[SOLVED] RX 580 drop in performance overnight

[darkom1973]

one day i turn off the PC and when i boot it up the next day it seems like it lost 50% of its power, all games got lower fps and userbenchmark shows horrible results (25% average) and it shows my RAM is running at 2133mhz when its 2 3K mhz sticks, any ideas? newest drivers (20.11.1) installed

full system spec? include make and model of the psu
what the cpu/gpu temp?

 

[darkom1973]

MB: Biostar B350ET2 AM4
CPU: AMD ryzen 5 1600
GPU: RX 580 8GB MSI
PSU: some 450W one, forgot name, is 80+ rated
i dont know temps, but with userbench it shouldnt heat up at all and the fans are quiet, if it was getting hot the RX 580 would be a jet
RAM: 2x8GB CL15 3000mhz RAM

https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/35609332 the userbench run

do u have latest gpu drivers installed

 

[RandomGuy216]

for temps you could try downloading msi afterburner or hwinfo and see how hot it gets

 

[mdd1963]

Often WIndows updates can play havoc with overwriting chipset and/or GPU drivers, instead inserting some bogus MS-supplied default driver set..; reinstall assorted drivers with latest just to rule that out...

A quick session with HWMonitor and CPU-Z should confirm the CPU is still ramping up to desired clock speeds without throttling, etc..

ram not running at 3000.

open the pc and check the psu make and model

 

[darkom1973]

i fixed the RAm, turns out XMP wasnt enabled, GPU problem persists and no its not temps, even if i leave the case open in cold air while just starting it up it still shows 20% score from the usually 60% on userbench, the PSU is a fortronn 450W one, and when this issue started happening i didnt download any updates or do any change in settings

 

[darkom1973]

i also did install new gpu drivers on top, no change at all

 

[darkom1973]

the PC was running fine in this configuration for half a year, its not a new build or anything

any chance the gpu is set on power saving modes or smoething simmilar within radeon settings

 

[darkom1973]

any chance the gpu is set on power saving modes or smoething simmilar within radeon settings

where would i find that in rad. settings?

 

[darkom1973]

radeon chill is off and windows power saving settings are on high performance

by any chance is free sync turned on check pcie cable to make sure their not loose iswell

 

[darkom1973]

so i did userbench with GPU-Z on, it doesnt go above 50 celsius and clocks go as they should (GPU 1366mhz, mem 2000mhz), but it still has low score and still lags at games it didnt at before

 

[darkom1973]

my monitor says freesync but its turned off in rad settings, no way to set refresh rate on my monitor

 

[darkom1973]

by any chance is free sync turned on check pcie cable to make sure their not loose iswell

didnt think of that, i have 2 inserted, so one mightve gone out with the vibrations

is it a possibility to test the gpu in another system?

no

 

[RandomGuy216]

does device manager show any errors

 

[darkom1973]

it says the device functioning normally

 

[darkom1973]

im gonna try if one of the power cables arent out

 

[RandomGuy216]

im gonna try if one of the power cables arent out

if none of that works try downlaoding ddu driver uninstaller unininstalling current Radeon gpu drivers and re downaloding the latest driver again just incase its a driver related issue

 

[darkom1973]

it says to remove C:/AMD is not recommended, should i do it? never used ddu
