Hello everyone, here are the details of my setup. The CPU is an R9 5900X, RAM is 32GB, the motherboard is ASRock Tiachi X570, the GPU is a Founders RTX3080 Ti, and I’ve swapped out the thermal pad on the PCIe slot. The power supply has two separate 8-pin PCIe connections, which seems fine. When playing games, frame rates drop from over 100fps to around 50fps after using monitoring tools like Rivatuner MSI. After some testing with Burner GPU and a hardware monitor, everything appears normal except for the GPU power usage dropping from 280-350 watts to 120-150 watts while maintaining 99% utilization. I’ve reinstalled the drivers and adjusted settings, but no bottlenecks were found. Any suggestions?
