105C is generally safe for all electronic components and if you let the board sit on it for a while it makes soldering way easier. For really heavy boards and large components I go upto around 160C. At that point you can't just leave the board that hot forever so you kinda want to get all you soldering done quickly.
I must have been very lucky back when I got my 1080ti. I undervolted it and it still never drops below 2100mhz. No mods or anything done to it at all. That’s even without touching the power limit slider.
Here is the problem with this if the max most can get on pascal is say 2030mhz and you brute force your way to 2130mhz by shunt modding you only gain a 5% increase so if your fps in a game is around 30 you have only achieved a extra 1.5fps at best
Yeah, for gaming it doesn't make sense. Here I get 2025 - 2050mhz on cyberpunk 2077 with overclock+ 116% power limit. It gives me about 10% more fps. With lukefz fsr3 mod, I'm getting 55fps 1080p ultra config. With OC, I get straight 60fps This is with DLSS or XeSS on quality profile. Sometimes the card drains 144W But for what I see, even if I did shunt mod, couldn't get more than 3 extra fps, with much more risk, because I'm already getting that much power from it.
... im throttling on a titan maxwell. will a shunt mod help me? ALSO>. how much is your gpu consuming? it the GPU-z reading accurate or is it doubled? i didn't understand that part. thank you ! AWESOME OC
if you are power throttling then yes. but the Titan Maxwells VRM is weak on a good day. there is a non 0 chance it will blow up if you shunt mod it. the power reading is 60% of the real power draw if you use 8mohm shunts on top of 5mohm.
@@CmdrSoyo im thinking of using 10mohm shunts for the titan maxwell.. i also have a 1080ti, evga sc edition.. shunt mod on that what should i do >? put under water is my goal eventually.
So 5 miliohm is standard for NVIDIA or do I need to measure across them to know what they are? I have an aging "gaming laptop" with a 2060 Max-Q for the graphics. With it's 65w TDP and the fact that it's paired with a decent 30w Ryzen 4900, I think it'd make a good candidate for this type of surgery. It's psu charger has basically just enough extra headroom being 180w, and you never know... maybe it wouldn't catch on fire!
Hello mate, how do u find the shunt resistence? I have a m gt 1030 and it has 30w tdp limit but i cant afford a new card rn , i want to play rdr2 with more fps :(
you can't the GP106 GPU does not have the memory channels needed for that. you would have to use a GP104 instead which would turn this card into a 1070 or 1080
wonder if larger ram chips could be used . since you can fill the two missing pads lol just curious aa the 6gb does get in the way of the 1060 @@CmdrSoyo
the core position on this card looks so weird.
It looks like the shunt on the pci-express slot is bridged completely with solder.
That's the fuse. He did that so it wouldn't blow when it gets more than 75w through the slot.
Lol watching linus tech tips is painful
I just can't do it lol
How hot do you set the hotplate for?

you don't du this for gaming but for benchmark records ;-)

Maybe it is just me but after having tried the GTX 1060 on Samsung Micron and Hynix memory chips, I have had the worst experience with Hynix.

Is there a way to increase VRAM voltage? Nice mod!
@@Wrublos212 yes. You just do a feedback mod like for everything else.

dont shun mod if you can't afford to lose the card ;-)
shunt modding is not for gaming, it's for benchmark records (card won't last long)
Is there any chance you can respond in the email or on Reddit?
does it works the same way with a Asus Geforce 1060 6gb i got a old card that could be fun to play around with
Is there a way to contact you in a way that is not the comment section, zB via Mail?
Greetings from Germany ;)
wonder if you could add two more memory chips lol

nice work
Is 2126 MHz core and 4428 MHz memory a good overclock for non modded 1060 3GB ?
core seems good. mem i'm not sure
Bro my vga gtx 1060 alwas power limit reached on 10%TDP. And the 6 pin power showing 0.2 watt.. What should i do..
i would suspect something is wrong with the INA3221 chip. Tech Cemetery had a similar problem n this video: th-cam.com/video/bF3dfLjaplo/w-d-xo.html
