    Question GTX 1080 sometimes not drawing enough power ?

    Gave up on this after a week because I completely wiped my SSD, unplugged my hard drive and still the same problem. Getting a bit bored of the same few games so anyone have any other suggestions on what could be wrong because I am stumped.

    Question GTX 1080 sometimes not drawing enough power ?

    I have a hard drive with windows installed on it which I previously used as my main drive before I upgraded to an SSD. Would running it off that drive work similarly to a partition or do I need a clean drive/partition to work with? Or could the software issue be carried over.

    Question GTX 1080 sometimes not drawing enough power ?

    I have already run DDU to remove card drivers initially before I installed a previous version, which ended up having the same problem. I'll try the partition as well. Would it also work if I had windows installed on my hard drive and tried running it off that? Or would it still have the same...

    Question GTX 1080 sometimes not drawing enough power ?

    Do you have any software recommendations for determining if I have malware or some other software is screwing with certain games?

    Question GTX 1080 sometimes not drawing enough power ?

    Just took another screenshot of taskmanager along with HWiNFO after finding some more stuff to close: The FPS while doing this ranged between 70 and 120 (along with stutters increasing for the lower fps) depending on if I was looking towards the middle of the map or away (more stuff loaded...

    Question GTX 1080 sometimes not drawing enough power ?

    Haven't checked with tarkov yet as there is a big update, however I remember it being high - 90-100% when monitoring it before. However, from monitoring HWiNFO64 just now it seems like the cpu usage is actually at 40-50% while playing CSGO with nothing else open on my PC, even my antivirus, and...

    Question GTX 1080 sometimes not drawing enough power ?

    Any ideas on what's causing this? Because everything worked perfectly together for about a month after I bought the cpu (upgraded because old one was bottlenecking) and then overnight this happened which leads me to think a part may not be working as intended, but I have no clue to as which one...

    Question GTX 1080 sometimes not drawing enough power ?

    Sorry for late response - just tested it on CS:GO, I seem to be getting very similar frames with maybe a 10% increase, however the stuttering also seems to have drastically increased making it feel as if I have lost fps. Took a screenshot of the CPU sensors on HWiNFO after playing for around 10...

    Question GTX 1080 sometimes not drawing enough power ?

    CPU is running around 65-70C usually - only going higher when I have chrome and a few games open. The problem with the graphics card is that the GPU3D usage goes to 100% while the card is drawing 50-60% power, which causes frame drops and a lot of stuttering making a few games impossible to...

    Question GTX 1080 sometimes not drawing enough power ?

    PSU is a SilverStone 550W Strider Gold S 80+ Gold Power Supply (ST55F-GS) - bought in early 2019. Graphics card is Asus 1080 ROG strix 8gb (https://rog.asus.com/graphics-cards/graphics-cards/rog-strix/rog-strix-gtx1080-a8g-gaming-model/) - no mods, mining or OC. I tried updating graphics...

    Question GTX 1080 sometimes not drawing enough power ?

    This happened a while ago and I have been ignoring it for the most part but its getting really annoying now. A few months ago I noticed I had lower frames than usual (about 100+ less) and frame drops/stuttering while playing SOME games and after looking through HWiNFO64 I noticed my GPU was...

    Question 1080 not drawing enough power

    SilverStone 550W Strider Gold S 80+ Gold Power Supply I just ran a GPU stress test through MSI kombustor and the power consumed reached 200W, while playing games it only reaches 80W, which seems to indicate its not a psu problem?

    Question 1080 not drawing enough power

    Recently I noticed I had lower frames than usual (about 100+ less) and frame drops/stuttering while playing games and after looking through HWiNFO64 I noticed my GPU was only drawing 75W of power, but was running at 100% utilisation. The temperatures of the GPU also stayed below 60C with fans on...

    Question GPU running at 100% with frame drops & stuttering ?

    yeah updated it before I installed

    Question GPU running at 100% with frame drops & stuttering ?

    Those were avg max across the GPU/CPU. The hot spot max was 65C for GPU and CPU was 64C, which isn't much higher. And no, I don't live in Antarctica. I do usually have a window open behind my pc and the room fan on, but I wouldn't think that would make too much of a difference.
