When playing games for about 30mins, my gpu gets stuck at the boost clock, and my fps in any game that i play TANKS.

The only way to fix the problem is to restart my computer, but even when I do that, the problem repeats itself as soon as I play a game.

My gpu is a gtx 680, not overclcoked.

I tried changing my power settings to adaptive and making sure that my power settings in windows 10 are at the "adaptive" setting as well, but with no luck....

can anyone help?

Ah, well I figured out the problem. I had a bitcoin miner on my computer lmao. After I removed that and set Kboost on evga precision x, everything's been fine. I'm sure I don't need to have K-Boost enabled, but I like it like this.

Its just weird to think that a bitminer would screw up a gpu like that, its weird how it locked it on its boost clock and made games unplayable even at 99% usage.
