Hello,
My gtx970 is running with PSU 1100W. So I know there is more than enough juice for it. Its been working fine on all games for past couple of years but now all of a sudden, the frame rates have dropped across all games which were totally fine until now... For example, crysis 3 used to play at 50-60 FPS but now with same settings is between 10-20 FPS!. I have installed PrecisionX and have been monitoring the GPU clock, when its working fine, it used to be around 1000-1200MHz for the most part which would explain the normal FPS but I can clearly see the low FPS is directly associated with that clock throttling back down almost in a min of starting the game down to 200 MHz. I am not sure why is this happening with nothing changed on my system.
I have gone through lot of posts and tried lot of stuff and even had the Card replaced with no luck. I suspected it is PSU but again how can 1100W PSU be not enough all of a sudden. Restarted the PC, disabled and enabled the drivers, reinstalled diff versions of drivers, removed secondary drives to reduce the load on PSU.
I am completely lost on how to get this thing working again and not sure where and why its getting bogged down. It randomly works fine for few mins after a restart. Is this somekind of a known bug with the 970's or its drivers?.. Any help or suggestions pls?

Make sure you let them know that. When (if,but i don't see why not) getting another psu from the rma would i probably prefer that in the system over the CX,but that's up to you.
