Are you sure you actually have FreeSync activated? Using an FS display with a GeForce card you'll need to force it on in your GPU driver settings (unless you have one of the relatively few certified displays out there). Tearing should be entirely eliminated by using any form of adaptive sync, which makes me think it's not actually activated for you.

That's exactly what I did. I've experimented with Nvidia Pendulum Demo with 1050 Ti:
| G-Sync | Refresh rate, Hz | Result |
| OFF | 75 / 60 | Frequent tearing |
| ON | 75 | Occasional tearing |
| ON | 60 | No tearing |
Okay, got it. Yes, it had throttled at 83°C.
If the rumors of the GTX series being retired entirely are true, we can't expect successors in the RTX series to have the same naming tier. Remember, the GTX 1660 (and Ti) were a clear step below the RTX 2060, despite both being xx60 tier cards.. Ampere also generally seems to increase power draws at each naming level, at least with current SKUs. So, if there's an RTX 3050, it's far more likely to be meant to succeed the GTX 1660 (or Ti) than the 1650 (Ti/Super), and a 120W TBP sounds likely as such. For a 1650 (Ti) successor, I guess we'll see if Nvidia brings back the xx40 naming tier this go around - if not, they'll have a tough time fitting in all the performance and power draw tiers given how wide their GPU stack is looking. Or maybe they'll actually update the xx30 tier this go around? IMO there'd be room for both if they actually made a low-end Ampere die, say at $100 and $150 and 50 and 75W.NVIDIA's Entry-Level GeForce RTX 3050 Rumored To Utilize Ampere GA107 GPU With 2304 Cores & 90W TGP
It looks like even NVIDIA's entry-level lineup in its Ampere stack, including the GeForce RTX 3050, will be featuring ray-tracing support.
Looking at that, it's pretty unlikely we'll see a 75w Low profile card coming on Ampere. The 3050 is 90w TGP SKU (that translates to cards using approx 120w once board, VRM and Vram is factored in)
That sounds like you are having some actual compatibility issues between the GPU and monitor. Not unheard of when using an FS monitor and a Geforce GPU, but more of a consequence of Nvidia really not wanting to spend engineering resources on monitors where they aren't getting a cut. Still a shame though, as the smoothness of 75Hz is definitely noticeably improved over 60Hz.
By how much? You still lost ~13% of your performance increase by power limiting it, so it can't have been throttling that hard. I guess it depends what you're after (if the lower temperature lets you run your fans slower, for example), but if performance is a goal I would let the card regulate itself. 83C even if throttling isn't damaging anything, and you clearly aren't losing performance from it.

Also he said the fans were very quiet. I'd try bumping them up to 100% speed to see if that cooled the chip down
At 100% power limit and before throttling I've seen 1800 MHz, at 83°C - 1650-1700 MHz, at 80% power limit and 76°C - 1625-1675 MHz.
I shall try it out, too. Never seen fan demand over 74%.
What were the temperatures like when you hit 1800MHz? Modern Nvidia cards drop boost clocks every few degrees above ... is it 65°C? So going from an idle card to full load you'll always see it boost high initially before it heats up, but stable clocks will always be lower than peak clocks unless you have a massively overbuilt cooler. That's just how these GPUs work (and part of why they have much lower boost clock specs than real-world clocks). It also sounds rather odd that your stock 83° results beat the 1050 by ~35% and your new power limited results only beat it by 22% if clocks are that similar in use. Is the benchmark you're running long enough for the card to reach steady-state temperatures?At 100% power limit and before throttling I've seen 1800 MHz, at 83°C - 1650-1700 MHz, at 80% power limit and 76°C - 1625-1675 MHz.

Guys, what do you think about Aorus Engine? Since I've got Gigabyte and there is a proprietary software
I know this ?
And this I didn't now, seems logical to me. But it's impossible to limit temperature without touching the power limit, isn't it? I tried, MSI Afterburner doesn't let me.
Hm, Afterburner lets me adjust the target temperature on my AMD cards, but I don't know about Nvidia ones. I would have expected that to be an option at least.
The Asus has a zero RPM fan mode, just like their version of the LP 1050ti. It's great, though I haven't extensively tested it, its usually inaudible in my HTPC.
