i don't know why my grafic dont use power. the game go low fps after 2 minutes.
1.jpg

you can see grafic activy is 100 % but gpu is 214 mhz !!!
( in back ground furmark is going 720 p test)
my grafic card is asus rx460 2gb oc and gpu normal should be about 1090 mhz.
my psu is coolermaster 550 with intel 7500 and asus z170 pro gaming.

it happen some monthe ago and not fixed . i still looking for reason
 
Do you live in a place that's extremely hot
 
I would try the following...

Uninstall any overclocking software like MSI Afterburner etc as they conflict with Global Wattman.

Reboot computer into Safe Mode and use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to uninstall AMD Radeon Drivers.

Reboot computer into Normal Mode.

Install AMD Radeon Drivers.

Reboot and test.
 
Also you can try card in 2nd PCI-e slot if ^^^^^ doesn't help

Have you saved any profiles in Radeon Settings?
Temp seems fine as does Memory speed, it's only the core speed that is reduced.
Core speed should be 1224
Memory speed 1750
 
something definitely hookie with your gpu on the desktop alone your gpu core clock should be reading 300MHz not 214MHz I'd have to say that somewhere somehow some setting has become borked I'd defo do the DDU and reinstall the driver

214MHz is the minimum state for that GPU.
 
I don't think it's a power problem at all.

i do it completly as you say but still Fluctuate gpu core clock and voltage. i think its about using power . i realy confused
 
What do you mean by fluctuating clocks and voltage. That sounds like normal behavior to me.

We can't really help you unless you give us more details than this vague statement.
 
game is in windowed mode?
 
see i run disshonerd 2 . the fps in first minutte is about 60 but after that it go low about 16 . before played dishonerd 2 very good and with no problem.
also when i played my power fan make a good sound it means power suply work but now there is no its not work highly
 
So maybe it's PSU issue or even mobo not able to deliver 60-75W through pci-e.

1) Try another PSU
2) Try gpu in another rig.
 
Try running that game with lower settings, possibly the 2Gb Vram isn't enough to cope with any in game updates they may have done
 
I would consider a fresh install of Windows at this point. Something might be borked.

This would eliminate any software related issue. If that doesn't improve anything, that would narrow it down to a hardware problem.

I'm pretty certian that running FurMark will cause your card to do just this in order to protect your VRM's...is it happening when you do NOT run FurMark?
 
do you use 3d party for overclock? happen to me when using trixx or msafterburner. using radeon control panel was usless
 
when using afterburner or trixx everything fu cked up badly and even if i try to set new clock speed it didnt change. remove all these 3d party overclock program and use only radeon setting and it will be fine

i think i had miss understanding. i install this after you say . i had no any kind this software on my pc
 
looks to me that under that vddc your card is not ''boosting'' to max bios set volts [.8438 idle voltage to 1.15 load voltage ] I would think to hold its full load stable clocking [bios set ] it should be around 1.xxx maybe say 1.15v

I don't know much about a 460 but there is a idle volt that's low and then when the card gets a load it ''boosts to the max bios setting ssay to 1.15 and maybe why your gpu-z looks so erratic under load

like a guy said above test the card in another computer

I was looking for a review site with gpu-z shots to show this not even techpowerup and its there own software ,,,lol.....


if you had installed a newer driver may try to do a clean uninstall of it and reinstall or just try a older one that 18.9.2 is a latest driver and could have a bug that in turn may cause this ?

with that I would install a know working older driver and retest things
 
your screen shot shows you running AMD Crimson 16.6 why are you running such an old driver you need to be running one of the Adrenalin versions the latest of which 18.9.2 or if you prefer to stick to an WHQL version then Adrenalin Edition 18.5.1 you can get either from here

https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/radeon-400-series/radeon-rx-400-series/radeon-rx-460
i try all versions

tnx my friend for your explaining. i try all driver version and uninstalling drivers by ddu in safe mode but problem dont solve. i tst psu and it hasnt problem. i almost pretty sure its my grafuc card problem .
