    Hello all,

    Was just curious if anyone knows where the GPU Voltage is in the BIOS.

    I was looking at HWINFO64 Sensors and noticed that Performance Limit - Power keeps saying "Yes" even though there is no actual overclock on the 1080 applied. Stock settings on CPU and GPU and it keeps saying its hitting the TDP limit.

    Thanks to all in advance!

    1. You can't increase GPU voltage
    2. Hitting power limit on stock is normal

    Basically the way GPU boost 3.0 works is that it will keep going until it hits one of the limits it has defined, be that temperature or power etc.

    I was just making sure there wasn't anything wrong. I read about GPU throttling and read that was one of the indicators, although a false positive in this context sense no overclocking is applied.
