marco.is.not.80 Posted Sunday at 09:21 AM Posted Sunday at 09:21 AM Amazing. I don't know the architecture since I don't have a 5090 but how are you able to pull LN2 scores with chilled water? There is no thermal throttling? Also, how are you getting around limits? For example, look at OGS in #2 - he has a Galax card - we can assume they supplied a special BIOS or it has a software utility that allows him to work the magic - but I don't even see an Elmer's EVC connected to your Astral so how does it work? ASUS supply an unlocked BIOS? Sorry for the dumb questions - like I said - no 5090 RTX for me yet so super ignorant at the moment. Maybe this is like the situation with ECC on 4090 RTX? Anyways, amazing score - congrats. Quote

All 5090 have cold bug @-40 and when the core has lower temp than 0c the core clocks lock @3277 Mhz. So while benching you have to keep the core in positive temps. @GKVV Well done guys, great score. 2 Quote

marco.is.not.80 Posted 19 hours ago Posted 19 hours ago Thanks Phil/d0minat0r for the illuminating answers. I've still been unable to secure one of these beast cards (unless I want to pay scalper prices) and look forward to benching with one. Again, great score GKVV... Quote
