Hi Man! Can you please test your cards again with this version of bench while Octane team conquers the world and prepairing benchmarkcarmichael84 wrote:The 1080ti stock cooler is pretty impressive. I just built a z270 rig with 3 EVGA Founders cards. Total Octane Bench score was 628 with +150 base clock and +500mem.
Even if the benchmark numbers are off, those temps are great. Gotta say, I'm pretty happy.

Just ran the 3.06 bench. 
3x 1080ti OC (=150clock / +500 Mem)
3x 1080ti Stock
Then I also ran the bench on my 4x 980ti's OC (+150Clock / +400mem):
4x 980ti Stock just for fun:

To follow up my previous post, I think it's important as so many have said, to not really take the benchmark too literally. 
Testing in a real scene, my 4x980ti OC rendered a shot in 5:27
My 3x 1080ti OC rig rendered the same scene in 4:03.
(All in octane for c4d 3.05)
So in Octane Bench, my 980ti's actually out performed my 3 1080ti's when overclocked.
But in real world testing, the 3x 1080ti's were almost 30% faster.

Hi Guys,
I have an Msi Corsair GTX1080 Seahawk (AIO Watercooled)
I see my temp hovering between 49-50C while rendering in Octane. Keeping in mind i generally render animation for sometimes 24 hours at a time, is it safe/worth it to overclock this card?

Actually, I consider that pretty decent temps. I have never come across a definitive max temp for hybrids, but the thing to keep in mind is that AIO pumps' max temp must be far below what GPU cores can handle. And since the pump sits right on top of core, they are definitely getting some serious heat. I have to think that if a pump started approaching 83° (181.4° F) it would not be good, at all... My top (display) gets up to 63° during full blast rendering, with no overclocking, and #2 gets to 60°. So for me personally, I dare not push the envelope and/or my luck...
If anyone knows what is very safe max for hybrids, please advise. Though I would prolly not OC even if someone said 75°...
