I don't know if you've owned an Nvidia GPU lately but there is no factory overclock because the card itself boosts up to the highest possible value based on power and thermals anyways.OC versions of the regular cards are just factory over clocked. Not binned any higher. Strix, kingpin, etc cards may be binned higher or have a higher power limit.
I've owned a few... you can still overclock on them (TUring). I don't know about these. It all depends not the power limit headroom which the OC'd cards tend to have more room.I don't know if you've owned an Nvidia GPU lately but there is no factory overclock because the card itself boosts up to the highest possible value based on power and thermals anyways.
Overclocking video cards there is very little to be gained.
Even on our forum I doubt the majority of users are going to be flashing a cards bios.
Fake news. I see a 10% increase in performance on my overclock. With a custom BIOS you can EASILY get a 2080 super to outperform a 2080Ti stock. EASILY. I'd be willing to bet that I could get a 3080 to outperform a stock 3090 with the right BIOS or shunt mod.
Then maybe they shouldent be on this forum. This is an overclocking forum and flashing a BIOS is super easy. I had zero experience doing it and I was successful on my first attempt. Took me about 30 min of reading to figure it out and then it was a done deal. Even without a BIOS flash, depending on what card you have there is still a ton of potential for gains. You can get 5% solely off the memory overclock.
There was a time I would have agree'd with you. But now with my limited time I run my stuff close to stock most of the time since I don't want instability to ruin what game time I have.
Most wont bios flash or shunt mkd in order to see those type of gains. Realistically for most, its but a couple of percent.. less and less each generation. But sure, if you're bios flashing and shunt modding, you can get several % increase.Fake news. I see a 10% increase in performance on my overclock.

you can have your cake and eat it too... but it will go bad if you eat both, lol. I think you proved HIS point.My stuff is stable. Maybe after two years I have to drop the OC by one notch, but otherwise it's stable.

Not with Ampere (isn't that what we are talking about?).You can get 5%+ solely by moving the sliders around in your OC program of choice with absolutely no BIOS mod.
Maybe... but you're getting into the realm of exotic cooling which isn't a 24/7 thing... again, the context of this thread is ambient, not one off LN2 awesomeness.There are 2080Tis out there that will outperform even an overclocked 3090.

You're right on some points, but this is a straw man argument...we aren't talking about sub-ambient and BIOS/shunt mods. I think you're talking in Turing/previous gen gains, and I'm talking Ampere (along with the OP we're trying to help here).
You can get 5%+ solely by moving the sliders around in your OC program of choice with absolutely no BIOS mod. REAL shunt moding and hardcore BIOS editing with extreme cooling can get you nearly a 50% increase. There are 2080Tis out there that will outperform even an overclocked 3090. I have seen 2080Tis running like 2600 Mhz core clock. It can be done.
Also, having to drop the OC after two years a single bracket is nothing. After 2 years I probably sell my stuff anyway so who cares. That's like complaining that you have to wash brand new cars therefore they arnt worth buying. That's such a ridiculously inconsequential task it's not even worth mentioning.
Where did you get the numbers for Actual 3D performance gained from overclocking?
