My GPU core clock is way lower than it should be. I'm using Unity but this happens in games and other apps. The usage says 100% but the core clock is a measly 250mhz. What could cause this?

Windows 11 x64 latest patches and updates. GeForce 3080 TI, latest driver as of Sept. 15, 2022.

  • Did you connect your monitor to your onboard graphics by accident?

  • Did you install crapware like RoG software or Armoury Crate? They might be putting your GPU in some sort of "Eco" mode.

  • Check your Windows power settings to make sure you're not in some low power mode.

  • Does a restart fix it? Maybe do a clean re-install of the nVidia drivers.

Check and make sure that crapware like Armoury Crate or EVGA Precision didn't put your GPU into some sort of "Eco mode" or reduced power limit.
