What is the voltage now? If you have the following situation 0.04 Ohm is really low value, so the reason can be your soldering.īut you can check this: reduce the power consumption of your RTX 3080 to a minimum, no game, just a 'static Windows screen', like a maximized Explorer-window. If your soldering has an electrical resistance of 0.04 Ohm. At 12V you have 11 ampere current on each cable. 75 Watt can be taken from PCI-slot, so around 260 Watt is taken from cable connectors, 130 Watts each. Let's have a look at the power consumption a RTX 3080 consumes max 340 Watts. So, your 11.5 V is still within specification. The ATX specification says the following: ATX 12V power must be between 11.4 V and 12.6 V (ATX 12 V +/- 5%)

PSU: Corsair RM850i - All 8-Pin plugs have their own cables and not daisy chained. Was the soldering not done properly? Or is this now a male to female pin contact issue? Then it would come back on the moment the fans enter 0 RPM mode. However, when the GPU is loaded, the white LED's would shut down. only 11.9, just like the others.Īlso, ever since it was repaired, the White LED's which means 'PSU abnormalities' would turn on, but the card is stable. Before this incident, I checked my old photos and saw that the 8-pin 2 wouldn't go down as low as 11.5V.

The card is stable even when it's overclocked, passes stress tests.Īdditional background info - I had this card repaired, I accidentally got one of the choke capacitors off when I was taking off one of the fan headers during thermal pads replacement. Power draw seems fine but I do notice the pin 2 has the lowest draw. I also ran HWInfo and GPU-Z separately to avoid any sensor confusion. Is this fine? Possibly, using software to check these figures ain't the best tool. Hey all, while I was checking my temps to see how they currently are at full load, I noticed my GPU 8-Pin #2 would go down to 11.5V.
