GTX 1050 Ti Core clock and memory clock drops, causing fps drop

[Pio Soesetio]

My gtx 1050 Ti, on ASUS TUF FX504, is having fps drops, which i'm sure is caused by core clock and memory clock dropping so low suddenly. This didn't happen before. I was having problems with my cpu. Got it fixed on the service center (check the issue on my previous post). But now cpu's fine but the gpu is having problems. I'm not sure why it drops, temperatures are fine, around 60-70 degrees while gaming. Tried upating the drivers. Doesn't seem to help anything. Please help. Thanks.

Please show us some:

 

Cpu, gpu, vram, ram:

Temps, load, clock speeds

 

In the problematic scenario.

Any additional information required or is that enough?

Nice, finally someone who provides data! I'll look into this asap

Thanks for helping, here's another data on subnautica.

You're hitting power and temp limits. I really don't get the temp limit since it seems fine but the power limit is believable on that laptop. They have a rep for not so great build quality

yea temp limit's weird. It wasn't like this before though. Didn't know why this happened.

time for some undervolting

Undervolting? Can't do that. I'm on a laptop. temps aren't high anyway.

You can. The CPU can be done with Intel XTU, the GPU can be done with afterburner.

 

undervolting also drops power draw

Where, isn't the voltage slider locked on msi afterburner. For cpu, i already undervolt it.

you can unlock that in the settings menu of Afterburner. Check the boxes of  'enable hardware control and monitoring', 'unlock voltage control' and 'unlock voltage monitoring'.

 

Then you have to use Afterburner's voltage/frequency curve editor. See that bar chart button on the left of the 'core clock' slider?

wait up let me try

Oh, ok cool. Let me try tweaking that. Thanks.

Do you think it needs to be overvolted? Cause it's power limit throttling (?)

overvolting increases power draw and heat output, so you should lower the voltage instead.

 

That's also why you should use the curve editor, because the voltage slider of Pascal cards only allows going up, unlike AMD cards which can go both ways

Tried undervolting it. The core clock stays stable when stress tested using furmark, but in games. it still drops sometimes idk why.

by how much? 100mV?

 

also check windows power settings. It's inside Windows control panel, power settings (battery icon). Make sure it's not in powersave.

Battery's is in max performance. That's the undervolt pic.

Additional info : I tested it using furmark (5 min), and it says limits : power, voltage, vo

But it ran constantly at 1913 Mhz. So I don't think that it is a problem as long as it is running constant.

but when i test it in games. The core clock still drops.

I guess you have tried the 'DDU reinstall driver' methood?

what if you set a lower clock and lower voltage, say 1750MHz at 900mV? If this doesnt help then I'm out of ideas.

What's DDU? Tried lowering the clock speed to -500Mhz (max using slider) but not undervolting it yet, no difference. But i'll try undervolting it.

DDU is the name of the software, meant for removing video drivers completely.

What do you suggest? try remove the drivers using ddu and then reinstalling them? I updated them a few moments ago tho.

try that. sometimes drivers bug out for no apparent reason.
