Cause the core clock drops to 930 mhz as soon as the memory is above +400 . Card temp hovers around 45-50c.
When a card thermal throttles it at least gets high enough to produce heat , my trio x does not even achieve that.
I experienced today my friend xc3 ultra thermal throttling and its not at all how my card behaves . His card hit 99mhs and stayed there for 5 min before throttling and crumbling down to 85 mh while temps were reaching 70C.
Pretty sure its a power limit issue . Some have fixed that by flashing the bios with a different brand bios with higher power limit .
You're only looking at one temp sensor. I know because I have the same issue with mine, where gpu temp looks low but there's more under the surface. If you have software like hwinfo64/gpu-z, you may notice some entries for performance limit. This will tell you whether it's thermal or power limit hindering your performance. The general consensus seems to be memory overheating with OC, and I've noticed thermal throttle being the performance limit even with low GPU temp reported in afterburner.
Well hwinfo is showing me it’s a power limit issue . Under thermal performance it says NO . Power performance limit shows YES .
I assumed it means its not a thermal problem . Am i wrong ?
Also like i explained before , thermal throttles is not instant , ur card hits high mh’s and then throttles down . Right off the bat my card throttles to 930 core clock if memory is higher than +400. I doubt thermal throttling happens soon as u launch Phoenixminer .
