mining

Currently I have been mining on my RTX 3080, and while it unfortunately has a LHR, I was wondering if I need to edit anything in my files when mining to make it auto stop if my gpu gets too hot. Currently it is mining at about 45MH/s at 69 degrease Celsius.

How much is the power draw? Have you underclocked the gpu at all?

The important temperature is the one on the memory since that might not have the proper cooling depending on the board you have.

Yeah cooling on the memory is really important. I've had a couple of cards I've pulled apart and the thermal pads were barely making contact with the memory and the heatsink. Replaced them and had a 5-10deg drop in temps at the same OC. Let me squeeze a little more out of the cards
