sometimes when playing gta5 but most of the time, no
im concerned if the card is broken or not because i recently got new problem where my card only draws 27 watts while playing gta 5 in result of huge performance lost

That MAY be the card throttling because its overheating.

Download MSI Afterburner. Play a game, and use its built in monitoring software to monitor temps and speed and so on. Give us some screenshots of that so we can see what the card is doing under load.
