Hi, i know, that this thread is here for many times already, but my graphics card ( GTX 560 directCU2 OC http://pctuning.tyden.cz/hardware/graficke-karty/21052-test-dvou-geforce-gtx-560-gtx-460-na-steroidech?start=3 ) is doing that.
I play, usage at 100%, temperature around 65°C. After a while (10 min) the gpu clock MHz drops down for a 50% (high FPS dropdown in game). Fans are still, worikng at 40% max. CPU also does not loose performance.
I suspect PSU, according to other discusions here on this topic. So I tried to use other cables to connect my GPU, does not help. Cleened everything, it heleped - after cleaning i played 3 hours without problems, then I minimized, turned the Utorrent on, went back to game and...BAM! FPS and usage dropdown.
So, I tried to connect both endings of 6pin reduction to my PSU. This GPU has 2x 6pin. One of these goes from my PSU , for second one, I have reduction, as you can see on the picture in the link i posted above.
And this 6 pin reduction has two endings, each with one white reduction (molex is it called?). Until today I had only one molex connected to PSU, today Im about to use both connected.
Is there a chance this will work? If not, im probbably buying new PSU.
Now i have tihs graphics, AMD FX 8120 3100, 8GB RAM, 550W PSU.
Thanks for potential advises
