Hi.
At some point after having my system powered on, while the system was
4 days on idle, my GTX 1080 becomes permanently throttled in 3d. The
graphics clock was halved from a maximum of 1950-1960mhz (factory OC) to
1285mhz . When this occurs, it doesn't matter how much I load my card,
be it games or other demanding applications, it does not ever go past
the above caps. The only solution I have had up until now was to reboot
the system .GPU-Z reports the "perfcap" reason as PWR
And it happened just once.
I have 0 driver crashes. And normally the event log will show the
drive crash report which in my case it doesn't show. So its not related
to driver crash.
I have SLEEP and HIBERNATE setting TURN OFF to NEVER. Turn off Monitor have after 15 minutes.
Here is a picture:
PC: 6700K no OC
2x8GB Kingston Hyperx
Corsair 750 RM
Gigabyte Gtx 1080 Xtreme
SSD Crucial Bx 100 256 GB
Asus Z170-P
Windows 10
Is my hardware GPU failing?
But maybe some kind of unstable factory oc by my card? Mini crash?
