Hi there, I have a little problem with my GPU that i bought recently, it's a Gigabyte G1 gaming GTX 970. I've been messing around a bit with overclocking, and have been running benchmarks to find the most stable overclock for my card, however I ran into an issue which concerns my power usage. I'd been running a benchmark in which my graphics driver crashed (overclocking a little too high, oops!) but then, when I lowered my settings, my power usage was capped at 58%. So now I was getting only around half the performance I was supposed to be getting, which lowered my framerate to around 30-ish.
I've tried restarting my computer, but it doesn't seem to fix it. It still sits at 58% while I'm running the benchmark, while before it was running at about 112%.
I've run into this problem before, but it had usually fixed itself by the time I booted up the computer again.
Any ideas what's going on and how I can fix it?
Thanks in advance.
