Hi,
I've got a Gigabyte GTX 1060 Windforce OC 6GB and wanted to see how far i could push it, using MSI Afterburner. My PSU is 750w 80+, so that shouldn't be an issue.
After a few hours of tests, i have reached a stable maximum of 2100MHz core and 4800MHz memory. From what i read, this is a great oc for memory. That's nice. The card stays at 60°C, fans are set at 90%, Voltage is set at 100%, Power is set at 116% and Temperature limit is set at 92°C.
However, the core does go down to 2038MHz after a short while, sometimes rising to 2050MHz, then going back down. Any ideas why?

It performs well under stress tests by maximizing the card's performance and maintaining its highest configuration. If similar behavior appears while gaming, it's likely caused by fluctuating GPU load, which adjusts its frequency.
