At first I thought that my GPU was faulty... I sold my GTX 1060. Now I have Sapphire Nitro+ RX 580 8GB. It is also throttling... Let me correct... It is throttling even worse!

Everything is same as before except new Motherboard! I was using a HP OEM mobo with gtx 1050ti and everything was fine! I upgraded to Asus Q87M-E mobo and Msi gaming x 1060 6gb! Throttling started! i sold 1060 beacuse i thought it was faulty.. today i purchased rx 580 8gb.. Now it is throttling too!

Already did that brother :)

BTW i also wanna say that when I play Need For Speed Mostwanted 2012 (Maxed out @ 1280x1024) and Call Of Duty Modern Warfare Remastered (Maxed out @ 1280x1024) the GPU works fine with constant 99% usage or 100% usage..

BUT when i play Batman Arkham Origins (Maxed out @ 1280x1024), State of Decay(Maxed out @ 1280x1024) and Mafia 2 (Maxed out @ 1280x1024)... GPU starts to throttle with very low gpu usage! Specially in Batman when the usage drops from 100% to 0% instantly!
