andy0000002 · Dec 28, 2013

I'm chinese and my english isn't very good so please answer me in easy words.
And I don't know much about computer so please tell me a easy way to solve my problems thank you!!!

My graphics card isNVIDIA GeForce GTX 660, I can play games like AssasinsCreed4 or Call of Duty Ghosts and Battle Field before very smoothly, but one day when i'm playing AssasinsCreed4 i found that it's lagging and the fps is only 7~9, and i found that my Gpu load goes to 95% ,temperature to 62c,i went to lots of websites but no chinese websites have information about my problem, finally i found there are some people having similar problems like me in this website,i think maybe i got a bitcoin mining virus, but when i use Microsoft Essential and other antivirus i got nothing and i can't understand what those solutions are talking about so i decide to create a new thread for help , please help me! Thank you!!!

Could be because of a driver issue.
Try to update your GPU drivers.

You can try and revert back to an older and more stable driver.

And which software are you using to monitor your GPU??

Can you post a screenshot.

Can you please use something like MSI afterburner and post the whole screenshot of the graph.

A graph is usually better as it shows the various parameters for a given period of time.

Everything in this graph looks fine.

Can you please scroll down the graph and tell me what your gpu clock speed was during this time.

Maybe something (other than temps) is causing your gpu to throttle down to lower clockspeeds.

Everything looks fine.

Maybe the culprit is the driver. Go to Nvidia's website find an older WHQL (not Beta) driver for your card. Download and install it.

See if this helps.

Do post the results.

The yellow color shows that the power target of your gpu is at abnormally high levels. That is strange since you haven't changed anything manually. Something is really wrong.

No, is this with another driver. If so then which one??

Also did ever do a bios flash of your GPU??
The issue could also be due to the bios..

Theironlefty :

but it doesn't overheat before, if the problem is caused because i dont have enough fans it should over heat since the first time i use my computer.

ps. i checked the fans and there is no dust.

andy0000002 · Dec 28, 2013

Theironlefty :

do you mean increase the fanspeed?

i increased the fanspeed in msi but the temperature only droped to 5x,should i even increase more speed?
im afraid the computer will be overloaded.

andy0000002 · Dec 28, 2013

Theironlefty :

do you know where can i find solution about this problem?
other websites or something?

andy0000002 · Dec 28, 2013

oh i pressed the solution button accidently, how do i cancle it?

andy0000002 · Dec 28, 2013

I found what caused the problem!!!
the temperature increases when i connect to the internet!
what should i do?

Gpu load goes to 95% temperature to 62c and many games lag
