Why would anybody get an RTX 3070 only to massively power limit it? The 3060 is a 170W GPU. I'm getting the same performance at 105-110W (average during gaming). The GPU will draw 120-130W when I apply a massive overclock and ramp up the voltage (for the sake of benchmarking). Not a sustainable way to run the GPU + not stable in game anyway. A 50-60W reduction in power consumption while netting the same performance is a win in my book. I generally run it at about 1750Mhz peak at 0.800V or thereabouts. Also, this was more of an exercise in soldering (I had only ever soldered wires together previously) and tinkering. On a final note, the performance per liter you can get from this GPU in your setup is simply not possible with an RTX 3070.
