Throttling? How's the load on the gpu while you're benchmarking?

Eh, seems okay then.

Did you try rebooting, setting the clocks and then benchmark it?

'Cause the only thing you'd see if your clocks were too high for the core/vram would be artifacts or a black screen, never a reduction in performance unless if it were caused by throttling which doesn't seem to be.

That seemed to work
