Right. I am, even considering water cooling as I’ve read that some people even with thermal pads continue to have issues.
The thing is, I’ve had no problems really. I’ve had this rig running for about a week and it was my own anxiety that led me to start worrying about the memory temperature. I’ve had an average hashrate that is almost exactly what I was expecting without overclocking or aftermarket mods. But, when I learned there were two GPU temperatures that needed to be monitored, and because HiveOS does not display the memory junction temp for the 3080/3090, I became worried. I exited HiveOS and booted up windows, ran lolminer and connected to my hiveon pool address. Ran Hwinfo and with total stock settings I saw a memory junction temp of 104C. So I exited the program, rebooted hiveOS and dropped the power level significantly which dropped core temp by a good bit. The hashrate has remained the same and is even a little higher now so that is giving me anxiety in that I suspect that I am still stressing out the GDDR6X. I am gonna go back into windows and do exactly what I’m doing now with the power level, fans etc and see what the memory temp does. I will report back.
