Hello,
I have recently noticed an issue with my GPU, which is that it's not boosting up to the 970MHz which provides good performance, but it stays at 405MHz in CS:GO. This is a real issue, as my fps is now 40-60 in game at a lower resolution (1280x1024) as opposed to 100 or so in game at 1920x1080, or 130+ (from memory) at 1280x1024. I know that it's not boosting up because CAM Overlay in-game says that the card is at 405MHz, temperatures are basically idle temps (30-35 degrees) and when alt-tabbed, MSi Afterburner doesn't show any increase in clock speeds anywhere on the chart.
Again, this has only happened recently. The only changes I've done recently (from memory) are a fix (in Powershell) for me not being able to right-click taskbar icons and some Windows updates (4 forced updates in 4 days) and changing the "active hours" or something like that so that it wouldn't do it in the middle of working. I have also changed some power settings to save some electricity when I'm not using the system.
Full system specs:
Case: Antec GX300 Windowed
PSU: Antec Edge 750w 80+ Gold Fully Modular
Motherboard: ASRock Fatal1ty H170 Performance

Case fans: Intakes: 2x CoolerMaster XFAN120 (Red LED)
Exhaust:1x Coolermaster BladeMaster Xtraflow120 (Red LED)
LEDs: Some random 30cm cheapo red LED strip I found on eBay for like $2
Mousepad: Logitech G440 Hard Mousepad
DVD Drive: ASUS DRW-24D3ST Black 24x DVD-RW Writer (OEM)
This issue was fixed yesterday by a GeForce Experience / GeForce Driver Update to my graphics card, but as of today (A restart) it is now broken again.
Any help is appreciated.
