Modded RTX 5070 Ti Tops Superposition in Livestream After 2080 Ti PCB Graft

A grafted RTX 2080 Ti PCB powered the damaged card to a chart-topping run, with HWBot verification still pending.

Overview

  • The hybrid GPU, rebuilt by Paulo Gomes with collaborators Enzo Tulio and ET's LGA1155, posted an 8K Optimized Superposition score of 11,150 visible on stream.
  • The team also recorded 16,792 in the 1080p Extreme preset, a result that would rank highly on HWBot but was not formally submitted.
  • A seven-and-a-half hour livestream showed extensive rewiring to add power and ground paths, along with fixes for display signal and Windows driver issues.
  • Reported telemetry included approximately 3.23 GHz core clocks, 34 Gbps memory bandwidth, and a voltage drop reduced from about 400 mV to roughly 30 mV.
  • Coverage noted rapid thermal spikes and a 12 V wire nearing 100 °C during runs, underscoring safety and stability concerns for the ad‑hoc power delivery.
