[SOLVED] GPU usage dipping every 60 seconds (GTX 1660 Super) ?

[bunidavo]

Hi,

My game was getting low framerates whitch i did not get the half year before it. Hope someone could help. I found out every 60 seconds or so my Inno3D GPU usage was dipping and gpu-z confirmed it. i do not know what it could be or what i can do about it ?

I have checked PSU cables, temps of components (no vram) and cranked up the van speed.
Problem occurs when playing squad or ghost recon breakpoint. but also when using excel or typing on word or discord. And it tends to be doing it more during or after playing a game.
it seems like every 60 seconds the GPU does not get data or power consistantly. Also the processor gets a werd (small) up down spike ?

Specs:

AMD Ryzen 5 3600X
Asus ROG STRIX X570-E GAMING
Corsair DDR4 Vengeance LPX 2x8GB 3600
Gigabyte GP-P750GM 750W PSU
Inno3D GeForce GTX 1660 Super
Samsung 970 EVO 500GB M.2 SSD
Samsung 970 EVO 500GB M.2 SSD
Seagate HDD 3.5" 2TB ST2000DM008 Barracuda
StarTech.com Afstandsbus #6-32 to M3 - 50st. Standoff
Noctua NH-D15
Windows 10 64 bit

For the 1660 Super i got a new Arctic Accelero Xtreme 3 fitted on it.
Mobo BIOS: American Megatrends inc 2408 24-7-2020
GPU bios: 90.16.4f.00.28

Thanks for the help in advance.

When did you swap the cooler? Was it by any chance right before the issues started?

How are the temps of the cpu and gpu idle and while gaming?

Make sure you have the latest Windows updates, chipset drivers and BIOS.
