Can someone share the OC settings for GTX 1080 OC 8GB (non TI), please?

These are my OC settings for nvOC:

POWERLIMIT="NO"
__CORE_OVERCLOCK=275
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK=600
FAN_SPEED=100

The card gets heated: 82 C (stays there 24/7 consistently)

With the above OC settings, I get 315-330 MH/s on LBC and 495-505 Sol/s on ZEC.

With the same OC settings as on nvOC, Windows 10 is able to get 345-365 MH/s on LBC and 545-565 Sol/s on ZEC with temperature not going over 79 C. I used MSI Afterburner on Windows.

Any ideas?
Well, in nvOC (Linux) the OC is different. So you might want to up your mem OC quite a bit.

As written before by fullzero:
Powerlimits in windows are in percent TDP; in linux they are in watts.  Thus a powerlimit of 70 in windows is .7 * 120 watts or whatever the TDP is (84 watts if the card TDP is 120); while 70 in linux is 70 watts.  I would recommend comparing Windows and linux powerlimits with a kill-a-watt to get them exactly equal; but most likely a 3gb 1060 has a 120 or 125 watt TDP.

Also linux OC offsets are scaled differently than windows; you will need to use higher offsets to get the same results in linux.
