I have two 2080 Ti GPUs. One is fine and gets the power it needs. The other floats around 5 to 15 watts.

I swapped the one out for a 3060 ti, now my original 2080 ti is doing the same thing.

What are you doing that uses 2 gpu’s? If the game/application cannot utilities 2 gpu’s then 1 gpu will sit at idle while the other does all the work.

When I'm not gaming, I have it mining. I had them working and then I add the 2080 ti, it wouldn't mine so I thought it might have been defective, so I put my 3060 ti back and now my original 2080 ti isn't drawing power like it was.

I think its some setting or a driver issue but idk. Im not sure what to check for either in the setting or the bios
