has been rock solid since. I agree with others there is little benefit in overclocking a 3080 for MSFS but the undervolting is something to consider provided you are willing to put the effort into getting it stable. MSFS is very sensitive to changes on the GPU. Ryzen 9800X3D, RTX 5090, 64GB, Win 11. MSFS2020. Moza, MFG, Fulcrum & Virpil controllers. Quest 3 for VR.
August 17, 20214 yr After fiddling around tons in MSI Afterburner, I gave up on trying to overclock as I was getting CTDs even with a relatively small OC's. Aorus Master X570 / 5800x3d w/ Arctic Freezer ii 280 / Asus TUF 3090 w/ gigabyte BIOS / 2x16GB b-die @ 3600Mhz
August 17, 20214 yr Strange question to ask. Usually does not require someone else to tell you if you think overclocking your own components is worth it or not. Just either do it or don't. Based on the results im sure you would come to your own conclusion...

August 17, 20214 yr As with bbsmitz ... my experience is that, for some reason, the sim does not like overclocking (admittedly I was not overclocking GPU, just CPU and memory) - was the cause of most of my CTD issues even though all other games and applications had no problem with similar overclock. Save yourself the heartache and don't bother! Cheers! Ads Kluczinsky

Well you didn't really answer my question 😉 Thanks to everyone else for their input. If everyone had to test everything on their own the AVSIM forums would be empty.

August 17, 20214 yr I certainly did ... What YOU were looking for was the easy way out .. All you needed to do was do the test yourself and LEARN for yourself.. but since you want to depend on the anecdotal experience of others WHO DONT have the same exact configuration as you ... Certainly have at it..

August 17, 20214 yr Moderator The OP asked a reasonable question. Just suggesting he try it is not really helpful because 1) he may not know how to do it and 2) if does incorrectly it could damage the card. If you don't feel you can help don't answer.
