GTX 760 under 99 percent load but 40 degrees celcius

[ckthan28]

Hi, after the most recent Nvidia driver update, my gpu is underperforming. In fact its under full load but it is at a low temperature of 40 degrees celcius. How do I solve this problem?

Double check your core clock while gaming (either using third party overcloking tool OSD or using gpu-z).

You must be living in a very cold environment.
What kind of games are you playing?

So what can i do after checking the core clocks? Sorry im abit new to this website im trying to learn the ropes here. Haha

GPU temperature should be higher than the CPU.
Double check to see if it is indeed the GPU is running at 40C or the CPU.

Using tool like rivatuner (usually come together with third party overclocking tool such as MSI AB) you can view lots of gpu parameter (and some cpu stuff too). You said that your gpu was underperforming so you can look at this parameter and try looking what's the problem is. Well you can learn abput it one step at a time. That's what i do too in the past. Personally i have OSD turn all the time (some people might not like this but the OSD can easily be toggle on and off). Whenever i see something off i would see OSD first.

yeah my core clock was pretty low. it was at about 535mhz

for sure it was my gpu that is 50-40 degrees. the fps was also significantly lower

so my core clock apparently in a game is about 534mhz which the usual should be about 1000. so what should i do??

Try to reinstall the driver in the following way:

• 
  download latest driver manually
  uninstall the graphics card from device manager
  reboot the system
  Install nvidia driver.
