Posted December 25, 2018 I have a Zotac GTX 1070 mini I had it for a year so far, since I built my rig I have been experiencing unpleasant micro stutters and laggy game play but I managed a year with this now when I play a game or fire up Heaven benchmark I hit Power limit and voltage limit for no reason I haven't touched the card or over clock it Specs: R5 1600 @ 3.5 GHZ 8 gb Ram dual channel 2933 MHZ 500 GB WD green 500 W Coolermaster 80+ I tried DDU and checked the system for malware please help me I attached GPU-Z readings and HW monitor's 123.CSV GPU-Z Sensor Log 102.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 25, 2018 Due to the smaller size of the PCB, there's not a lot of room for extra power delivery circuitry that you find on larger cards. For example, here's the PCB of the 1080 Mini: So I imagine the card can't really push much in terms of extra power. I have a blog! And a list of guides I've posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yah I do realize that, what I am saying is that I didn't over clock it and I am hitting power limit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case it's hitting the power limit on its own. Unless you're not getting base clocks, you don't technically have a problem. I have a blog!

I lowered the temp on it I got it to 60c 65c and looks good but what I am still getting is this performance drops, I go from 60fps down to 5 fps or 20 or 31 with core clock dropping down. any Idea what could be causing this to happen.
