Hi all.
So I have an average computer in my lounge, which I mainly use as a Media PC.
The huge problem I'm having is that the GPU Has all of the sudden dropped in performance. I have been running a stable clock on it for the last 6months, using MSI Afterburner, and it has been fine. it has never gone above 80-85 degrees C, (under load) but all the sudden i started up the PC the other day and noticed that in game it was horrible!
So I proceeded to run a stress test to see whats going on and I noticed the following:
Gpu Temp idle's at 30-35 deg C, when put under full load in stress test it only went up about 5 deg C?!?!
then I also noticed that all though both GPU usage, and FB usage were both between 95-99% (which is good under heavy load), the VID usage and the BUS usage were flat lined at 0%!! Also Core, Shader, and memory clocks were all running quite low as well. All being used but not to their fullest under a stress test load. This has resulted in a drop from usually 45-60 FPS to a shocking 5-15 FPS which is impossible to use! its only a 560Ti (I am not very well off haha) but has always worked swell for what i use it for and how i use it. I have made no hardware changes, so I dont no what the heck is going on!
PLEASE HELP???
I am quite Hardware savvy, but when it comes to software I am hopeless.
so please dumb down your answers so that I can understand what it is I need to do?
Thanks heaps in advance. Kind regards, Simon.
