I had a tinker last night and overclocked the RTX 3090 to gain 5% over the stock 3090 performance I also tuned Ubuntu 20.04.1 which delivered an additional +40 points on top of the overclocks alone, and game-mode was enabled.
Intel Core i9-9900K@5.1Ghz all core and DDR4@3600Mhz CL16 with tuned sub memory timings

Not for Superposition 1080p Extreme. It's a GPU killer.

Nice beast btw! Just insane power usage.

my 1080Ti gets a bit more with memory OC... iirc with +150 core and +300 mem i only got around 5450 and with +80 core and +900 mem i got like 5600 something. Anyway its a fine balancing act, to fit into the powerlimits with all the OCs, so it wont start throttling.

!R5 3600
Which is not that much better than my previous CPU (R3 1200).

Clearly a GPU-bottlenecked benchmark as during the test it showed 100% GPU utilization almost all the time.

i don't think this number there changes much. it might have just captured the clocks when your CPU was idling. you can ofc try to force your CPU to performance mode by using cpufreq, cpupower or whatever have you on your distro. or maybe even feral gamemode. I doubt it makes much difference in this bench anyway though, as at the default settings its just taxing the GPU the most anyway.
It seems to just report what the kernel says it is, which is generally the CPU at base clock, not the maximum boost clock.

anyway yeah.. it shows that CPU doesnt matter in this bench.
