I NEED HELP PLEASE!!

I got a single RX 470 MSI Armor edition, core clocked to 1400MHz and memory to 2145MHz, +50% limit power, Voltage parameteres on Auto. Using Wattman, drivers 19.8.1. Card reaches its max power (127w).
I use nicehash to mine, I get about 45mh/s mining Lyra2rev3, and sometimes it switches to phoenixminer and does 22mh/s, using above 100w. But then, after like 3-4 minutes, it caps at 90W and does only 11Mhs, so it auto-switches back to TeamRedMiner (lyra2rev3). Is this a bug or does the programs limits the card to 90W for some reason?

Note* Card reaches 127W with full load on other miners as well.

you should know that Polaris gpus (470 is polaris) are good for mining because you can heavily undervolt and in parallel overclock memory.
under no condition you should sun stock voltages of over 1v - safe area is around 850-875mv and also do not go above 1300MHz core.
