hello,
I've a gtx 1070 g1 gaming, oc'ed at 2126 mhz of core clock.
I notice that, as the temperature rises, the frequencies are reduced slightly..(Ex. At 30 degrees it goes to the maximum frequency, a 40 goes to 2114, a 50 goes to 2101 and so on)

Why?

sorry for my bad english xD

That's just how pascel works. Not sure why, my 1060 does the same thing. GPU boost 3.0 is controlling the clock speeds to some degree even with a manual overclock, my guess is the core just becomes more unstable as it heats up so it lowers clocks a bit to keep the card stable. Pascel cards on water with very good temps tend not to drop clocks at all, so it must automatically change based on temps regardless of your manual overclock.
