Full load on the CPU (Prime95, Small FFTs)
This mode is much better balanced and also takes some of the heat out of the CPU. With plenty of 125 watts, after the PL1 with the almost 100 °C in the peak, it is then only 77 to 79 °C, which can also be measured in the sound level, which is now about 2 dB lower at just under 50 dBA
The remaining temperatures of the other active components are as usual and the cooler itself doesn’t show any abnormalities in the infrared image. Keep the change.
Full load on the GPU (Furmark)
Let’s swap the target for the stress test and now load the GPU. Dynamic Boost again applies the full 15 watts of boost, bringing us to a total of 165 watts. However, the course is already a bit more jittery. The total system load is around 239 to 242 watts, so it’s also a bit lower. The noise level is slightly fluctuating at about 53 dBA.
The CPU’s temperatures are then on the level of 52 to 53 °C at about 30 to 32 watts, the GPU’s temperatures are at 66 to 77 °C., which is also a bit lower than in performance mode.
Maximum load on GPU (Furmark) and CPU (Prime95 Small FFTs, 12 threads)
Let’s return to the maximum inferno and stress both the GPU and CPU again. I’m only running the latter with 12 threads this time, too, because otherwise Furmark would be slowed down. The system load quickly settles at 350 watts, since the PL1 slows down the CPU to 120 to 125 watts and the graphics card has to be satisfied with 138 to 155 watts without Dynamic Boost. Approximately 54 dBA is audible at the ear and the meter.
CPU temperatures are now around 88 to 89 °C (so about 5 °C lower than in Performance Mode) and GPU temperatures are at an ample 69 °C (also about 5 °C lower). The CPU’s level is once again higher than in the single test, since the heat pipes still have to dissipate the waste heat of the following graphics card. The DDR4 RAM benefits the most from the starvation diet.
Gaming Load (Control DX 12 , DXR On, DLSS Off)
The system load is now with 270 to almost 300 watts on average clearly below the performance mode, whereby you can already see the power brakes in the GPU and especially the CPU, which is sporadically really braked here and drops down to 60 watts, but snaps with 77 watts more than before. On average, however, one is lower than in the previous mode. Thanks to Dynamic Boost, the graphics card fluctuates between 152 and 161 watts, which is still exactly within the possibilities, but the average value is a bit lower.
Acoustically, we’re tortured a little less with the ample 50 dBA, so it’s audibly improved. Silent mode could still be recommended here as a second solution, only then I don’t need an i9 and RTX 3080. Then already rather again headphones for the more sensitive souls.
The temperatures still turn out quite moderate with 62 to 80 °C, depending on the gaming situation, while the GPU now gets 78 to 79 °C hot. In the end, this is certainly all still within limits, but is also due to the somewhat different, more restrained fan curve, which does not roar so extremely under full load, as long as the loads alternate more strongly with GPU and especially CPU.
