Question in game performance cut in half after powering off.

[Dyynomite]

So, I'm having an issue with my GPU (4070 Super). Whenever I install drivers, it runs perfectly until I turn off the PC for the day. The next day the in game performance gets cut in half. For example, on Doom Eternal after a clean driver install I get 180 FPS, but after a restart I'm lucky to hit 90.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the files manually, but I have also done it with DDU. This also happens when I just update from Nividia, like when they released a new update on the 24th. Same thing every time. The GPU runs great until I turn the PC off and restart it. Then I need to reinstall drivers to make it work again.

Any ideas as to why this could be happening?

RTX 4070 Super, Ryzen 7700x, 32 gigs of DDR5 Ram, MSI Pro B650 - P Wifi, BE Quiet M12 850 Watt Power supply

Been a long time but things I remember that would kick the driver on restart.

Un registered Windows. But again that was XP days.

Missing motherboard drivers.

Wrong date and time.

Missing some windows update.

.nets needing updating.

Unsigned drivers or at least drivers windows felt were not signed.

If this was a laptop not getting GPU driver from manufacture. That was a few years back but still.

Not installing drivers as administrator.

Bios needing updating.

Do you have the AMD graphics driver software installed or is the onboard disabled/using windows default drivers?

It would be worth checking MSI Afterburner/GPU-Z to see what the card power usage/clockspeeds are when it's working right and also when it's not.

I disabled the integrated graphics, and again, it worked until I booted up the PC again. The Temps are the same, not sure about clock speed. But, I do know that what the card is working correctly, the CPU temps are much higher than the CPU temps when it's not working properly, meaning it's getting bottlenecked when the GPU isn't working properly.

Also last but not least is a bad card. I know your card is brand spanking new but it happens. Can you test RTX 4070s in another PC or another card in your PC and see if driver issues continue.

Or a driver conflict with something else running that only shows up once you kick up a game but end result is GPU driver takes a hit.
