GPU won't go above 139mhz

[TheManWhoWantsAComputer]

I recently got a gtx 1060 and while playing a game i realised it was like 50-40fps slower than normal so I check afterburner and it says its running at 139mhz, how do i fix this? My power mode is on max perf

Try reinstalling the graphics card driver, also are you overclocking with a overclocking utility?

 

[TheManWhoWantsAComputer]

No I disabled oc but i'll try reinstalling drivers

Still completely stuck at 139mhz no ups or downs just a straight line

What model 1060 is it? Perhaps there's a bios update for the graphics card itself.

Have you tried plugging it into another PC? Just trying to make sure it isn't the graphics card itself that's the problem.

Its a Zotac GTX 1060 Mini 3gb, i don't have another pc to test it with

Is it new or used one? Perhaps from some crypto-currency mining rig?

 

[TheManWhoWantsAComputer]

completely new

plus it wasnt doing this until now

 

[TheManWhoWantsAComputer]

Please, I have no idea why it is doing this

 

[TheManWhoWantsAComputer]

It doesn't seem to go over 756mv at anytime, could that be an issue? I'm not the greatest at computers

MERGED QUESTION
Question from TheManWhoWantsAComputer : "GPU is acting weird. Clock speed broken"

Being honest here, it started after I downloaded cheatengine 6.7 from cheatengine.org
but I still don't understand why the core clock is stuck, even at 100% load from 3DMark it won't even go to 140mhz it stays on 139mhz all the time, this is a fairly new card, it wasn't used before me. I've uninstalled cheat engine and the stuff it happen to come with and it has done nothing

My driver version is 385.41, sorry for posting this 2 times but the first time wasnt detailed and I have done antivirus scans and nothing was found

Please keep the issue to 1 thread.

 

[TheManWhoWantsAComputer]

If this helps, it's stuck at 756mv max

Dumb question. Is the monitor connected to the GPU instead of motherboard?

 

[TheManWhoWantsAComputer]

Well I sent it out awhile ago to the manufacturer but yes my monitors were connected to the GPU when I sill had my gpu that is..
