It works for me! NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Firmware Update Utility This package contains the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti GPU VBIOS. A video BIOS is the BIOS of the graphics card or the integrated graphics controller in your system. It provides a set of video-related functions for programs to access the video hardware. Fixes & Enhancements- Improved the GPU performance of the system. Version 94.03.19.00.DB, A01 Release date June 14, 2022  
Hello! I have a x17 R1 (i9-11980HK, RTX 3080, 32GB RAM, 2TB SSD) and a x17 R2 (i9-12900HK, RTX 3080 Ti, 32GB RAM, 2TB SSD). I use MSI Afterburner in game overlay for real time monitoring. And I did some tests on these two. Prime95 30.3b6, 10 minutes small FPU test, CPU power: R1 90W(constant)/120W(max), R2 130W(constant)/165W(max) MSI Kombustor4, 15 minutes, GPU power: R1 150W(constant), R2 125W(constant) Furmark 1.29, 15 minutes, GPU power: R1 128W(constant), R2 138W(constant) 3DMark Time Spy, GPU power: R1 150W(max), R2 125W(max)/150W(max, Fn+F1) Ran some games like Forza Horizon 5, Assassin's Creed: Valhalla, Cyberpunk 2077, Far Cry 6, F1 2021, Total War Warhammer 3, max GPU Power on R1 can easily reach 150W without Fn+F1 turbo mode, on R2 most of the time only 125W on GPU. If I turn turbo mode on on R2, the GPU can reach 150W but the CPU will step down very soon. On the thermal side, the R2 reaches 100℃ CPU temperature and I think it's under the Intel regulations so it's OK for me. ([URL] Both GPUs don't exceed 75℃ and GPU thermal tweaking in AWCC doesn't work at all (I set it to 85℃).  The 12900HK performance on R2 is the best from what I have seen, for now. It's amazing. I get constant scores around 7200 in Cinebench R20 continuously benchmark and better than the references ([URL] My problem is the RTX 3080 Ti, I can't get it working on the 160W max power (without Dynamic Boost from NVIDIA). Most of the time it can only work under 125W power with CPU only around 130W and 95℃, and scores a little bit less than R1 in game benchmarks. What may I do wrong?  1. Is the AWCC bugged to tweak RTX 3080/3080 Ti Power Limit and Thermal Limit? 2. Is the AWCC bugged to UNLINK the GPU Power Limit and GPU Thermal Limit? 3. Is it the current BIOS/vBIOS tweaking that prevents RTX 3080 Ti on R2 exceeds the 150W power limit even on turbo mode? 4. If [3] is true, when can we get the new BIOS update to release the true R2 power? 5. If nothing above is correct, what may I do wrong that holds my R2 back? What can I do to release the true R2 power(12900HK at 130W with 3080 Ti at 175W at the same time). Thanks!
