Overall I'm pretty new to overclocking so I'm just trying something out but i think i have the general idea. I'm on the OCCT standard video test right now, and I'm actively tweaking the core clock to test when it begins having errors. The stock core clock of my Strix 3080 is 1905MHz. The test is showing that the core clock is reaching a maximum of 1845Mhz while drawing around 415-425W and running at around 0.825V. I've increased the Power Limit to 121%, The Temp Limit to 91C, and the GPU Voltage % to 100%. I've tried to increase the Core Clock to +150MHz, but it doesn't really seem to make it budge. Its reaching around 76C at most with the fans running at 100%. If anyone knows how i can increase the power draw to remove that limit, or if I'm maybe running the wrong kind of test, then that would be really helpful. I've attached a screenshot that may be helpful. Cheers!

Set the Fan speed to 80% or lower. These use energy and generates lower clocks as a result.
OC a little at a time. Incrementally 105/110/115% Ect. increase power and watch the sustained clocks.
Do the memory OC separate and after the core OC.
Usually poor results from brute force. Effective clocks depend on power/temp balance.
